Molly’s Game is a fact‑based drama presented as a film‑type programme. It centres on the real‑life story of Molly Bloom, a former competitive skier who became the organiser of an ultra‑exclusive, high‑stakes poker circuit. The narrative is rooted in actual events, positioning the work as a dramatised account rather than pure fiction. The core of the plot follows Bloom as she builds and runs what has been described as the world’s most exclusive poker game, attracting participants willing to wager large sums. Her operation eventually draws the attention of federal authorities, and she finds herself pursued by the FBI. The storyline therefore moves from the creation of the secretive gambling environment to the legal repercussions that follow. The film features performances by Jessica Chastain and Idris Elba. Both actors are highlighted as part of the principal cast, bringing the real‑world characters to life on screen. Their involvement is noted alongside the factual premise, rounding out the description of the programme without introducing additional details beyond what is provided.
