Hulu's limited series The Dropout tells the true story of the fraudulent Silicon Valley biotech entrepreneur Elizabeth Holmes and the harmful repercussions of her lies, which include the death of Theranos chief scientist Ian Gibbons. Played by The Hobbit's Stephen Fry in The Dropout, Ian Gibbons was a well-respected, accomplished, and Cambridge-educated British biochemist. He became one of the first people hired by the young and hugely ambitious Stanford dropout Elizabeth Holmes (Amanda Seyfried) in 2005 and continued to work for Holmes until his untimely death in 2013.
