LOS ANGELES: The cast of television’s award-winning political drama “The West Wing” are getting back together for a special to promote voting in November’s US elections.
Martin Sheen - a political activist in real life who played the liberal-leaning US President Jed Bartlet on the NBC show - will reunite with his fictional White House staffers, portrayed by Bradley Whitford, Allison Janney, Rob Lowe, Dule Hill, Janel Maloney and Richard Schiff, HBO Max said on Tuesday.
The one-off special will include new material by creator Aaron Sorkin and will air on streaming platform HBO Max ahead of the Nov. 3 elections to raise awareness of the nonprofit “When We All Vote” group co-chaired by former first lady Michelle Obama.
“This was a way to use us getting back together to make a statement about getting people out to vote,” Whitford told NBC’s “Today” show as he announced the reunion.
