First images from Aaron Sorkin’s The Trial of the Chicago 7

July 23, 2020 by Amie Cranswick

Netflix has released a batch of first look images for writer-director Aaron Sorkin’s (The Newsroom, Molly’s Game) upcoming crime drama The Trial of the Chicago 7 featuring Sacha Baron Cohen as Abbie Hoffman, Danny Flaherty as John Froines, Eddie Redmayne as Tom Hayden, Jeremy Strong as Jerry Rubin, Mark Rylance as William Kuntsler, Kelvin Harrison Jr. as Fred Hampton, Yahya Abdul-Mateen II as Bobby Seale, J.C. Mackenzie as Thomas Foran and Joseph Gordon-Levitt as Richard Schultz;  take a look here…

What was intended to be a peaceful protest at the 1968 Democratic National Convention turned into a violent clash with police and the National Guard. The organizers of the protest—including Abbie Hoffman, Jerry Rubin, Tom Hayden and Bobby Seale—were charged with conspiracy to incite a riot and the trial that followed was one of the most notorious in history.

The Trial of the Chicago 7 arrives on Netflix on October 16th.
