O.J. Simpson movie parallels Kim Kardashian’s fake moon landing claim

O.J. Simpson Movie Parallels Kim Kardashian’s Moon Landing Claim

Two years before Kim Kardashian was born, her “Uncle O.J.” appeared in a film that oddly resembles the debunked conspiracy theory she discussed on her reality show. During the late 1970s, Hollywood envisioned O.J. Simpson as a movie star while he transitioned from a celebrated NFL running back to a popular Hertz spokesman, sports analyst, and all-around entertainer, with guidance from his friend and business partner, Robert Kardashian.

Now, in late 2025, one of Simpson’s old film projects mirrors the peculiar theory Kim Kardashian, one of Robert Kardashian’s well-known daughters, recently promoted on her family’s show.

Kim Kardashian’s Controversial View

In the latest episode of The Kardashians, Kim Kardashian expressed disbelief that the 1969 moon landing actually occurred, according to a report by People. She even tried to persuade actor Sarah Paulson, her co-star in the series All’s Fair, to share her doubts.

“I’ve seen a few videos of Buzz Aldrin talking about how it didn’t happen. He says it all the time now, in interviews,”

Kardashian claimed during the episode. However, fact-checkers at FullFact.org confirmed that Aldrin has never stated that the moon landing was fake.

Hollywood and Conspiracies

Simpson’s 1970s movie career, once a symbol of Hollywood’s optimism, has now taken on a strange relevance as his past film work unexpectedly intersects with one of today’s wildest celebrity-driven conspiracy claims.

Author’s summary: A 1970s O.J. Simpson film now echoes Kim Kardashian’s on-screen claim doubting the moon landing, linking Hollywood history with modern conspiracy culture.
