Cerro Torre was featured in the 1991 film ''[[Scream of Stone]]'', directed by [[Werner Herzog]] and starring [[Vittorio Mezzogiorno]], [[Stefan Glowacz]], and [[Donald Sutherland]].<ref>[https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0102855/ IMDb article on ''Scream of Stone''], directed by [[Werner Herzog]] from an idea by [[Reinhold Messner]]</ref>

[[Jon Krakauer]] mentions it briefly in ''[[Into Thin Air]]'' as one of his earlier difficult ascents (1992): "I'd scaled a frightening, mile-high spike of vertical and overhanging granite called Cerro Torre; buffeted by hundred-knot winds, plastered with frangible atmospheric rime, it was once (though no longer) thought to be the world's hardest mountain".<ref name="Krakauer"/>

In March 2014, an adventure documentary was released following the "first ever free ascent" of Cerro Torre, featuring [[David Lama]]. ''Cerro Torre - A Snowball's Chance in Hell'' premiered at [[San Sebastián International Film Festival]] in September 2013.<ref>{{cite web |title=Cerro Torre: A snowball's chance in Hell |url=https://www.redbull.com/ca-en/films/cerro-torre |website=redbull.com |access-date=11 December 2024}}</ref>
