Steve Bannon reportedly filmed 15 hours of interviews with Jeffrey Epstein before Epstein’s death in 2019, allegedly for a documentary that has never materialized, according to recent reports. Despite Bannon’s assertions that the footage was meant for a documentary titled “The Monsters: Epstein’s Life Among the Global Elite,” sources familiar with the matter suggest Bannon was more focused on rehabilitating Epstein’s tarnished public image, and the he provided PR advice to the notorious sex trafficker.
As reported by Business Insider, Before Epstein’s 2019 death in jail, he spent hours being interviewed on camera by Steve Bannon. A clip published by the New York Post in 2021 shows Bannon verbally sparring with Epstein, challenging him on his controversial past (Video below). Bannon, known for his provocative tactics in right-wing circles, used the footage to project himself into the spotlight.
Epstein, facing charges of sex trafficking, spent considerable time with Bannon, who reportedly aimed to help Epstein navigate his legal and media troubles. Bannon boasted about shooting 15 hours’ worth of video at Epstein’s residences in Manhattan and Paris, claiming it was for the documentary “The Monsters.”
However, despite Bannon’s claims of producing a documentary, insiders familiar with the situation describe Bannon and Epstein as friends who strategized together. Bannon, a former advisor to President Donald Trump, grew close to Epstein in 2018, advising him on handling legal and media scrutiny. Bannon continued to associate with Epstein until Epstein’s arrest in 2019.
Epstein’s sudden death in jail thwarted potential legal consequences, leaving many unanswered questions about his vast network and operations. Bannon, now serving a sentence for contempt of Congress, has remained silent on his relationship with Epstein despite persistent media inquiries.
The whereabouts of Bannon’s footage remain unknown, raising speculation about its potential revelations and legal implications. As investigations into Epstein’s associates continue, the mystery surrounding Bannon’s unreleased tapes adds another layer to the complex saga of Epstein’s life and demise.
Bannon, who frequently speaks to journalists, did not respond to numerous voicemails, emails, and text messages from Business Insider over the course of several years requesting comment about his relationship with Epstein. He did not respond to an additional request for comment in a letter mailed to him on July 9 in the federal prison in Danbury, Connecticut, where he is incarcerated.
