Meryl Streep and Tom Hanks will be collaborating for the first time.

The trailer for Steven Spielberg‘s next picture, The Post, has been released, courtesy of 20th Century Fox. The film reunites Spielberg with both Tom Hanks and Meryl Streep and is sure to be a dramatic spectacle of Hollywood royalty.

The Post is a historical drama based on The Washington Post‘s race against The New York Times to publish the contents of the Pentagon Papers, which detailed the true, horrifying extent of the Vietnam War. The Washington Post‘s first female publisher, Kay Graham (Streep), as well as the publication’s editor, Ben Bradlee (Hanks) put their careers and lives on the line to reveal the truth to the American public, going up against the US government to unearth the cover-up.
