Excerpts:

A biopic on Elon Musk is in the works at New York-based studio A24 with “Black Swan”-filmmaker Darren Aronofsky as the director, according to a source familiar with the matter.

A24 secured the rights to Walter Isaacson’s biography on the world’s richest person, according to the source, who added the Musk biopic will be produced by Aronofsky’s production company, Protozoa Pictures.

“Glad Darren is doing it. He is one of the best,” Musk said in an X post on Friday.

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.

Remember when biopics came at the end of someone’s life?

Aronofsky seems fitting. This should be as bleak as Requiem for a Dream.
