Netflix releases Danny Boyle’s tabloid-empires drama “Ink” in the U.S. on a staggered schedule. The film opens in select theaters on December 11 before arriving on Netflix on January 8 in the U.S. and Latin America, according to reports.
“Ink” is based on James Graham’s 2017 Tony-winning play of the same name. The screenplay is also written by Graham, and the production centers on the early years of Rupert Murdoch’s tabloid business. Variety and ComingSoon both frame the release dates as part of a broader awards-season strategy for the limited theatrical run. Variety also highlights an early look at Guy Pearce portraying Murdoch, while ComingSoon focuses primarily on confirming the dual theatrical and streaming timing. The outlets otherwise align on the core details: the film’s subject matter, its play-to-screen origin, and the dates for both distribution windows.
