Hollywood is increasingly portraying Silicon Valley leaders as creepy villains rather than flawed innovators. This shift reflects negative industry headlines infiltrating pop culture. This fall, four films will spotlight powerful and controversial figures, including Elon Musk, Mark Zuckerberg, Sam Altman, and Elizabeth Holmes. These productions span various genres, from thrillers to documentaries, such as Aaron Sorkin's The Social Reckoning. This trend highlights how the tech billionaire has become Hollywood's most prominent current antagonist.
