Lead actor in Netflix series 'The Altruists' once wrote to SBF in prison and received a reply

TechFlow, Oct. 29 — According to Cointelegraph, Irish actor Anthony Boyle, who plays former FTX CEO Sam Bankman-Fried (SBF) in the Netflix series 'The Altruists,' contacted SBF in prison by email while preparing for the role, and SBF answered most of his questions. Boyle said he had promised not to reveal the content of their exchanges. The series is expected to premiere in about three weeks, and the trailer shows the storyline focuses on the relationship between SBF and former Alameda Research head Caroline Ellison. SBF was previously sentenced to 25 years in prison on seven felony counts, and Ellison served more than a year under a plea agreement before being released in January this year.

Earlier, former FTX COO Constance Wang said the portrayal of characters in the series made her 'uncomfortable,' adding that the real-life SBF was more 'unsociable' than in the series.
