9/12 is described as dramatizing a “landmark case that reshaped the fight for accountability: a relentless legal war that stretched nearly a decade to secure almost $1 billion in compensation for first responders who fell gravely ill in the wake of 9/11.”
Jeremy is set to star as “class action lawyer Jason Smith, who risked everything to take on entrenched institutions, exposing the politics, greed, corruption and betrayal that compounded tragedy set against the emergency workers’ extraordinary unity and unflinching bravery as The World Trade Center was collapsing.”
In addition to starring, Jeremy will serve as an executive director. Tobias Lindhome serves as writer, director and executive producer.
“9/12 is about the best of us—our first responders whose official response time on 9/11 was five seconds. It is about a moment of unity and togetherness in this divided country, when, amidst the wreckage, we rebuilt and rose again from the rubble,” Jeremy shared in a statement. “But it is also about the ways our institutions failed to respond to those heroes—whom we pledged we would never forget—in their moment of greatest need. 9/12 is a story about justice, about the restitution of human dignity and about the real-life heroes of this country who we must never forget. Tobias Lindholm is one of the world’s greatest writer/directors and has the depth, restraint, integrity, clarity and power to honor this story.”
The six-episode limited series is slated to begin production in Summer 2026 for a 2027 premiere on Paramount+.
