Set against the backdrop of the White House, this screwball whodunnit promises to take audiences on a wild ride through the halls of power, where 132 rooms, 157 suspects, and one dead body lead to a comedic unraveling of one very disastrous State Dinner.
Starring an incredible ensemble cast led by Sterling K. Brown, Uzo Aduba, Giancarlo Esposito, and Jason Lee, The Residence weaves together a quirky and fast-paced narrative involving an eclectic mix of characters working at the world’s most famous mansion. With a wildly eccentric detective at the helm, this mini-series explores the intrigue and chaos that ensues when a murder disrupts the otherwise rigid and formal corridors of the White House. From the upstairs to the backstairs, everyone becomes a suspect as the investigation unfolds with a combination of sharp wit and absurd comedy.
The stellar cast also includes Edwina Findley, Molly Griggs, Ken Marino, Randall Park, Mel Rodriguez, Susan Kelechi Watson, Isiah Whitlock Jr., and many more, ensuring that the story is as star-studded as it is suspenseful. The Residence taps into the impeccable comic timing and sharp character dynamics that its cast is known for, adding a layer of mystery to the White House’s inner workings.
Created, written, and showrun by Paul William Davies, The Residence is helmed by directors Jaffar Mahmood and Liza Johnson, bringing the story to life with the perfect mix of tension and humor. The series is inspired by the book The Residence by Kate Andersen Brower, offering a fictionalized yet gripping look at the politics, drama, and secrets that may lie behind the scenes in the most powerful residence in the world.
