Deadline reports that Coco star Alanna Ubach (Gloria Bell) has signed on to portray the role of Fox News host Jeanine Pirro in director Jay Roach’s upcoming Roger Ailes biopic Fair and Balanced.
Ailes was fired from Fox News within weeks of Carlson’s suit after several more women came forward with similar allegations of sexual misconduct.
This film will reunite Ubach with Roach after working together on the 2004 comedy Meet the Fockers.
Jeanine Pirro was one of the Fox News hosts who first came to Ailes’ defense after she had known him for three decades.
