Jimmy Kimmel wants Elon Musk to “stay in [his] lane” after criticizing Christopher Nolan’s casting of Lupita Nyong’o in “The Odyssey.”

During the comedian’s opening monologue on “Jimmy Kimmel Live” Tuesday, Kimmel discussed how the billionaire businessman and other “trolls” have had to “come up with random stuff to complain about to distract us.”

He told viewers, “Elon Musk is now attacking Christopher Nolan, the film director, for the way he cast the movie ‘The Odyssey.’”

“He’s upset because Christopher Nolan hired Lupita Nyong’o to play a character he believes should be played by a white woman,” Kimmel added.

Kimmel, 58, then read a tweet that Musk, 54, shared about director Nolan’s decision to cast a Black woman as Helen of Troy, whose beauty sparked the Trojan War in Greek mythology.

“Musk posted [on X], ‘Chris Nolan desecrated ‘The Odyssey’ so that he would be eligible for an Academy Award.” Kimmel read to his audience. “Followed by, ‘Who specifically is a–hole who added DEI lies to Academy Awards eligibility instead of it just being about making the best movie?’”

Kimmel sarcastically dubbed the question “a good” one, quipping, “While we’re at it, who specifically is the a–hole who thought this was a cool design for a truck?”

“I mean, stay in your lane,” he said as an image of Musk’s Tesla Cybertruck was displayed onscreen.

Page Six has reached out to reps for both Nyong’o and Musk for comment but did not immediately hear back.

Last week, Alec Baldwin also slammed Musk’s remarks about Nyong’o.

“Dear Elon… but she IS the most beautiful woman in the world…Alec,” the “30 Rock” alum, 68, wrote via Instagram alongside a photo of the Oscar-winning actress, 43.

The X owner has been throwing attacks at Nolan online for the past few days.

When someone asked, “Why is Christopher Nolan like so many other directors so keen to race swap white characters?” Musk responded, “He wants the awards.”

The Tesla CEO alleged that the filmmaker, 55, “lost his integrity” by casting the Oscar-winning actress in the role.

Earlier this month, Musk also tweeted about rumors that transgender actor Elliot Page had been cast as Achilles, the hero of the Trojan War, writing that the idea was “one of the dumbest and twisted things p[he’s] ever heard.”

After it was announced that Page, 39, would actually portray the character Elpenor, the SpaceX founder — who is estranged from his trans daughter, Vivian — re-posted a tweet that read, “I’m not mocking her masculinity. I’m denying its existence.”
