Cable channel HBO said on Thursday it is planning a dramatized TV miniseries about the extraordinary 2016 U.S. presidential, one of the first of several such projects being discussed in Hollywood. No casting, title or broadcast date was announced for the HBO project, which comes from the same team that produced the award-winning Game Change film about the 2008 election that starred Julianne Moore as then Republican vice-presidential contender Sarah Palin.

The 2016 election campaign that saw Republican Donald Trump triumph over Democrat Hillary Clinton last November was one of the most dramatic in living memory. It is also the subject of a TV miniseries treatment being developed by Zero Dark Thirty movie screenwriter Mark Boal, the Hollywood Reporter said in February.

A third miniseries project, looking at the behind-the-scenes drama of Trumps campaign, is also making the rounds in Hollywood, entertainment website Deadline reported last month.

The announcement by HBO, a unit of Time Warner, appeared to mark the first of the various ideas to win a commitment from a major broadcaster. HBO said its series would be based on an upcoming book by political journalists Mark Halperin and John Heilemann about the campaign. Jay Roach, who directed Emmy-winner Game Change will return to direct, and Tom Hanks is one of the executive producers.

Len Amato, president of HBO Films, said in a statement that the project promises to vividly capture the most unique and impactful event in modern American politics.

Former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton urged a crowd of female leaders Wednesday to keep up the "resistance" in her second set of public remarks given on International Women's Day.

Appearing at the 16th annual Vital Voices Global Leadership Awards, an event dedicated to honoring and developing women in leadership roles, the 2016 Democratic nominee said she felt encouraged by the groundswell of grassroots mobilization she's seen since losing her bid to become the United States' first female president.

''As we all stop to look fear in the face, the result has not only been action, but passion," she told a crowd of female leaders at the Washington D.C., event.

Clinton, who said being among the group of female role models and innovators that she helped found felt "like coming home," urged those in attendance to continue to take steps toward furthering gender equality.

Never lose your optimism, your persistence and your resistance," she said. "We can build the future we envisioned when we started on this journey with Vital Voices two decades ago, for women, for girls around the world and for us here at home.

The former first lady also said that the current political climate beckoned for more female voices. ''Our voices have always been vital but they've never been more vital than they are now," she added.

Clinton's remarks echoed her statements during a luncheon earlier Wednesday, when she said she hoped to see a surge in political representation for women in the coming years.

Let us hope there is a wave of young women running for office in America, Clinton said as she accepted an award from the Girls Inc non-profit in New York. And lets be sure we support them in every way we can. Lets help them shatter stereotypes and lift each other up.

Hillary Clinton retweeted, then deleted, a photo shared by the Twitter account for "Full Frontal with Samantha Bee," a news satire show on TBS, making fun of the lack of women in a picture of President Trump posing in the Oval Office with health insurance CEOs.

Several journalists screen-captured Clinton's retweet Wednesday afternoon, before it was quickly deleted. The original tweet from "Full Frontal," which is likely a nod to International Women's Day, has the caption: "The Trump WH is so feminist, EVERY day is Day Without a Woman."

"Full Frontal," a late-night talk and comedy show that is hosted by comedian Samantha Bee, who consistently dedicates jokes to lampooning Trump.
