Post your favorite Hollywood career implosions.>According to a 2023 The New York Times investigation by John Carreyrou, the production of Conquest was troubled and Rinsch's behavior became erratic.[1] A film union in Brazil complained about Rinsch's behavior on set, specifically his yelling and cursing at members of the crew.[18] He also began taking lisdexamfetamine, a prescription amphetamine.[19] In 2019, Rosés hired a behavioral health consultant to try to persuade Rinsch to enter rehab.[1]>The situation on set worsened and an "intervention" was held by Rosés, Rinsch's brother, his wife, and members of the crew of Conquest, urging him to go into rehab. As the project was running low on cash, Rinsch urged Netflix to send him more money, despite not meeting production deadlines for the first phase of the project. Netflix forwarded his production company another $11 million, which Rinsch transferred to his personal brokerage account and used to purchase stock options, losing around $6 million in weeks.>Rinsch sent emails to Netflix executives involved in the project stating that he had a way to map "the coronavirus signal emanating from within the earth". Rosés filed for divorce; in 2021, according to her lawyers, Rinsch told her that airplanes were "organic, intelligent forces", and he sent texts to her saying he had the power to predict lightning strikes and volcanic eruptions. In March 2021, Netflix cut off funding for Conquest, with no finished episodes submitted.
