Exclusive: The Girls On The Bus cast interviews with Melissa Benoist, Carla Gugino, Natasha Behnam, Christina Elmore and more
Hitting Max on March 14 is the new political drama series The Girls on the Bus, starring Melissa Benoist, Carla Gugino, Natasha Behnam, Christina Elmore, Brandon Scott, with Griffin Dunne, Mark Consuelos, and Scott Foley.
THE GIRLS ON THE BUS invites viewers to hit the campaign trail alongside four female journalists, each of them different in their reporting styles and personalities. The story centers on Sadie McCarthy (Melissa Benoist), a journalist who romanticizes a bygone era of campaign reporting and scraps her whole life for a shot at covering a presidential candidate for a paper of record. Sadie joins the bus and eventually bonds with three female competitors, Grace (Carla Gugino), Lola (Natasha Behnam), and Kimberlyn (Christina Elmore). Despite their differences, the women become a found family with a front-row seat to the greatest soap opera in town - the battle for the White House.
THE GIRLS ON THE BUS, from writers and executive producers Amy Chozick and Julie Plec, is inspired by Chozick’s experiences as a political reporter on the campaign bus with multiple presidential candidates. Benoist serves as a producer on the series, which is also executive produced by showrunner Rina Mimoun, Greg Berlanti, and Sarah Schechter. Production companies: Berlanti Productions, Warner Bros. Television.
