The HBO Original THE INVISIBLE PILOT, a three-part documentary series by Emmy®-winning filmmakers Phil Lott and Ari Mark, is a tale of a charismatic, daredevil husband and father who unexpectedly jumped off a bridge in 1977, despite a seemingly happy home life and a lucrative career as a pilot. His small-town Arkansas community searches for his body in vain while family and friends seek answers. Years later, a mysterious story emerges involving hypnosis, secret identities, and a double life of dangerous missions and law-breaking. And that’s just the beginning…
From Adam McKay (HBO’s “Succession” and “Q: Into The Storm“) comes a labyrinthine story that begins in Hazen, Arkansas, and ends up as part of one of the biggest political scandals of our time. THE INVISIBLE PILOT debuts Monday, April 4 9:00PM ET/PT with new episodes airing subsequent Mondays at the same time. The series will debut on HBO and be available to stream on HBO Max.
THE INVISIBLE PILOT unfolds in three chapters, each one divulging new, shocking surprises. When Gary Betzner, a father of three, unexpectedly commits suicide the mystery surrounding his death deepens and unfurls a caper-filled tale involving a clandestine world of drug smuggling, gun-running, and involvement in a covert war conducted at the highest level of the U.S. government.
With a wealth of colorful archival material and shaped by vibrant storytelling by Gary’s wife, ex-wife, children, friends, and associates, public defenders, law officers, and journalists, THE INVISIBLE PILOT is a cautionary tale of unchecked power and covert operations, centered around a small-town man with outsized dreams.
