Elon Musk Makes Surprise Appearance At Prime Video’s SXSW ‘Fallout’ Experience

Surprise, but no surprise: X Chairman and SpaceX founder Elon Musk made a cameo at Prime Video’s Fallout experience on SXSW Thursday night.
While not an everyday occurrence in Hollywood, Musk’s appearance wasn’t shocking as he’s a longtime friends with Fallout EP and director Jonathan Nolan. Not to mention, Musk reportedly lives in the Austin area.
In fact, Nolan sat down for a long conversation with Musk back at SXSW 2018 in which they canvassed several topics including SpaceX’s timeline for Mars exploration as well as hopes for an underground high-speed transportation system in Los Angeles. This all culminated with Musk and his brother singing a rendition of “My Little Butter Cup” from the Steve Martin-Chevy Chase-Martin Short 1980s comedy, The Three Amigos (watch below). It was a trippy experience that bears repeating, specifically because we need a post-pandemic update on SpaceX’s Mars mission.
