\n Picture: Michael Woodford, just weeks after he exposed the scandal that cost him his job as Olympus president <\/em>
\n <\/sup>\n <\/p>\n

The movie, to be called Exposure<\/em><\/a>, has won support from Film4 and will be a \u2018first-person’ account of the battle to uncover a \u00a31.1 billion financial scandal<\/a>, exposed by former Olympus president-turned-whistleblower Michael Woodford in October 2011.<\/p>\n

NEWS UPDATE 3 JULY:<\/strong> Former bosses sentenced in Tokyo <\/a><\/p>\n

Woodford (pictured) said: \u2018Whilst I received many approaches, I’ve always wanted to make this film with The Ink Factory, as it was [producer and co-founder] Simon Cornwell who wrote to me as the drama of the Olympus scandal was unfolding, and encouraged me throughout those frightening and disturbing months of 2011 and 2012.’<\/p>\n

Cornwell said: \u2018We see this as a rich, character-driven drama about a man called to take extraordinary action.<\/p>\n

\u2018There are all the elements of a thriller, the constant shadow of the Yakuza<\/a> and the very real sense of physical threat.<\/p>\n

\u2018It is also a tale full of contemporary resonance and moral depth.<\/p>\n

\u2018We are very excited to be working with Michael Woodford in bringing his unbelievable experiences to the screen.’<\/p>\n

Details of the deal, which was announced today, have not been disclosed.<\/p>\n

A spokesman for The Ink Factory today told Amateur Photographer<\/em> that there is, as yet, no word on who will play Woodford in the movie, when shooting will start, or a release date. <\/p>\n

The movie is expected to take its title from Woodford’s book, Exposure<\/em>, published at the end of last year. <\/p>\n

The Ink Factory is based in London and Los Angeles. <\/p>\n
