NEON and Picturehouse Entertainment have released the trailer for Luca Guadagnino’s much-anticipated new film Artificial. The film stars Andrew Garfield as controversial OpenAI founder Sam Altman.
Oscar-nominated director Guadagnino (Call Me By Your Name, Challengers) has teamed up with Emmy Award-winning Saturday Night Live writer Simon Rich to tell the exceptionally timely story of Altman, CEO of OpenAI, the artificial intelligence company behind ChatGPT.
The film is produced by David Heyman p.g.a., Jeffrey Clifford p.g.a., Luca Guadagnino p.g.a., Jennifer Fox p.g.a., and Simon Rich p.g.a. The film’s music and original songs are by Damon Albarn.
Artificial chronicles the incredibly consequential days leading up to the sudden firing and reinstatement of Sam Altman, as the fate of who gets to control the technology at the centre of an AI arms race hangs in the balance.
With an outstanding ensemble cast including Andrew Garfield, Yura Borisov, Monica Barbaro, Cooper Hoffman, Jason Schwartzman, Chris O’Dowd, Ike Barinholtz and Mark Rylance, this sobering, darkly funny and urgent film will hit the Autumn festival circuit with screenings at both the New York Film Festival and the London Film Festival before arriving in UK and Irish cinemas in the New Year.
Artificial will be released on 22nd January 2027.

Marc is a self-confessed nerd. Ever since seeing Star Wars for the first time around 1979 he’s been an unapologetic fan of the Wars and still believes, with Clone Wars and now Underworld, we are yet to see the best Star Wars. He’s a dad of two who now doesn’t have the time (or money) to collect the amount of toys, comics, movies and books he once did, much to the relief of his long-suffering wife. In the real world he’s a graphic designer. He started Following the Nerd because he was tired of searching a million sites every day for all the best news that he loves and decided to create one place where you can go to get the whole lot. Secretly he longs to be sitting in the cockpit of his YT-1300 Corellian Transport ship with his co-pilot Chewie, roaming the universe, waiting for his next big adventure, but feels just at home watching cartoons with his kids….
