Salman Rushdie Documentary Set Based on His Memoir ‘Knife,’ With Alex Gibney Directing (EXCLUSIVE)
A documentary based on Salman Rushdie's memoir 'Knife' has been set with Alex Gibney directing.
The book is an account of the author’s life and career, and also depicts the 2022 assassination attempt against the Indian-born, British-American novelist and the long recovery that followed. “We have long admired his brilliant work, from “Taxi to the Dark Side” and “Going Clear” to his recent portrait of Paul Simon. “It’s a delight and an honor to make this film about Salman Rushdie, an extraordinary novelist, a funny, poignant and resilient man, and one of the world’s most courageous defenders of freedom of speech,” says Gibney.
