Ink

Ink is a biographical drama now in post-production following a late 2025 shoot in London and Yorkshire. Director Danny Boyle helms the project, adapted by playwright James Graham from his own Tony-nominated stage work. The film stars Guy Pearce as Rupert Murdoch and Jack O'Connell as Sun editor Larry Lamb, with Claire Foy in a supporting role. StudioCanal fully finances the production alongside Media Res and House Productions, with producers including Tessa Ross and Michael Ellenberg. Set in 1969, the story follows Murdoch's transformation of The Sun into a tabloid powerhouse that would rival The Mirror and reshape British journalism. Principal photography took place across London, Saltaire, Hebden Bridge, and Halifax in West Yorkshire. The film is targeting a 2027 theatrical release in StudioCanal territories including the UK, France, Germany, Australia, and New Zealand, with U. S. distribution still being finalized.
