Few folks have rocked Jeopardy like Arthur Chu. Earlier this year, the seemingly unassuming insurance analyst got a shot on the perennial TV quiz show and instantly became a polarizing figure, hated and loved for his unorthodox tactics and refusal to back down to internet haters. During an impressive eleven-game winning streak, Arthur amassed $298,200 and a new king of the nerds was born. Since then, Arthur has leveraged his proverbial fifteen minutes of infamy to use as a megaphone for social commentary on a variety of issues.
Arthur is an interesting guy, and his story is a fascinating, unique take on the American dream. So naturally, some folks are making a documentary on him. Who is Arthur Chu? will be a look at the man, the myth, the legend, following him back to Jeopardy! next month for his final showdown, the Tournament of Champions. The filmmakers are currently in the throes of a Kickstarter campaign to make it happen.
