Other film projects include a science-fiction movie called "Satellite," which will be produced with T Street, a production company run by "Star Wars" director Rian Johnson and producer Ram Bergman.

The Elbas and now the Obamas. I am so in for black people getting into the Sci-Fi genre.

This is SO needed. Science is cool and our kids need to know this.

Am I the only one who thinks it's weird he's getting into movie production versus, you know, helping the country survive the post-Trump era?

IDK if it's just their extreme capitalist system but American politicians are truly experts at profiting from their ex-positions of power, without any shame.

Doesn't necessarily mean Rian himself is directing the movie, just that his production company is involved.

He did a hell of a lot of campaigning in 2018 and 20, he does do a lot of work through his foundation, and he's not in government anymore.

My copy of "The Dark Forest" has a recommendation from Obama on the back. Based on that I'm guessing he's genuinely into sci-fi.

Personally I'd rather they make movies or whatever it is this is instead of doing speeches for money, since that's a popular critique of politicians anyway.

First, that sounds awesome.

Second, if anyone in here is asking for more sci fi but isn't watching The Expanse, fuck you.
