Catch a Glimpse of ‘The Altruists’: Netflix’s Dive into the FTX Controversy Trailer!
If you’re a fan of tech headlines and enjoy a bit of intrigue, this season is shaping up to be exciting. Not only is there a documentary about Elizabeth Holmes by Nathan Fielder, but Netflix is also releasing “The Altruists” on November 19. This series will explore the tumultuous saga of Sam Bankman-Fried and Caroline Ellison, whose actions led to the downfall of FTX and their subsequent imprisonment.
The timing aligns perfectly with the Thanksgiving holiday, unless another unexpected incident involving Sam disrupts our plans.
Check out the trailer featuring Anthony Boyle as Sam Bankman-Fried and Julia Garner as Caroline Ellison:
It’s surprising to see Hollywood take an interest in the complexities surrounding effective altruism, but we hope Netflix captures the unique essence of this narrative appropriately.
“From the outset, I was incredibly intrigued by the true stories of both Sam and Caroline,” co-showrunner Graham Moore mentioned during a recent interview with Netflix. “These are characters I could never have invented; they are far too compelling for me to create as a writer.”
