“I know what I’m talking about! Give me what I want!” Studiocanal has revealed their official UK trailer for the making of documentary film titled Megadoc, made by director Mike Figgis. This mega documentary is somewhat like the Hearts of Darkness (which was a look at Coppola’s troubled Apocalypse Now set) for Megalopolis, which opened in theaters last year. The only problem is that Megalopolis not only flopped big time, but no one really cares about it anymore. This Megadoc look at the chaos of filmmaking features appearances by Francis Ford Coppola (but of course!), Adam Driver, Aubrey Plaza, Nathalie Emmanuel, Dustin Hoffman, Giancarlo Esposito, Chloe Fineman, Shia LaBeouf, Laurence Fishburne, Jon Voight, Talia Shire, Robert De Niro, and more. It originally premiered at the 2025 Venice Film Festival & Telluride Film Festival this year and already opened in the US back in September – you can watch it on VOD now. This is the best trailer yet, more than enough to convince anyone to give it a look – just to see how Coppola might’ve really lead this movie astray. “Who cares if you die broke if you made something that you think is beautiful.”

Here’s the new UK trailer (+ poster) for Mike Figgis’ making of doc film Megadoc, direct from YouTube:

You can rewatch the official US trailer for Mike Figgis’ Megadoc film right here or the initial teaser again.

This September: A raw, fly-on-the-wall documentary about Francis Ford Coppola’s decades-long journey in creating his self-financed passion project, Megalopolis. The bold and unrelenting epic returns in Mike Figgis’ compelling portrait of Coppola’s creative process – weaving together archival material, unfiltered cast interviews, and a close-up view of how the legendary filmmaker drew from Roman history, political allegory, and his own singular vision to shape the world of Megalopolis. This isn’t a record of a production on the brink, it’s a personal memoir unfolding in real time. Megadoc is directed by British indie filmmaker Mike Figgis, director of many films including Stormy Monday, Internal Affairs, Mr. Jones, The Browning Version, Leaving Las Vegas, One Night Stand, Miss Julie, Timecode, Hotel, Cold Creek Manor, Love Live Long, Suspension of Disbelief, and Somebody Up There Likes Me previously. Produced by Tara Li-An and James Mockoski. This first premiered at the 2025 Venice Film Festival this fall. Utopia debuted Megadoc in select US theaters on September 19th, 2025. Now streaming on CANAL+ in France & soon elsewhere.

Full Trailer for Coppola’s ‘Megadoc’ About the Making of His Latest

“No one I’m working with realizes how weird of a movie this really is…” Utopia has debuted the full official trailer for a crazy wacky making of documentary film titled Megadoc, from director Mike Figgis. This mega documentary is trying to be the Hearts of Darkness (which was a look at Coppola’s troubled Apocalypse Now set) for Megalopolis, which opened in theaters last year. The only problem is that Megalopolis not only flopped big time, but it’s just not a good movie by any measure, and Coppola doesn’t get this. Oh well. Yes he spent tons of money on it (and comments on that in here), and he’s trying to be bold and provocative again, but it’s a complete mess. This Megadoc look at the chaos of filmmaking features appearances by Francis Ford Coppola (but of course!), Adam Driver, Aubrey Plaza, Nathalie Emmanuel, Dustin Hoffman, Giancarlo Esposito, Chloe Fineman, Shia LaBeouf, Laurence Fishburne, Jon Voight, Talia Shire, Robert De Niro, and more. It just premiered at the 2025 Venice Film Festival & Telluride Film Festival last week, and will be out to watch in limited theaters later this month. Not long of a wait at all! Who wants to watch this?

Here’s the main official trailer for Mike Figgis’ making of doc film Megadoc, direct from YouTube:
