Acclaimed documentarian plans documentary on murder of Brian Thompson and larger conversations it has inspired

Alex Gibney and Anonymous Content are planning a documentary project on the murder of the UnitedHealthcare CEO, Brian Thompson, and the larger public conversation about health insurance companies that the crime inspired.

The prolific film-maker’s company, Jigsaw Productions, will partner with Anonymous Content on the as yet untitled project about the dominant US news story of the month, since Thompson was fatally shot in midtown Manhattan on his way to an investor conference on 4 December.
