Yeah, but those people shouldn’t really have any biopics unless they’re already very old and they don’t really have anything new going on in their lives
Considering Shine and A Beautiful Mind both were (highly inaccurate) biopics of living people and both won Oscars, I’d say it works out if you do it right.

Why?
Because the story told in the biopic wouldn’t have any conclusion
Do all biopics end in death? Is it a prerequisite? Because like, lots of them definitely don’t end in death.
Those that don’t end in the main character’s old age, when nothing of interest usually happens. That’s why there are good biopics about living people

I mean, those people were already quite old when they were done, so nothing interesting enough to put on a movie would have usually happened.
Elon musk is still quite active, enough to render any biopic obsolete
