30 Years of "Hackers" in Hollywood

The 1995 film Hackers celebrates its 30th anniversary in 2025. To mark the occasion, host Max Havey sat down for a chat with guests Neil Thacker, Netskope's Global Privacy and Data Protection Officer, and Abby Olcese, Film Editor at The Pitch, to talk about the film and their relationship to it over the intervening three decades. Together they discuss why Hackers remains a cult classic, how Hollywood's depiction of cybercrime, cybersecurity, and cyberspace has evolved, and what modern depictions tell us about the world we live in.
