  • Resumen

  • When former California Governor James "Jimmy" Bennett stars in a hit streaming drama about seizing political power, he never expects fiction to bleed into reality.

    "Acting President" follows Bennett as his former Chief of Staff approaches him with a shocking proposal—to implement a real-world version of his television show's controversial storyline. As the lines between entertainment and political maneuvering blur, Bennett finds himself caught in a dangerous game with the highest possible stakes.

    When unexpected events in Washington coincide with the airing of the show's pivotal episode, mass confusion ensues as the public assumes it's brilliant viral marketing. Eight episodes of political intrigue, media manipulation, and one man's impossible choice between personal ambition and democratic principles.

    As Bennett grapples with the Secret Service agent's questions, news of the Pope's death and President Stillman's trip to Rome dominate the headlines, overshadowing the plummeting stock market. After meeting with Harding's mysterious associates, Bennett finds himself drawn deeper into their conspiracy despite his misgivings. When Pantheon Plus organizes a special screening of "The Insurgent" in Times Square, what should be a simple promotional event transforms into something more politically charged as attendees arrive with "Course Correction" signs and anti-Stillman messaging. Bennett's unease grows as the network distributes branded t-shirts and fans blur the line between fictional entertainment and real-world politics. Meanwhile, Garrett Fisher's podcast dissects the latest episode of the streaming drama, noting eerie parallels to current events. As "Course Correction" rallies begin forming organically across the country, Bennett receives an ominous text from Harding about military convoys near Washington D.C., suggesting that what began as television fiction might be evolving into dangerous reality.

    Bennett dismisses Harding's dangerous suggestion, yet can't shake the unsettling way it echoes his streaming show's plot. When Pantheon Plus launches a provocative marketing campaign with billboards declaring "AMERICA NEEDS A COURSE CORRECTION," the line between Bennett's fictional character and real-life persona grows dangerously thin. As "The Insurgent" dominates social media and political discussion, Harding persists, inviting Bennett to a secretive meeting with mysterious associates.

    Meanwhile, Garrett Fisher's "Insurgent Theory" podcast dissects the viral phenomenon, noting disturbing parallels to real politics. Just as Bennett struggles to maintain control of his public image, a Secret Service agent appears at his door with warnings about extremists who believe his show contains coded messages—leaving him caught between government suspicion and a conspiracy he never agreed to join.
