Amazon MGM drops Luca Guadagnino's Sam Altman biopic "Artificial" despite near-completion
By

Summary
Amazon MGM has abruptly dropped Luca Guadagnino's nearly-finished biopic "Artificial" about OpenAI founder Sam Altman, despite the film being close to completion with a planned 2027 release. The move is particularly awkward given Amazon's recent announcement of a "strategic partnership" with Altman. The studio is now shopping the film to other distributors.

Key quotes
· 2 pulledLuca Guadagnino and Andrew Garfield have been working on their new movie Artificial for a while now—to the point that outlets like Variety have been calling the film, a reportedly 'unsympathetic' biopic of OpenAI founder Sam Altman, 'nearly finished,' with an eye on a 2027 release.
Which is going to make things a little awkward in a couple of months, since the movie's distributor, Amazon MGM, has just announced that it's dropping the film entirely from its schedule, and is trying to shop it to someone (possibly anyone) else.
