Andrew Garfield has discussed his role in Artificial, the biographical drama focusing on OpenAI CEO Sam Altman. The project was dropped by Amazon MGM Studios last month, with Neon swiftly acquiring distribution rights. The film, directed by Luca Guadagnino, centres on the firing and subsequent rehiring of Altman (played by Garfield) in November 2023. The film was set to be released by Amazon MGM Studios, though it dropped the project as it said it would be "better served if it were released by a different studio". On 19 June, Amazon MGM Studios said (via Deadline): "We have the utmost respect and admiration for Luca Guadagnino as an award-winning filmmaker – not to mention a longstanding relationship that we hope to continue."
