background
In early March 2011, producer Roger Michell began looking for American actors to cast Roosevelt and Suckley. Bill Murray agreed to serve as President Roosevelt in late March.
Bill Murray plays Franklin D. Roosevelt, the 32nd President of the United States of America, who fought against the consequences of the Great Depression of 1929, polio and Adolf Hitler's urge to expand over the course of four terms and emerged victorious from all these conflicts. Laura Linney plays Margaret 'Daisy' Suckley, his fifth cousin and secret lover. The real Margaret Suckley was 99 years old. It was only when a box with letters and diaries was found under her bed after her death in 1991 that her very special relationship with the president was no longer a secret. Inspired by these diaries, director Roger Michell wanted to take a look behind the scenes of world history. The script was written by Richard Nelson, who met the real Margaret Suckley shortly before her death.
