Daniels is set to star in the forthcoming four-hour CBS Studios miniseries based on James Comey’s bestselling book, A Higher Loyalty: Truth, Lies and Leadership.

Daniels will star as Comey, a former FBI Director who was dismissed from his role after President Trump objected to Comey’s handling of the investigation into Hilary Clinton’s emails.

Adapting the book to the small screen is Captain Phillips scribe, Billy Ray. Ray said of Daniels’ casting: “Jeff is so perfect for this part. Great actor, instant integrity, loads of warmth, intelligence, complexity and gravitas. We talked backstage after I saw him in To Kill a Mockingbird on Broadway, and I knew I was looking at the only person who could play Jim Comey. Lucky for me, he said yes.”
