A behind-the-scenes look at “The West Wing” reunion special airing on HBO Max on October 15.
Officially titled “A West Wing Special to Benefit When We All Vote” this theatrical recreation of past episode “Hartsfield’s Landing” reunites Martin Sheen, Dulé Hill, Janel Moloney, Richard Schiff, Bradley Whitford, Allison Janney, and Rob Lowe with showrunner Aaron Sorkin who is executive producing the stage operation along with Thomas Schlamme and Casey Patterson. Rob Paine is co-executive producer and Schlamme will serve as director (which is no surprise as he’s directed several episodes from the beloved series previously).
The performance will also include act breaks with guest appearances from former First Lady Michelle Obama, President Bill Clinton, Lin-Manuel Miranda and additional surprises.
