BBC Studios produced the series. This is Richard Gere's first TV role, apart from appearing in Kojak in 1976. Gere said, "It’s been almost 30 years since I worked in television. I'm so pleased to be working now with the BBC on this extraordinary eight-hour project with such talented people and which resonates so much to the time we live in". He seemed less enamoured of the project after filming, telling the Radio Times, "It was six months’ shooting, like doing four indie movies back to back but playing the same character. It’s too long. I don’t think I’ll do it again." Directed

BBC Studiosがシリーズを制作しました。 これは、1976年にコジャクに出演したことを除けば、リチャードギアの最初のテレビの役割です。ギアは、「テレビで働いてから30年近くになります。この素晴らしい8時間のプロジェクトでBBCと一緒に仕事ができてとてもうれしいです そのような才能のある人々と、私たちが住んでいる時間にとても共鳴します」。 彼は、ラジオタイムズに、「4枚のインディーズ映画を連続して行うが、同じキャラクターを演じるような撮影でした。長すぎます。私はやるつもりはありません。 また。」 監督
We are all capable of disloyalty,” Richard Gere warns in his first role for the small screen in decades, in BBC drama “MotherFatherSon.” Gere plays media overlord Max, who can be seen as a kingmaker and family man in the show’s first trailer.
Max is a newspaper and media baron who can influence elections and shape politics. He has succession plans in place, in the form of his son, Caden (Billy Howle), but events take an unexpected turn as a family crisis hits, with far-reaching implications.
“Are you here to pick a prime minister or deal with your son?” an adviser asks in another sequence. The trailer also shows a glimpse of Howle and Helen McCrory, who plays Max’s ex-wife.
It is a family drama but is set “in the context of really exploring our world in terms of politics and media and power in general,” Gere said while promoting the show at Mipcom in Cannes last October.
