Judd Apatow Takes Comedic Aim at Hollywood and Politics During DGA Awards Host Stint

Veteran filmmaker delivers pointed commentary on industry controversies and current events in sixth hosting appearance

Filmmaker and comedian Judd Apatow took center stage at the Directors Guild of America Awards on Saturday, delivering a biting and humorous monologue that targeted Hollywood personalities, political figures, and current cultural trends.

Hosting the event for the sixth time at the Beverly Hilton, Apatow opened with self-deprecating humor, comparing himself to legendary comedian Mel Brooks. His commentary quickly expanded to cover a range of topics, blending industry insights with pointed jokes.

The comedian didn’t shy away from addressing high-profile legal disputes and creative challenges in Hollywood. He made light of the ongoing legal issues surrounding the film “It Ends With Us,” and commented on filmmakers’ recent commercial struggles, particularly targeting Kevin Costner’s expensive film project “Horizon.”

Political commentary formed a significant part of Apatow’s routine. He directly addressed former President Donald Trump and tech entrepreneur Elon Musk, delivering sharp-witted critiques. “There are some of you in this room who voted for Trump — I won’t judge you but God will,” he told the audience.

Apatow particularly enjoyed poking fun at Musk’s social media activity, especially after the Tesla CEO posted a meme from “Step Brothers,” a film Apatow produced. He highlighted the irony of Musk’s interpretation of the movie’s premise, noting that the film is about “two morons.”

The comedian’s commentary extended to satirical suggestions for potential entertainment projects, including tongue-in-cheek concepts like “The Real Housewives of Jan. 6” and “Dune 3 with all gay sandworms.”

Concluding his hosting duties, Apatow expressed a provocative wish for Musk, Trump, and their wealthy supporters to relocate to Mars, suggesting this might help Earth “return to normal.”

Throughout the evening, Apatow maintained his reputation for delivering incisive industry criticism wrapped in humor, continuing his memorable tradition at the DGA Awards.
