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

Pop star Grimes is set to appear in the AI-generated sci-fi anthology film Gods Don’t Give Gifts, billed as “the first AI film to come to theatres,” which releases on December 4th. Grimes will lend both her likeness and vocal performance to the movie. The film is produced by AI studio Fable and directed by Jack London, known online as Gossip Goblin. Set in a future “where bodies are disposable and consciousness has been commoditized,” the anthology depicts four interconnected stories that collide with the horrifying consequences of humanity’s attempt to transcend the flesh. The themes align with Grimes’ past explorations of transhumanism and artificial intelligence, and she is also working on an AI-themed album called Psy Opera. While there has been much hype around AI in Hollywood, Gods Don’t Give Gifts serves as a notable test case for the commercial potential of AI films, especially given that previous AI projects have been underwhelming.
