Too big to ignore, too complex to capture? The many faces of Rupert Murdoch

Rupert Murdoch's media legacy and family succession inspire multiple dramatizations, highlighting scandals like phone hacking and Fox News harassment, influencing public perception and legal scrutiny.

True to form, and cinematically fitter than many men a quarter of his age, 94-year old Rupert Murdoch will step onto the screen in two major new projects. The Hack, the dramatisation of the phone-hacking scandal which caused The News of the World to implode, will star Steve Pemberton. Ink, director Danny Boyle’s film adaptation of James Graham’s play, will star Guy Pearce.
