The film will revolve around young data consultant Christopher Wylie and the data mining operation Cambridge Analytica, which was founded by conservative billionaire Robert Mercer and eventual ex-White House Chief Strategist Steve Bannon.
The untitled Cambridge Analytica film will also be based on Carole Cadwalladr’s article in The Guardian.
Although Cambridge Analytica technically shut down, it still essentially exists under the name Emerdata with many of the same people involved.
The story has been in the news lately as Facebook itself is currently finalizing a settlement with the Federal Trade Commission to fork over $5 billion dollars for its role in the Cambridge Analytica scandal.
