Showtime announced Monday it will air a series of “revealing” interviews with Russian President Vladimir Putin conducted by movie director Oliver Stone.
The series, titled “The Putin Interviews,” will air over four nights beginning June 12 at 9 p.m. ET, a release said.
“During these wide-ranging interviews, Putin confronts the controversies engulfing the increasingly fragile relations between the U.S. and Russia today, including his views on President Donald Trump and allegations of Russian meddling in the 2016 U.S. presidential election, NATO, and fostering turmoil in Syria, Ukraine and elsewhere,” the channel said.
Showtime said Stone interviewed Putin more than a dozen times in two years. Their most recent encounter was in February.
