- The Characters of Jeffrey Wright
A single deal reverberates from the halls of Washington, DC to the oil fields in Kazakhstan in this political thriller from Academy Award-winner Stephen Gaghan (Traffic). Against the backdrop of the Middle Eastern oil industry, Syriana weaves together multiple storylines—including Jeffrey Wright as an ambitious American lawyer in charge of a dubious merger and George Clooney as a CIA agent caught up in an assassination plot—into a rich tapestry of revenge, loss, ambition, and betrayal.
