First 'The Problem with Jon Stewart' Trailer Takes Aim at the Billionaire Space Race
We’ve got our first look at Jon Stewart‘s highly anticipated series on Apple TV+, The Problem with Jon Stewart, and it is as timely as we could have hoped. In a tweet Tuesday night, the former Daily Show host released a trailer for the series, mocking the billionaire space race mere hours after Amazon founder Jeff Bezos made headlines for his first suborbital flight with his aerospace company, Blue Origin.
The trailer casts Jason Alexander as Bezos, whose interest in rocketry seems to hinge largely on the spacecraft resembling his… equipment. Adam Pally features as Tesla and SpaceX founder Elon Musk, who is equally set on designing a rocket to resemble his own equipment. It’s an arms race, but, you know, not arms. The trailer also features a mop as Virgin founder Richard Branson, “a stray cat” as Facebook founder Mark Zuckerberg, and Tracy Morgan as “‘Diverse Friend’ who would never actually hang out with Jeff Bezos in real life.”
