Time to head back to the 1980s for a political scandal.

The first look at the political drama, "The Front Runner," was released on Thursday with "X-Men" and "Greatest Showman" actor Hugh Jackman debuting as politician Gary Hart. Directed by "Up in the Air" and "Juno" director Jason Reitman, the movie also stars Vera Farmiga, J.K. Simmons and Alfred Molina.


Here is the full synopsis:


The movie was filming in the Savannah area last October with eagle-eyed viewers of the trailer noticing a row of houses that Hart and Donna Rice exit being very similar to some you would see around Savannah's Historic District. A number of extra roles were required for the movie also as one called for area "cougars" for a scene in the movie.

The film will open in select cities on November 16 before going nationwide on November 21 in time for election season.
