==Media portrayals== [[Rudy De Luca]] portrayed Getty in the 1991 [[Mel Brooks]] film ''[[Life Stinks]]'', in which Brooks plays a real estate tycoon who takes a bet that he can't live in the streets as a derelict for a month. Several times in the film he runs into a homeless man who claims to be Getty in a similar situation, but neither believes the other. It is never confirmed whether this character was supposed to actually be Getty or just a homeless person with a personality disorder, but he is credited as "J. Paul Getty". [[Christopher Plummer]] portrayed Getty in the 2017 film ''[[All the Money in the World]],'' which dramatizes his grandson's kidnapping. Getty was originally portrayed by [[Kevin Spacey]], but after sexual misconduct allegations surfaced against Spacey before the film premiered, Plummer refilmed Spacey's scenes. For his performance, Plummer received an [[Academy Awards|Academy Award]] nomination for [[Academy Award for Best Supporting Actor|Best Supporting Actor]]. The kidnapping is dramatized in the first season of the American anthology drama series ''[[Trust (U.S. TV series)|Trust]]'', in which [[Donald Sutherland]] portrays Getty.<ref>{{cite news|last1=Petski|first1=Denise|title=FX Sets 'Atlanta' & 'The Americans' Return Dates, 'Trust' Premiere β TCA|url=https://deadline.com/2018/01/fx-atlanta-the-americans-trust-premiere-dates-1202236211/|publisher=[[Deadline Hollywood]]|access-date=January 5, 2018|date=January 5, 2018|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20180106065129/http://deadline.com/2018/01/fx-atlanta-the-americans-trust-premiere-dates-1202236211/|archive-date=January 6, 2018}}</ref>
