Zero Day had everyone talking when it was first announced, with many noting that Robert De Niro doesn't do many TV shows. I was intrigued to see him playing a troubled former President, as Netflix has a record for being pretty good with political thrillers.

The iconic film actor plays a former U.S. president put in an impossible position in the Netflix political thriller.

As former U.S. president turned special commission investigator George Mullen ( Robert De Niro) delivers a climactic closing speech in the final scene of Netflix's new political thriller Zero Day, it's this admission that gets to the heart of the show's message about the importance of truth in today's world.
