Michael Douglas on “Franklin,” and playing a founding father

But as an Oscar-winning producer and performer, Michael has earned his own legendary status. He now stars as the revolutionary figure Benjamin Franklin in the Apple TV+ series “Franklin.” He tells correspondent Mo Rocca that the show’s story, about the founding father’s efforts to save a burgeoning democracy, is timely given today’s dangerous political climate.
