MRC NON-FICTION & ROLLING STONE FILMS TEAM UP FOR RUDY GIULIANI FEATURE DOCUMENTARY

mrc non fiction logo

MRC Non-Fiction and Rolling Stone Films today announced they are in production on a feature documentary about the public career of Rudy Giuliani, based on the 2020 article “What Happened to America’s Mayor?” by Seth Hettena.  

  • Directors: Oscar®-nominated Zach Heinzerling (Cutie & The Boxer) and two-time Emmy® Award-winner Gabrielle Schonder (“The NRA: Under Fire”).  
  • The project is slated for a 2022 release and is produced and financed by MRC Non-Fiction. 
  • 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.  
  • “Zach and Gabrielle are both thoughtful storytellers who have had incredible success telling rich stories about complicated characters,” said Amit Dey, Head of MRC Non-Fiction.  “Of all the things one can say about Rudy Giuliani, ‘complicated’ may be an understatement but Seth’s article captured the essence of what we believe is a true American epic, from Flatbush to Four Seasons Landscaping, regardless of where it ends.” 
  • "Rarely has a public figure in America fallen so far so fast in the public eye," says Jason Fine, Rolling Stone's Director Content Development. "As we've reported on Rudy's downfall -- his bizarre political maneuvering, shady business dealings, and now, being under criminal investigation by the same U.S. Attorney's Office in Manhattan that he once ran -- we see his story as a parable for the dark forces that have shaped American politics." 
  • Zach Heinzerling is repped by UTA.  Gabrielle Schonder is repped by ICM.
