Bitz Films’ Elon — The First Vertical Biopic — Is Now Streaming on BitzFilms.com With More Streaming Platforms Coming Soon
San Francisco, CA (October 24, 2025) –
Bitz Films, the San Francisco–based startup elevating vertical filmmaking, today announced that Elon, its provocative and genre-bending vertical biopic, is now officially streaming on BitzFilms.com.
The project marks the first time a biopic of this scale has been produced and released entirely in vertical format. Shot for a fraction of Hollywood’s traditional $30M biopic budget, Elon blends intimate drama with speculative sci-fi to explore Elon Musk’s journey — from the near-collapse of SpaceX to his high-stakes Twitter acquisition and a speculative leap to Mars.
In addition to streaming on BitzFilms.com, Elon will also be available soon through leading micro drama and streaming platforms.
“Making Elon available on BitzFilms.com and soon other leading third party platforms marks an exciting milestone,” said Lei Zhang, co-founder of Bitz Films. “We set out to prove that vertical cinema could deliver Hollywood-level storytelling with mobile-native creativity and now, audiences around the world can experience it firsthand.”
Cast & Credits
Starring Kaleb Brand as Elon Musk and Jamie Hughes as Justine Musk, the 52-part microdrama is written by Matthew Syrett (Freeheld, Merpeople) and directed by Kathryn Wyatt, with production by Andrew Pearce and Karbis Sarafyan. Executive Producer Serena Jiang helped guide the vertical-first vision from development through final cut.
Why It Matters
With Elon, Bitz Films becomes one of the first U.S. companies to break into the vertical storytelling market that has already reached multibillion-dollar scale overseas. By combining Hollywood-style production values with vertical-native storytelling, Bitz Films is positioning itself as a leader in this rapidly growing category.
