Netflix has secured Monsanto, a compelling legal drama directed by John Lee Hancock, which was a highlight at Cannes. The film, starring Glen Powell, Anthony Mackie, and Laura Dern, recounts the true story of lawyer Brent Wisner played by Powell who challenges a giant corporation, Monsanto, in a groundbreaking lawsuit. Mackie portrays Dewayne Johnson, a school groundskeeper claiming Monsanto’s herbicide, Roundup, caused his cancer. Dern plays Monsanto’s chief toxicologist. The film addresses the contentious debate over glyphosate, following a landmark 2018 case where Monsanto was found liable for Johnson’s cancer, marking a significant victory for consumer safety.
