Jeremy Corbell
Jeremy Corbell is the polarising American filmmaker and UFO/UAP advocate who turned leaked Navy videos into a cultural flashpoint, and keeps pushing the conversation further with every documentary and congressional hearing.
Who is Jeremy Corbell?
Jeremy Corbell is an American documentary filmmaker, self-described UAP journalist, and martial artist who has made a career out of dragging fringe topics, particularly UFOs and government secrecy, into mainstream debate. He is best known for directing ‘Bob Lazar: Area 51 & Flying Saucers’ (2018) and for co-hosting the ‘WEAPONIZED’ podcast alongside veteran investigative journalist George Knapp.
His style is confrontational and promotional by design: Corbell presents himself as a conduit between whistleblowers/insiders and the public, regularly claiming that the materials he releases constitute evidence of non-human craft. That claim is contested, independent analysts, the Pentagon, and the broader scientific community have not confirmed his interpretation. What’s not contested is that some of the videos he publicised in 2021 were acknowledged by the U.S. Navy as genuine footage; what they show remains very much in dispute.
Corbell became a recurring face around the resurgent UAP discourse on Capitol Hill, including activity around the September 2025 Congressional UAP hearing, positioning himself as an advocate and source for lawmakers and journalists covering the topic.
His latest project, the documentary ‘Sleeping Dog’, opened in select theatres in May 2026, adding another chapter to a filmography built entirely around the argument that governments are hiding something extraordinary. Whether you find him a courageous truth-teller or a savvy myth-marketer probably says more about your priors than his résumé.
