We Have a Trailer for Musk Documentary Elon Called a "Hit Piece"
The trailer condenses nearly four hours of film and cites claims of tens of thousands of jobs and lives lost during Musk’s Washington stint.
- Bleecker Street Media released the official trailer today for 'Musk,' an Oscar-winning documentary by director Alex Gibney, premiering in limited release October 9 in New York and Los Angeles.
- Production began in 2023, but Gibney extended the runtime significantly after Musk helped Trump win the 2024 election and took control of federal agencies, creating new material for the nearly four-hour film.
- The film examines Musk's four-month tenure leading DOGE, alleging tens of thousands of job losses as USAID programs were cut, while investigating accusations he used Starlink satellites to influence the 2024 election.
- Musk responded with hostility, tweeting on September 9 that 'Dogshit is worth more respect than Gibney,' while his attorney Alex Spiro reportedly threatened defamation litigation, though no lawsuit has been filed.
- The three-hour-and-45-minute documentary holds a 100 percent Rotten Tomatoes rating following Venice and Toronto festival screenings, positioning it as a test of public appetite for documentaries about billionaire power in American politics.
