According to Deadline, veteran actor Robert Patrick has joined the cast of Steven Soderbergh’s Netflix drama The Laundromat. The cast also includes Gary Oldman, Meryl Streep, Antonio Banderas, David Schwimmer and Will Forte. The film is based on Pulitzer Prize-winning journalist Jake Bernstein‘s nonfiction book, “Secrecy World: Inside the Panama Papers Investigation of Illicit Money Networks and the Global Elite.” The book looks at the story surrounding the Panama Papers, which was the largest data leak in corporate and government history. Bernstein was part of the international team of journalists who are members of the International Consortium of Investigative Journalists that broke the story of the Panama Papers in April of 2016. More than 11 million records were leaked as a part of the papers sourced from Panamanian law firm Mossack Fonseca.
