Claire Danes and Dakota Fanning have been cast as Hillary Clinton at various stages of her life for the upcoming series ‘Rodham’ based on the novel by Curtis Sittenfeld.
“Rodham” - published in May 2020, and a New York Times bestseller - imagined an alternative universe in which Hillary Rodham Clinton met and dated Bill Clinton at Yale Law School, but never married him. Instead of the life Clinton has actually led, in “Rodham,” she goes on to thrive as a Northwestern University professor, and launches an eventual presidential run in 2016. Real-world events - such as rape accusations against Bill Clinton, and Donald Trump as a significant figure in politics - also play out in Sittenfeld’s novel, but in vastly altered ways.”
