Hunter Biden celebrated his father’s unprecedented pardon of his crimes by watching a movie about himself, The Post has learned.
As news the first son had received a sweeping pardon from President Joe Biden Sunday, he was settling down in Los Angeles to a private screening of the recently completed documentary his “sugar brother” Hollywood lawyer Kevin Morris made about him, a source close to the Biden family said.
The documentary — somewhat ironically — documents Hunter’s recent legal struggles on the federal tax evasion and weapons charges he is now cleared of, as well as his work as an artist. It has been in the works for the last few years, according to reports.
“He’s happy and a huge weight was lifted off which he’s had to carry since his dad got elected,” the source told The Post.
Details about the documentary have been kept top secret and no production company, release date or even information about who has worked on it has been released.
Hunter did not indulge in any public celebration of the controversial blanket pardon that covers all offenses committed between Jan. 1, 2014 and Dec. 1, 2024, including any crimes for which the first son has not been charged.
President Biden said the criminal problems for Hunter only began after several of his political opponents in Congress “instigated them to attack me and oppose my election.”
“He’s trying to keep a low profile about it,” said the source, referring to Hunter. “It’s obviously another sign of his privilege in life and doesn’t endear him to anyone.”
Morris, who made his fortune on a TV deal related to the show “South Park”, met Hunter at a California fundraiser for Joe Biden in 2019. Since then, he has loaned the first son millions to help with expenses and to pay off his federal taxes.
Over the following three years, according to IRS whistleblower Joseph Ziegler, Morris gave Hunter $4.9 million — for his overdue tax bills, legal fees, housing, and car payments.
At least one loan to Hunter from Morris, for at least $1.2 million in 2020, carried interest and requires repayment beginning in 2025.
In addition to filming Hunter at work painting in his Los Angeles studio, Morris has followed the first son during his court appearances, sometimes filming him with his own phone. The high-profile entertainment lawyer has also given him legal advice, according to reports.
Morris also traveled undercover to Serbia in 2021 to allegedly spy on a biopic being made about the scandal-scarred first son, according to film producer Phelim McAleer. That film, “My Son Hunter” was released in 2022.
Hunter pleaded guilty in September to nine tax offenses for avoiding $1.4 million in federal taxes between 2016 and 2019.
He was also found guilty of three federal gun charges in June after he was charged with possession of a firearm while addicted to illegal drugs.
“He’s never had to pay for any of his actions in life,” said the source. “Which is why in some ways, they’ve created a monster. Narcissistic and self-serving.”
Abbe Lowell, a lawyer representing Hunter, did not immediately return a request for comment Wednesday.
