Star Trek’s Bruce Greenwood signs on to Dan Rather scandal movie
According to The Hollywood Reporter, Bruce Greenwood will play CBS News president Andrew Heyward in Truth, the movie about newsman Dan Rather’s reputation getting trashed after he reported on George W. Bush getting special treatment during the Vietnam War so he could avoid actually seeing any combat. Rather got his information from some documents that were later believed to be forgeries, and his producer Mary Mapes was then fired for backing him up. As previously reported, Robert Redford and Cate Blanchett will play Rather and Mapes, and as referenced earlier in this article, Greenwood will play the guy who fired Mapes.
