Elon Musk, sued by the producers of 'Blade Runner 2049,' had a three-word response to the litigation: 'That movie sucked'

When Elon Musk introduced Tesla's robotaxi, the Cybercab, earlier this month, he showed a slide during his presentation that probably looked familiar to Blade Runner 2049 fans. It featured the back of a person wearing a trench coat against a desert-like landscape with high-rise buildings in the background.

WBD was Alcon’s domestic distributor for the 2017 release of Blade Runner 2049. It has limited clip licensing rights, though not for Tesla’s livestream TV event, the lawsuit claims. Alcon says it wasn’t informed about the brand deal until the day of the unveiling.
