Overview
Bill Nye: Science Guy is a 2017 American biographical documentary film produced and directed by David Alvarado and Jason Sussberg of Structure Films, and produced by Seth Gordon, Kate McLean, and Nick Pampenella. The documentary has a runtime of one hour and thirty-five minutes and was released in the United States on April 10, 2017. In the film, Bill Nye is retiring his kid show act in a bid to become more like his late professor, astronomer Carl Sagan. Sagan had dreamed of launching a spacecraft that could revolutionize interplanetary exploration. Bill sets out to accomplish Sagan's mission, but he is pulled away when he is challenged by evolution and climate change contrarians to defend the scientific consensus. The documentary follows whether Bill can show the world why science matters in a culture increasingly indifferent to evidence. The documentary concept was originally pitched to the film's subject by Alvarado and Sussberg.
