Julia Garner is in talks for the main character in an upcoming Netflix miniseries about the story of FTX’s success and downfall. We’ve learned this information from our reliable sources.
An upcoming series, yet unnamed, is set to delve into the intriguing tale of the well-known cryptocurrency exchange. The narrative will be told from the perspective of the romantic relationship between Caroline Ellison and Sam Bankman-Fried. Reports indicate that Garner is close to finalizing a deal to portray Ellison. It’s been revealed that Netflix has ordered eight episodes, intending to start filming during the summer season.
Reps for Netflix declined to comment.
In this endeavor, Graham Moore, known for his work on “The Imitation Game” and “The Outfit,” assumes roles as writer, executive producer, and co-showrunner. Jacqueline Hoyt, recognized from “The Leftovers” and “The Good Wife,” is also on board as an executive producer and co-showrunner. The Obamas, through their Higher Ground banner, will serve as executive producers alongside Vinnie Malhotra.

Returning to Netflix, Garner will reprise her role in a new production.

Additionally, she was recognized with an Emmy nomination for best actress in a limited series for “Inventing Anna.
Beyond her work on Netflix with shows like “The Get Down” and “Maniac,” and appearances in series such as “The Americans” and “Dirty John,” Garner is also set to appear in the upcoming Marvel movie, “Fantastic Four,” where she takes on the role of The Silver Surfer.

Established in 2019, FTX rapidly grew to become a prominent global cryptocurrency exchange. However, in 2022, the company suffered a major collapse with allegations of billions of dollars in customer funds being misplaced and federal probes ongoing. Founder Sam Bankman-Fried and CEO of Alameda Research, Bryan Ellison, were later charged for wire fraud, securities violations, money laundering among other offenses. Amazon was planning to produce a TV series about FTX in 2022 as well.
