The First Lady: Viola Davis On Why She Was Terrified To Play Michelle Obama
Viola Davis is revealing why she was terrified to play Michelle Obama in the upcoming anthology series, The First Lady. Created by Aaron Cooley, the show will serve as an observation of the White House throughout various points in history and three of its first ladies, responsible for some of the country's most pivotal and influential decisions that were oftentimes hidden from view. Prior to the series' April 17 premiere date, official first-look photos of Davis as Michelle Obama displayed the actor's transformation, as well as those from the majority of its cast. In addition to Davis, the show will star Michelle Pfeiffer as Betty Ford and Gillian Anderson as Eleanor Roosevelt, and will feature O.T. Fagbenle, Aaron Eckhart, Kiefer Sutherland, and Dakota Fanning in other roles.
