The movie was shot in the real New York Times building and is the first movie ever to use the real offices.
Ashley Judd, Gwyneth Paltrow, and Judith Godrèche, all famous actresses who were important sources for New York Times journalists Jodi Kantor and Megan Twohey's investigations into Harvey Weinstein, each play themselves in this film. Paltrow and Godrèche only appear as off-camera voices on the telephone, but Judd plays herself onscreen in a role that Variety's Elizabeth Wagmeister called "a key character who enables the reporters to break the bombshell story." Actress Rose McGowan, another pivotal source for the real-life story, also appears as an off-screen voice over the telephone, but McGowan ultimately chose not to play herself (McGowan's voice is portrayed by Kelly McQuail). Two other real-life Weinstein survivors and actresses- Sarah Ann Masse and Katherine Kendall also appear in the film. Masse plays Pulitzer Prize winning NY Time journalist Emily Steel who broke the O'Reilly story shortly before the Weinstein story broke and Kendall plays a former Miramax executive.
In the immediate weeks after the #MeToo scandal broke, former New York Times journalist Sharon Waxman alleged that The Times had been aware of Harvey Weinstein's sexual assaults of actresses since 2004, but the newspaper had declined to report the assaults following a personal visit to The Times' building by Harvey Weinstein. Sharon Waxman does not appear in the film.
Amid the #MeToo scandal, several women journalists at The New York Times publicly accused the newspaper's White House correspondent Glenn Thrush of sexual harassment. The Times investigated and publicly confirmed the allegations to be true. Despite all other major newspapers firing employees who committed sexual harassment, The Times chose to retain Thrush in a controversial decision which angered most women journalists at the newspaper. The women journalists argued the paper's decision was a betrayal of its professed values during #MeToo. Glenn Thrush does not appear as a character in the film.
According to actresses Rose McGowan and Asia Argento, Ronan Farrow's dogged persistence on investigating the allegations against Harvey Weinstein despite attempts by NBC executives and other powerful media figures to silence him was the linchpin which allowed their stories to be told. In several instances, the women assaulted by Weinstein were more comfortable sharing their stories with Farrow rather than Megan Twohey and Jodi Kantor due to the The New York Times' earlier suppression of its Weinstein investigation in 2004.
"Dean Baquet: We're all here, Harvey. Harvey Weinstein: Who have you talked to?"
"Megan Twohey: The only way these women are going to go on the record. Jodi Kantor: Is if they all jump together."
