Jack O’Connell Builds a Bad Newspaper in Danny Boyle’s ‘Ink’ Trailer #2

“Let’s make something dangerous… and something fun!” Studiocanal and Netflix have unveiled their full official trailer for the movie Ink, Danny Boyle’s new film about the creation of the UK tabloid The Sun. This originally premiered at the 2026 Venice Film Festival in Italy as the Opening Night film (here’s my review) – it’s basically Trainspotting but about newspapers in the 70s. Set in 1969, the rising media tycoon Rupert Murdoch acquires the daily newspaper The Sun in the UK, and his partnership with editor Larry Lamb turns the paper into Britain’s most influential tabloid. This stars Jack O’Connell as Larry Lamb, Guy Pearce as Rupert Murdoch, and Claire Foy as Jules Davies working at The Sun, joined by Blake Harrison, Patrick Kennedy, Angus Imrie, and Brian Gleeson. Boyle explains more: “these two men created a new tabloid that, against all the odds, became the biggest-selling newspaper in the world. Cheeky, irreverent, daring: the ‘super soaraway’ Sun challenged the establishment and remade our world for the modern era.” This is an electric, exciting trailer capturing the totally wild & outrageous energy of The Sun and this movie about how it became a successful tabloid. I hate that Boyle used AI making this movie, but I still recommend it anyway. // Continue Reading ›
