Cloak-and-dagger spy scandal shoots polonium onto world stage
UPDATE - 23rd May 2007: Since this article was first published (21st March 2007), there have been further developments. British prosecutors have announced murder charges against an ex-KGB agent, who denies any involvement in the Litvinenko death.
UPDATE - 24th January 2016: Many news outlets again were giving much publicity to polonium and the Litvinenko case, after a British inquiry asserted that the assassination "probably" had been given approval at the highest level of Russian leadership.

Celebrity actor Johnny Depp is reportedly planning to produce a movie about the poisoning of Alexander Litvinenko, with himself in the starring role.

There’s already an excellent movie about it.
