Now, the president is left with two choices: either protect the country, as Angela Bassett’s character, Mitchell, advises him to do, or reveal the truth about his daughter to the American public.
Speaking about the show’s ending, creator Eric Newman revealed: “The truth is hard to come by, and it’s a very lonely place to be for an individual—to say, ‘I’m going to speak the truth’ when so many don’t want to. And you might not be rewarded for it. In fact, you might be punished for it, but it’s still important. It still really matters.”
Moreover, Lizzy Caplan and Matthew Modine, who play Alex and Speaker Dreyer in the series, were aware from the beginning that they were the culprits. In a conversation with Netflix’s Tudum, the showrunner added: “I think I told them both in the casting process, ‘And by the way, you’re the bad guy, but no one will know that until the end.’”
All episodes of Zero Day are now available to stream on Netflix.
