WeCrashed
The story of WeWork has been combed over time and time again in both books and documentaries, but on March 18 AppleTV+ brought us its own rendition with WeCrashed: The Rise and Fall of WeWork. It’s also got big name actors behind it, including Jared Leto as co-founder Adam Neumann and Anne Hathaway as Adam’s wife Rebekah Neumann.
The show’s based on a Wondery podcast of the same name, and follows the power couple through their origin story with their communal working space startup through their spike in investments before everything came crashing down.
There has also been a Hulu documentary WeWork: Or The Making and Breaking of a $47 Billion Unicorn, which is similarly light on details and gets caught up in the relationships of the main players involved, though it does offer a more down-to-earth (if that’s even possible when talking about tech startups) look at what caused the WeWork bubble before it eventually popped.
