There have been many documentaries about the assassination and Mercader over the years. A Spanish documentary about Mercader's life, called "Asaltar los cielos" ("Storm the skies"), was released in 1996 while a Spanish-language documentary, "El Asesinato de Trotsky", was co-produced in 2006 by The History Channel and Anima Films as a joint US/Argentine production, and directed by Argentinian director Matías Gueilburt. There have been also many films, such as the 1972 Joseph Losey-directed "The Assassination of Trotsky", featuring Alain Delon as Frank Jacson/Mercader and Richard Burton as Trotsky, and the 2016 film "The Chosen," directed by Antonio Chavarrías and filmed in Mexico, which is an account of Trotsky's murder, featuring Alfonso Herrera as Mercader. The Trotsky assassination is depicted in the film "Frida" (2002), with Mercader portrayed by Antonio Zavala Kugler (uncredited) and Trotsky by Geoffrey Rush.
