Danny Boyle’s new film, “Ink,” which depicts Rupert Murdoch and Larry Lamb, is scheduled to open the Venice International Film Festival. Multiple outlets report that the movie will be Boyle’s first feature to play at Venice. The film is presented as Boyle’s return to feature-length directing outside of a franchise context, following his most recent prior film credit in 2019, “Yesterday.” The Venice festival is set to begin on September 2, and the “Ink” premiere is positioned as the opening event of the festival’s program. Further festival details are expected to follow: sources say the complete slate of films competing for the Golden Lion is expected to be announced next week, after the festival opening. Coverage across outlets is consistent on the core facts: the identity of the film, its subject matter involving Murdoch and Lamb, and its role as the opening film for Venice. The reporting does not add conflicting information about the premise or dates, focusing instead on Boyle’s return to Venice and the festival’s upcoming announcements.
