Robert De Niro Stars in Netflix's Political Thriller 'Zero Day'
Robert De Niro stars as former U.S. President George Mullen in Netflix’s upcoming limited series Zero Day, a political thriller set to premiere on February 20, 2025. The six-episode series, co-created by Eric Newman (Narcos) and Noah Oppenheim, follows Mullen as he leads the Zero Day Commission to uncover the perpetrators of a catastrophic cyberattack that has left thousands dead and the nation in chaos.
Angela Bassett plays the current U.S. President Evelyn Mitchell, who enlists Mullen to lead the investigation, granting him unprecedented authority to bypass legal protocols. The trailer reveals a tense dynamic as Mullen grapples with the moral and political fallout of his actions, while also confronting his own dark secrets. The series explores themes of disinformation, power struggles, and the erosion of civil liberties in the face of national crisis.
The star-studded cast includes Jesse Plemons, Lizzy Caplan, Connie Britton, Joan Allen, Matthew Modine, Dan Stevens, and Gaby Hoffmann. Lesli Linka Glatter (Mad Men, The Leftovers) directs all six episodes, with De Niro and Jonathan Glickman serving as executive producers.
De Niro, in his first major TV role, described the project as akin to filming three feature films back-to-back, praising the streamlined process of working with a single director. The series promises a gripping narrative, blending political intrigue with personal drama, as Mullen risks everything to uncover the truth behind the devastating attack.
Zero Day arrives on Netflix on February 20, 2025.
