Anatomy of a Scandal premieres on Netflix on April 15, 2022. The political thriller was the much-awaited adaptation of Sarah Vaughan&#8217;s novel of the same name. Coming from the creators of Big Little Lies, Nine Perfect Strangers, and The Undoing, the project has a roster of talent. Ruper Friend, who plays the lead, James Whitehouse MP assures viewers that the show is a total &#8220;binge-fest&#8221; in an interview.

Rupert said, &#8220;So you can expect a very high production value, great writing, great characters but also that classic David E. Kelley thing of what seems to be a very glossy flawless world of beautiful people. 
And you lift the lid on that and of course, it&#8217;s filled with rot beneath. And that rot it brings the house crashing down.&#8221;
The <a href="https://www.netflix.com/title/81152788" target="_blank" rel="noopener">show</a> is about a minister of British Parliament who finds himself in a predicament after he&#8217;s accused of rape. With a target on his back, he has to find a way to win over his supporters and his wife. 
<h2>No bad blood off camera </h2>
<a href="https://netflixjunkie.com/tag/rupert-friend">Rupert Friend</a> may have faulted the women on camera but behind the scenes, it was all smiles. The environment on set was positive.
&#8220;I would just come to work every day just like a kid on Christmas. And I got to see terrific actresses at work every day. And we got to a laugh a hell of a lot along with the making of it,&#8221; he expressed.

<h2>He found James Whitehead on Anatomy of a Scandal fascinating and repelling </h2>
His character is that of a loathsome minister who develops a god complex. For the actor, playing such a character was fascinating. However, at the same time, he found James Whitehead repulsive.

&#8220;The idea of climbing inside the shoes of a man who I found fairly repellant was fascinating.&#8221;
However, he couldn&#8217;t resist the idea of working with SJ Clarkson. The actor shared how Clarkson is a &#8220;director, with whom I had such fascinating discussions about the nature of entitlement, intent, privilege, elitism, and although I don&#8217;t have any empathy or sympathy for that echelon of society,&#8221; he quipped.
Well, we are glad he chose to be a part of <a href="https://netflixjunkie.com/tag/anatomy-of-a-scandal">Anatomy of a Scandal</a>. What about you?
