Where have you gone, Rudy Giuliani?
A new documentary from MRC Non-Fiction and Rolling Stone poses precisely that question, delving into the former New York City mayor’s move from being a beloved 9/11 leader to consigliere and conspiracy-theorist-in-chief to one Donald J. Trump.
The film will be based on Seth Hettena’s 2020 article for Rolling Stone, “What Happened to America’s Mayor?” It’s being directed by Zach Heinzerling, an Oscar nominee for “Cutie & The Boxer,” and Gabrielle Schonder, a two-time Emmy winner whose credits include “The NRA: Under Fire.”
The film follows Giuliani’s downward trajectory, taking viewers from the universal adulation that greeted his response to the attacks of September 11th, to his move into the more fringe parts of the political spectrum. That includes his role trying to get dirt on Joe Biden and Hunter Biden, which led to the Ukraine scandal and Trump’s first impeachment,...

A new documentary about the public life of Rudy Giuliani is now in production, and it’s based on the 2020 Rolling Stone article “What Happened to America’s Mayor?” by Seth Hettena. The film will be directed by Academy Award-nominated “Cutie and the Boxer” filmmaker Zach Heinzerling, and two-time News and Documentary Emmy Award winner Gabrielle Schonder, known for her contributions to “Frontline” and “60 Minutes.”
The film is being produced and financed MRC Non-Fiction, a division of MRC, which is currently engaged with IndieWire parent company Pmc in a joint venture partnership.
Per the official synopsis: “The film reflects on what Rudy Giuliani once represented to most Americans: a man whose steady response to the attacks of September 11th, 2001 transcended partisan politics and transformed him into a national hero, and explores how the man christened ‘America’s Mayor’ fell from grace and into a downward spiral that’s marred his once venerable reputation.
