Jason Schwartzman, Luca Guadagnino spotted filming OpenAI movie in S.F. park
' Artificial,' the forthcoming film about San Francisco company OpenAI, has been filming around the city this week, and fans have been running into the production crew all over town. The $40 million project follows CEO Sam Altman's firing and rehiring at the artificial intelligence company in 2023. The drama is helmed by ' Challengers ' director Luca Guadagnino and stars Andrew Garfield (' The Social Network ') as Altman, Mill Valley-raised Monica Barbaro (' A Complete Unknown ') as former Chief Technology Officer Mira Murati and Ike Barinholtz ('The Studio') as tech billionaire Elon Musk. Scenes were filmed at Dolores Park on Wednesday, July 30, according to a Reddit user who shared photos of Yura Borisov (' Anora ') and Jason Schwartzman (' Mountainhead ') filming a scene on a bench. In the photos, Borisov wore a grey T-shirt and long necklace, both featuring the OpenAI logo, while Schwartzman was dressed in a red hoodie. Guadagnino was also spotted at the park. Other social media users reported seeing filming notices from the company Eternal Leo Productions around the park listed for Tuesday, July 29, through Thursday, July 31. Notices were also spotted in North Beach and the Marina District. Various casting calls for stand-in roles in 'Artificial' were found online for actors including Barinholtz and Cooper Hoffman ('Saturday Night') — Hoffman plays OpenAI President Greg Brockman. The roles were posted last week, with the final shoot dates wrapping up Friday, Aug. 1. The Chronicle has reached out to the San Francisco Film Commission for comment. Production company Eternal Leo is located at the same Southern California address as Amazon MGM Studios, which is working on 'Artificial.' A job listing for two office assistants shared by Film SF last week confirms that Eternal Leo is shooting a feature film in San Francisco. The city has been a hotspot over the past few months, with several productions filming in various neighborhoods. Earlier this month, 'The Steel Harp' shot scenes at the Seal Rock Inn Restaurant and Golden Gate Bridge, according to social media. Little information has been released about the project, but Mayor Daniel Lurie shared a video of a conversation he had with the film's co-director Alex Thompson in which he confirms the project's San Francisco setting. In May, Olivia Wilde and Seth Rogen surprised BART riders during rush hour when they filmed scenes at Glen Park Station for their upcoming romantic comedy, 'The Invite.'
