Red Hot Chili Peppers nod politely as Netflix skips credits on Hillel doc
Red Hot Chili Peppers clarify they had zero creative input in the Netflix documentary centered on late guitarist Hillel Slovak, though they did agree to on-camera interviews out of respect. The band emphasizes the film is not about them but focuses solely on Slovak, a founding member who died in 1988.
Director Ben Feldman frames the story as one of teenage bonds turning into an iconic rock formation. Meanwhile, producer Michael Beinhorn reignites old tensions, calling frontman Anthony Kiedis "tone-deaf."
