SpaceX passes on Moving Mars in 2013
The story of Moving Mars was first created in 2013. After the script was finished I asked SpaceX if they wanted to invest in the film in exchange for the name "SpaceX" to be used in the film. I figured moving planets would give SpaceX god status. Little did I know SpaceX would achieved god status without being able to move planets. Jessica Taylor from the Marketing Department of SpaceX politely passed.

Hi Doug,
I received your presentation thank you. You put a great deal of thought into this project and it shows. As a company with the single goal of making human life multi-planetary and colonizing Mars, your film premise is not lost on us. Unfortunately, at this stage in the company we are not in the market to partake in developing movies. Thank you for thinking of us and reaching out. We wish you the best of luck with this project and hope to see it in the theaters someday.
