Prepare for a biting commentary on the tech elite with Mountainhead, an upcoming dark comedy-thriller set to stream on Max starting May 31, 2025. Directed by Jesse Armstrong, the genius behind Succession, this film promises a satire sharp enough to cut through the glittering veneer of billionaire privilege.
The teaser introduces us to four tech moguls — played by Steve Carell, Jason Schwartzman, Cory Michael Smith, and Ramy Youssef — who gather at a luxurious mountain lodge. What starts as a carefree retreat soon turns tense as the group monitors the world's collapsing crises. But while global chaos ensues, the moguls remain blissfully detached, their attention fixated on personal indulgence and corporate malfeasance.
With a tagline like "Four friends. $371 billion net worth. Zero culpability.", Mountainhead skewers the apathetic, self-serving world of the ultra-wealthy. Through its sharp humor and suspense, it lays bare the moral vacuity of those who profit from society’s darkest corners.
Don’t miss it. Mountainhead is set to reveal the absurdity of billion-dollar privilege — and we can’t wait to see it unfold.
