- Movie to be produced by Dreamworks
- Movie based on WikiLeaks to be called "The Fifth Estate"
- Julian Assange to be portrayed by Benedict Cumberbatch
After stating that the movie is a "massive propaganda attack on WikiLeaks and the character of my[it's] staff," Mr Assange told Oxford University students that the film would fuel the flame on the war against Iran through misrepresentation and the manufacture of events. I agree with this and think that film should consult government officials and Julian Assange himself to ensure the events portrayed in the film are correct. I also think legislations should be put in place for a film to get permission before a real life person is portrayed in pictures.
