Using Kate Andersen Brower’s book The Residence: Inside the Private World of the White House as a jumping-off point, the eight-episode series is described as “a screwball whodunnit set in the upstairs, downstairs, and back stairs of the White House, among the eclectic staff of the world’s most famous mansion.” Its premise: 132 rooms. 157 suspects. One dead body. One wildly eccentric detective (Uzo Aduba). One disastrous State Dinner.
In addition to Aduba, Andre Braugher, Edwina Findley, Molly Griggs, Jason Lee, Ken Marino, Al Mitchell, Dan Perrault, Bronson Pinchot, Susan Kelechi Watson, Isiah Whitlock Jr., Mary Wiseman and Randall Park were previously announced to have joined the cast.
Shonda Rhimes and Betsy Beers serve as executive producers of the drama alongside showrunner Paul William Davies.
