If reports are to be believed, actors and filmmakers George Clooney and Grant Heslov, along with screenwriter-producer Matt Charman, are working on a series that will explore the famous Watergate scandal that had former US President Richard Nixon out of office.

According to reports, Charman, who has co-written the screenplay for Steven Spielberg's Bridge of Spies, will write the eight-part limited series. Sources revealed that the show will explore the stories of certain key figures in the scandal.

Sources told variety.com that Clooney Clooney may also direct some part of the series that will be on Netflix.

The Watergate scandal made headlines in June 1972, after five men were arrested for breaking into the headquarters of the Democratic National Committee at the Watergate complex in Washington D.C. 

Following this event, subsequent investigations revealed a cover-up which was initiated by high-ranking officials of the White House, which eventually forced President Nixon's resignation in 1974.
