The story of John P. O'Neill was one that Jeff Daniels admittedly did not know. Similar to most of the audience who tuned into Hulu's The Looming Tower on Wednesday, the FBI legend who died in 9/11 was a new character to Daniels when he took the part. "His partner said he 'gulped' life, so I gulped life," Daniels tells The Hollywood Reporter of how he approached portraying the larger-than-life tragic figure .O'Neill's pivotal role in the pursuit of Osama bin Laden has been meticulously told in the 2006 Pulitzer Prize-winning book of the same name by Lawrence Wright, who is an exec producer on the limited series . The 10-episode series will trace O'Neill and Soufan's hunt for bin Laden on the FBI side, beginning in 1998 and ending with the attacks on Sept. 11, 2001.
