In Popular Culture
Dutch musician Legowelt (a stage name for Danny Wolfers) wrote and produced the album The Rise and Fall of Manuel Noriega in 2008. In the event a biopic film would be made about Noriega's life, this was intended to be the soundtrack. Legowelt never made any overt statements about Noriega himself, but his view of dictatorships is negative.
A highly fictionalized story of the capture of Manuel Noriega is portrayed in a level of the 2012 video game Call of Duty: Black Ops II.
