Sam Bankman-Fried is coming to the big screen

Variety reports that Lena Dunham is working with Apple and production studio A24 to adapt Michael Lewis’ book “Going Infinite: The Rise and Fall of a New Tycoon,” which chronicles the life of Sam Bankman-Fried and the implosion of his company, FTX. She is set to write the script, the outlet said.

FTX, once one of the largest cryptocurrency exchanges in the world, stunningly collapsed in 2022 in a saga that enthralled the tech world and resulted in the criminal indictment of Bankman-Fried for money laundering and fraud. 

It was almost guaranteed he would get the Hollywood treatment, same as others, like Elizabeth Holmes, before him. Variety also reported that Amazon and another unnamed streamer are working on a limited series about Bankman-Fried and FTX, too.
