‘The Morning Show’ Boss on How Election Could Impact Season 4 Storyline and Why the Series Stays Relevant: ‘We Haven’t Toppled Patriarchy — Yet’


'Morning Show' showrunner Charlotte Stoudt previews Season 4 ahead of receiving the Variety Showrunner Award at the SCAD TVfest.

The latest season of “The Morning Show,” which aired last fall, continued to dial up the drama as Bradley (Reese Witherspoon) discovered that her brother was involved in the Jan. 6 insurrection — and covered it up, putting her life and career in jeopardy. Alex (Jennifer Aniston) started a relationship with billionaire Paul Marks (Jon Hamm), who was in line to acquire the UBA network in a deal orchestrated by CEO Cory Ellison (Billy Crudup). Stoudt is no stranger to adapting real-life drama, having learned to do so while working on Showtime’s “Homeland,” which also reflected the war on terror, as well as FX’s “Fosse/Verdon,” which depicted the personal and professional dynamic between choreographer Bob Fosse and dancer Gwen Verdon.
