Two TV documentaries based on Hornfischer's book have been produced.

The first of them, produced by Lou Reda Productions and premiering on The History Channel on November 11, 2005, featured interviews with Hornfischer and veterans of the battle.

It was followed by an episode of Dogfights on the History Channel, titled "The Death of the Japanese Navy", premiering on December 29, 2006, which featured a sophisticated CGI rendition of the sea battle.

Guess I was thinking a full feature film, like the movie “Greyhound”, but truthful.
