Here’s a breaking news alert for Fox News viewers: Clockwork Orange star Malcolm McDowell will play News Corp Chairman Rupert Murdoch in a new biopic about the Roger Ailes scandal, Variety reported.
McDowell is joining an all-star cast that already includes Nicole Kidman as Gretchen Carlson, who sued Ailes for harassment in July 2016, and Charlize Theron as Megyn Kelly, who also came forward with accusations of abuse.
The other bold-face names in the cast of the currently-untitled movie include John Lithgow, Kate McKinnon and Margot Robbie.
The movie, produced by Annapurna, the studio behind Zero Dark Thirty, is directed by Jay Roach (Trumbo).
Ailes built Fox News into a media powerhouse, but was ultimately fired by Murdoch after Carlson’s lawsuit inspired several other women to come forward with their own allegations of sexual misconduct.
