Grimes is going to star in an AI movie that’s coming to theaters

Pop star Grimes is set to appear in 'Gods Don’t Give Gifts,' a film produced by Fable that is being marketed as the first AI-generated movie to hit theaters. The project serves as a test case for the commercial viability of using AI to replicate actor likeness and vocal performances.
Why it matters
The integration of AI into film production raises significant questions about the future of acting, intellectual property, and the quality of AI-assisted storytelling.
The AI-generated sci-fi film Gods Don’t Give Gifts has added a bit of star power: Pop star Grimes is going to appear in the movie. Billed as “the first AI film to come to theatres,” Gods Don’t Give Gifts is a notable test case for the commercial potential of AI films, and it releases on December 4th. Grimes — who will be lending both her likeness and vocal performance to the movie, which you can see in the clip above — potentially gives the project some legitimacy.
