Since Obama has some expert knowledge in matters of the state, Esmail reached out to him for some consultation, ensuring that the story was as real as possible. “I am writing what I think is fiction, for the most part, I’m trying to keep it as true to life as possible, but I’m exaggerating and dramatizing,” said Esmail to Vanity Fair.
“And to hear an ex-president say you’re off by a few details…I thought I was off by a lot! The fact that he said that scared the fuck out of me.”Aside from providing notes on the film, Obama is also one of its producers, signing on to the project last year. Esmail praised his notes and called him a movie lover, and someone who wasn’t only interested in the political elements of the story. “He had a lot [of] notes about the characters and the empathy we would have for them,” Esmail said.
