Deadline reports that Steven Soderbergh’s drama about the Panama Papers scandal, The Laundromat, has landed a deal with Netflix to distribute the film on their platform.
The film is based on Pulitzer Prize-winning journalist Jake Bernstein‘s nonfiction book, Secrecy World: Inside the Panama Papers Investigation of Illicit Money Networks and the Global Elite.
The book dives into the story surrounding the Panama Papers, which was the largest data leak in corporate and government history.
Lawrence Grey of Grey Matter Productions will himself produce alongside Anonymous Content’s Michael Sugar, Burns and Soderbergh.
