Writer & Director
Rian Johnson uses the film to craft a sharp irony of modern tech culture, wealth inequality, and performative "disruption," while critiquing systematic power structures. His intent revolves around exposing the hypocrisy and moral bankruptcy of elites who masquerade as innovators. Miles Bron reflects the fraudulent tech mogul—a man who steals ideas, takes credit for others’ work, and hides incompetence behind wealth and charisma. The "Disruptors", Miles’ friends represent complicit elites who enable corruption for personal gain, giving rise to insecure technology.
