The six-episode series boasts an impressive cast including Guillaume Gallienne, Andrea Riseborough, and Hugh Grant, enhancing its appeal. Under the guidance of Tracy as showrunner and writer, and with a writing team featuring talents like Seth Reiss, Sarah DeLappe, Gary Shteyngart, and Jen Spyra, The Regime is poised to be a standout miniseries on HBO Max. The trailer's release has certainly set high expectations for the series, previously titled "The Palace," and fans of political dramas are eagerly awaiting its premiere on Max. With its intriguing plot and stellar cast, The Regime is shaping up to be an essential watch for anyone interested in the intricacies of power and the human stories behind political facades.
