Michael Sheen, Jeremy Renner filming 'Kill the Messenger'

'Kill the Messenger '(2014)
Sheen portrays "Richard L. Franks," a government official entangled in the story of journalist "Gary Webb" (Jeremy Renner). Sheen's performance is sharp and nuanced, perfectly capturing the tension and complexity of the film's real-life subject matter. His role contributes to the growing sense of conspiracy and corruption as Webb uncovers the truth behind the CIA’s involvement in the crack cocaine epidemic.
