I don’t understand the timing of this. The man is only 52 years old and, regardless of how you feel about him, has many open-ended chapters of his career. Why now?

Because they bought the rights to the book. Perhaps there will be another movie once Musk has passed.
Ever seen The Social Network?
This POS deserves a submarine ride not a biopic
Remember when biopics came at the end of someone's life?
Here's hoping.
Aronofsky seems fitting. This should be as bleak as Requiem for a Dream.
Who would you like to see a biopic of?
Well not Elon Musk for starters.
Darren Aronofsky is a curious choice.
I think it tracks with Aronofsky’s long line of characters with addictive personalities who can’t stop themselves from self-destructing.
Sounds like the least interesting thing in the whole world, ever
I guess someone has to direct it. Is just wish it would be a director I don’t respect, say, M. Night Shyamalan.
This is one biopic I will be happy to never see.
Ehhh I don’t know if we should be doing this. It just doesn’t seem the most responsible time to be making a movie about this man, even if it’s critical of him. Bad taste in mouth. He gets a lot of mileage out of his personal story/persona already, as a distraction from the labor abuse, antisemitism, transphobia, regulatory crimes and a whole bunch else. Seems this is just…playing into that pattern?
It should be ok if it just showed him really, as the dumbass he is, the richest man on the planet who can't buy a fuck let alone love or respect. I expect it will be a fluff piece though. Who would ever expect a turd like musk to appear in our lives? A turd full oh hot air so it's hard to flush
Hopefully this film leans in the Requiem For a Dream direction
We all must hear more about Elon!!!!!
