Join four wildly different female journalists as they hit the campaign trail to cover a political election in this new drama series for HBO Max. Starring Melissa Benoist of "Supergirl" fame, Carla Gugino ("The Fall of the House of Usher"), Natasha Behnam ("Mayans M.C."), and Christina Elmore ("Insecure"), "The Girls on the Bus" delves into the competitive world of politics, journalism, and ambition. Check out the newly released trailer for the upcoming series.

Created and executive produced by former political journalist Amy Chozick and producer-writer Julie Plec ("The Vampire Diaries"), "The Girls on the Bus" is adapted from Chozick's 2018 memoir "Chasing Hillary," which recounted her experiences covering Clinton's two presidential campaigns.

In addition, the ensemble cast of the series also includes Brandon Scott, Griffin Dunne, Mark Consuelos, and Scott Foley.

Produced by Berlanti Productions in collaboration with Warner Bros. Television, "The Girls on the Bus" is set to premiere its first two episodes on Thursday, March 14th, exclusively on (HBO) MAX, with new episodes set to be released weekly thereafter.

synopsis:
THE GIRLS ON THE BUS invites viewers to hit the campaign trail alongside four female journalists, each of them different in their reporting styles and personalities. The story centers on Sadie McCarthy (Melissa Benoist), a journalist who romanticizes a bygone era of campaign reporting and scraps her whole life for a shot at covering a presidential candidate for a paper of record. Sadie joins the bus and eventually bonds with three female competitors, Grace (Carla Gugino), Lola (Natasha Behnam), and Kimberlyn (Christina Elmore). Despite their differences, the women become a found family with a front-row seat to the greatest soap opera in town - the battle for the White House.
