Ok so make of this what you will but back as far as I believe the mid 00s Theroux was touting a Scientology Doc he was making/wanted to make I distinctly remember cause I used to watch everything he made. Anyways he was talking about it for years and years and eventually was seeming to make some progress on it but then Netflix released 'Going Clear'. I can't find it now but I saw an interview with him where he spoke about Going Clear briefly and he didn't seem pleased about it. His Scientology Doc btw is called 'My Scientology Movie'. Now it's kinda apples to oranges considering Theroux's style is much different than your standard doc but it really seemed to take the wind out of his sails when he had a good momentum up until then. I always wondered if he was somehow sandbagged behind the scenes.Did theoroux get a visit from the Feds to back down?
Haven't really watched much of his stuff since but it really hasn't had the same buzz around it either.
