Plot Summary

Musk is a 2026 documentary directed by Alex Gibney, written by Gibney with Michael J. Palmer, who also edited. The film sets out an account of Elon Musk across his companies and his move into right-wing politics, drawing on interviews with his first wife Justine Musk, Ashley St. Clair, journalist Kara Swisher, Tesla co-founder Martin Eberhard, reporter Zoë Schiffer and the computer scientist Geoffrey Hinton.
It runs as a cumulative argument rather than a biography, which is what the length is for. Jigsaw Productions, HBO Documentary Films, Double Agent, AC Independent and Closer Media produced, with Benjamin Bloodwell on cinematography, a score by Daniel Pemberton and a song, "Let Me Sell You a Dream", written and performed by David Byrne with Pemberton. The runtime is 225 minutes, or 235 with the intermission. It premiered out of competition at the 83rd Venice International Film Festival on 8 September 2026 and Bleecker Street opened it in the United States on 9 October, moved up from 16 October, with Universal handling international. Rated R for language and brief violent content.
Musk himself called it a hit piece. For viewers who want the full documentary record in one sitting.
