What happens in The Madness Trailer?
The Madness trailer sees Domingo play a character named Muncie Daniels, a political television pundit who accidentally witnesses the murder of a white supremacist. With Daniels being the only suspect the police are investigating in the case, he quickly realizes he’s being framed for murder and then goes on a quest to prove his innocence.
“Muncie Daniels is a political consultant-turned-TV pundit who may have lost his way in life,” the synopsis reads. “While on a work sabbatical in the Poconos to write the great American novel, Muncie finds himself the only witness to the murder of a well-known white supremacist, and now he’s being framed for the crime. Muncie is forced to go on the run in a desperate fight to clear his name and unravel a global conspiracy before time runs out. Along the way he’ll reconnect with his family, find unlikely allies, and fight against disinformation in a post-truth age.”
Along with Domingo, the cast of The Madness includes Marsha Stephanie Blake, Gabrielle Graham, John Ortiz, Tamsin Topolski, Thaddeus J.Mixson, Deon Cole, Alison Wright, Bradley Whitford, Stephen McKinley Henderson, Ennis Esmer, and Hamish Allan-Headley.
