'The Little Drummer Girl' star Alexander Skarsgard hopes the show will tell the story of "both sides"

Alexander Skarsgard says he would not have been part of the project if the series had a biased approach to the Arab-Israel conflict
PUBLISHED OCT 31, 2018

The cast of 'The Little Drummer Girl' has been pretty sensitive about the Arab-Israel conflict of the late 1970s, and star Alexander Skarsgard has declared that the show is not taking any biased stance on the war. Based on John Le Carre's 1983 titular novel, the show follows young, aspiring actress Charlie Ross (played by Florence Pugh) whose inclination towards left-liberalism makes her of interest for Mossad agents who are trying to bring down a Palestinian terrorist. Led by Marty Kurtz (played by Michael Shannon), agent Becker (played by Skarsgard) lures Charlie into a decisive attempt to put her up as a pawn in order to bring down the terrorist.
