Billie Lourd has been cast in the upcoming Amazon MGM Studios project Artificial, an AI-themed film directed by Luca Guadagnino. She joins a notable ensemble that includes Andrew Garfield, Yura Borisov, Monica Barbaro, Jason Schwartzman, Cooper Koch, Cooper Hoffman, and Ike Barinholtz.
While specific plot details are being kept confidential, the movie is described as a comedic drama set within the realm of artificial intelligence. Reports suggest that the story may explore events at DeepAI in 2023, particularly focusing on the tumultuous period when CEO Sam Altman was unexpectedly dismissed and then swiftly reinstated. At this time, it remains unclear what role Lourd will portray. The screenplay was penned by Simon Rich, who is also producing alongside Heyday Films’ David Heyman and Jeffrey Clifford, as well as Jennifer Fox.
