HBO has dropped its planned miniseries about Trump’s 2016 presidential win amid sexual harassment claims against Game Change author Mark Halperin.
The project had been announced in March and was to be based on the third book in the nonfiction series co-authored by Halperin and John Heilemann. HBO’s move comes in the wake of five women accusing Halperin of sexual misconduct.
“HBO is no longer proceeding with the project tied to the untitled book co-authored by Mark Halperin and John Heilemann on the 2016 Presidential election,” the network said. “HBO has no tolerance for sexual harassment within the company or its productions.”
