Hollywood knows how to keep a secret.<\/strong><\/p>\n

For example, Disney shocked everyone by announcing a second “Moana” film<\/a> will drop later this year, a project virtually no one knew about until the Mouse House’s decree.<\/p>\n

And stars and directors alike kept quiet about producer Harvey Weinstein’s predilections until The New York Times’ investigation effectively ended his Hollywood career.<\/p>\n

Could director Billy Ray’s next anti-Trump project fall into that category?<\/p>\n

\"YouTube<\/a><\/p>\n

Ray is the celebrated writer\/director behind “Shattered Glass,” “Breach” and “The Comey Rule,<\/a>” the latter serving as fan fiction for Trump-deranged Democrats.<\/p>\n

The Showtime miniseries pretended the Russia collusion hoax actually happened. And, even when headlines began unraveling the gargantuan scam months before the project’s release<\/a>, Ray and Showtime shouldered on.<\/p>\n

No apologies. No regrets.<\/p>\n

In fact, Ray waged a public battle with Showtime<\/a> to make sure the 2020 miniseries debuted before Election Day that year. The pay channel initially announced it would air after the presidential votes had been tallied. Ray bullied the company into dropping it in September instead.<\/p>\n

He wanted the Fake News miniseries to influence the election. And, looking back at the results, maybe it did a tiny bit.<\/p>\n

Ray’s follow-up project is a kissing cousin to “The Comey Rule.” It’s been dubbed the “Untitled Capitol Assault Project” on IMDB.com, and news outlets broke news about it two years ago.<\/p>\n
