Hulu’s ‘Clavicular Doc’ Turns Out to Be About Tony Huge and Deaths in Thailand
“Get Huge: Looksmaxxing to Death,” from Adam McKay’s company, premieres Nov. 10. Clavicular — who sent Disney a cease-and-desist over being filmed — appears only briefly.
The rumored Hulu documentary about Clavicular isn’t about Clavicular.
The Hollywood Reporter revealed on Oct. 26 that the project is a three-part true-crime series, Get Huge: Looksmaxxing to Death, premiering Nov. 10 on Hulu in the U.S. and on Disney+ internationally. The series centers on biohacker Tony Huge and a mysterious death in Thailand that, THR stresses, “has nothing whatsoever to do with Clavicular.”
Braden Peters, the 20-year-old streamer known as Clavicular, is the most famous figure in the looksmaxxing scene, but his likeness is used only briefly, according to THR. Peters had served Disney/Hulu a cease-and-desist letter after he says he caught documentarians Jennings Brown and James Kristofik filming him without permission backstage at the Elena Velez fashion show in New York City in February.
Per the logline, the series follows “Dr. Tony Huge, a guru pushing homemade biohacks on a devoted following willing to risk everything.” When “Leo & Longevity,” described as a penis-enlargement expert and one of Huge’s closest allies, is found dead in Thailand, “alpha-male influencers become online sleuths,” questioning Huge and his right-hand man, Connor Murphy. “Leo isn’t the first of the inner circle to die under mysterious circumstances,” the logline says.
Producers pitch it as “an unflinching portrait of masculinity in the influencer age.” It is directed by Stacey Lee and produced by Boardwalk Pictures and Adam McKay’s Hyperobject Industries, with McKay among the executive producers — the Hollywood liberal behind Don’t Look Up.
Viewers on the right have grown used to Hollywood treating young men’s online culture as a horror show, and the marketing — “bulging muscles, bigger penises, eternal youth” — suggests this one won’t be different. The logline’s framing is the producers’ own.
Separately, Peters has pleaded not guilty to charges in Massachusetts, which he denies.
