A24 and director Darren Aronofsky are working on a biopic about tech mogul Elon Musk.

According to Variety, the biopic will be based on Walter Isaacson’s 2015 authorized biography, Elon Musk. A24 reportedly won a “heated” bidding war for the book’s rights, and the film will mark a new project from Aronofsky following his Oscar-nominated film The Whale with Brendan Fraser. Isaacson’s 2011 biography of Steve Jobs also served as the basis for Danny Boyle’s 2015 biopic, which starred Michael Fassbender as the late Apple founder.

Musk himself confirmed the creation of the biopic on X, writing, “Glad Darren is doing it. He is one of the best.”

Stay tuned for more info on the upcoming film.

Elsewhere in entertainment, The Marvels opening weekend marked the lowest debut for any MCU film.
