Luca Guadagnino's "Artificial" teaser released, set for US debut Dec 25

Luca Guadagnino’s biopic “Artificial,” chronicling the rise of OpenAI executive Sam Altman, will hit U.S. theaters on December 25 under the distribution banner of Neon. The film, whose first teaser trailer debuted this week, is set to premiere at the New York Film Festival in October before its wide release. After Amazon MGM Studios withdrew from the project in June, Neon acquired the rights and scheduled the holiday‑season launch.

The shift in distribution underscores a broader trend of major technology figures entering Hollywood, prompting industry observers to note the growing intersection of Silicon Valley and the silver screen. “Artificial” joins a slate of recent projects that explore the influence of tech leaders, positioning the film as a focal point for discussions about the cultural impact of artificial‑intelligence enterprises.
