Tampa entrepreneurs back film on Musk’s Tesla years
Two Tampa entrepreneurs are serving as executive producers of ELON, a feature film focused on the years when Tesla struggled to survive and Elon Musk was still trying to convince investors, employees and customers that the electric-vehicle company had a future.
Nick Friedman, co-founder of College HUNKS Hauling Junk, and Punit Shah, Liberty Group and a co-owner of the Miami Marlins, have joined the film’s production team and appear in the cast. Producers released the first trailer this week ahead of a planned theatrical release this fall.
