An OpenAI movie on the life of Sam Altman is in the works and it is called Artificial
It seems Hollywood still can't get enough of Silicon Valley drama. Ever since The Social Network showed that boardroom betrayals and billion-dollar battles could be just as thrilling as a car-flipping Transformers blockbuster, the film industry has kept a close eye on tech's biggest stories. And now, the next chapter in that tradition could be taking shape, with none other than OpenAI's Sam Altman at the centre of the early discussions to turn the recent turbulent history of OpenAI into a film, according to The Hollywood Reporter, director Luca Guadagnino has entered talks. Amazon MGM Studios is working on the project, which for now is titled Artificial and which guarantees to mix corporate crises with comedic humour. The movie will cover the sensational week in November 2023 when OpenAI co-founder and CEO Sam Altman was suddenly fired and no less quickly reinstated, over a span of five details are under wraps, but the insider says the movie will be a biting, satirical examination of the cutthroat world of AI, where billion-dollar bets about the future of humanity are placed by groups that don't always see eye to eye. Casting remains in its infancy, but initial rumours point to some prominent stars being eyed. Andy Garfield, star of The Social Network and The Amazing Spider-Man, is in line to play the role of Altman. Monica Barbaro (of A Complete Unknown) is also in negotiations to play Mira Murati, the former CTO of OpenAI who replaced Chris Liddell as interim CEO during the change in leadership. Russian actor Yura Borisov (Anora) is reportedly in the running for the role of Ilya Sutskever, the co-founder and chief scientist at the centre of Altman's removal. But we don't yet know the cast of characters. In case you didn't catch the boardroom bombshell in 2023, here's a brief Altman was abruptly ousted as CEO, with the board citing a loss of confidence in his ability to lead. The move shook the tech industry to its core, particularly since Altman had become a high-profile face of AI advancement due to ChatGPT's explosive popularity. But in a plot twist befitting its script, the firing didn't stick. Only five days afterwards, under popular protest, pressure from within, and likely a lot of behind-the-scenes manoeuvres, Altman was back at the helm. The sheer speed and theatrics of the events, executive departures, employees' rebellion, and a come-full-circle return, would make Artificial a potentially enthralling watch. And with the movie to lean into the inherent strangeness and paradoxes of the world of AI, it could be the one to strike the perfect harmony between Silicon Valley satire and high-stakes or not audiences are familiar with the ins and outs of OpenAI's leadership saga, Artificial seems poised to offer a wildly entertaining take on an already bizarre real-world episode. And with AI tools like ChatGPT becoming increasingly embedded in our daily lives, the timing couldn't be better. If done right, this film could become The Social Network of this generation—only funnier, weirder, and just a little bit smarter.

Andrew Garfield Reveals His Condition for Returning as Spider-Man
Yara Sameh Andrew Garfield has not hidden his desire to return as Spider-Man in a fourth movie following 2012's 'The Amazing Spider-Man,' 2014's 'Amazing Spider-Man 2' and 2021's 'Spider-Man: No Way Home,' the latter of which powered to $1.9 billion at the worldwide box office and saw Garfield teaming up with fellow web-slingers Tom Holland and Tobey Maguire. Garfield said at Middle East Film & Comic Con that coming back as Spider-Man hinges on an offbeat story idea. 'It would have to be very weird,' he said. 'I would like to do something very strange. Something very unique, and offbeat and surprising, kind of like the creative freedom they have with the animated 'Spider-Verse' movies.' In an interview with Esquire magazine last year, the two-time Oscar nominee said he was 'left dangling' when his Spider-Man role came to such an abrupt end after 'Amazing Spider-Man 2' disappointed at the box office. The film's lackluster performance resulted in Sony coming to an agreement with Disney to share Spider-Man so that the superhero could officially enter the Marvel Cinematic Universe. Holland took over the role in 2017's 'Spider-Man: Homecoming.' But the success of 'No Way Home' proved there's still a lot of love for Garfield's iteration of the comic book hero. 'For sure, I would 100% come back if it was the right thing, if it's additive to the culture, if there's a great concept or something that hasn't been done before that's unique and odd and exciting and that you can sink your teeth into,' Garfield told the magazine . 'I love that character, and it brings joy. If part of what I bring is joy, then I'm joyful in return.' Garfield told GQ UK at the start of the year that rumors claiming he has signed on to star opposite Holland again in Marvel's 'Spider-Man 4″ are not true, although he is blatantly aware that no comic book movie fan is going to believe him. 'I'm gonna disappoint you. Yeah, no,' Garfield told the publication. 'But I know no one's gonna trust anything I say from now on.' When asked if he'd be interested in coming back as Spider-Man or signing on to star in another big-budget Hollywood franchise, the Oscar nominee answered: 'If it felt in line with my soul and was gonna be fun. Maybe I'm gonna have like five kids at some point, and I'm gonna need to start saving up for the school tuition or something.' Holland's next 'Spider-Man' movie is officially titled 'Spider-Man: Brand New Day' and is set to hit theaters July 31, 2026. read more New Tourism Route To Launch in Old Cairo Ahmed El Sakka-Led Play 'Sayidati Al Jamila' to Be Staged in KSA on Dec. 6 Mandy Moore Joins Season 2 of "Dr. Death" Anthology Series Don't Miss These Movies at 44th Cairo Int'l Film Festival Today Amr Diab to Headline KSA's MDLBEAST Soundstorm 2022 Festival Arts & Culture Mai Omar Stuns in Latest Instagram Photos Arts & Culture "The Flash" to End with Season 9 Arts & Culture Ministry of Culture Organizes four day Children's Film Festival Arts & Culture Canadian PM wishes Muslims Eid-al-Adha News Egypt confirms denial of airspace access to US B-52 bombers News Ayat Khaddoura's Final Video Captures Bombardment of Beit Lahia Lifestyle Pistachio and Raspberry Cheesecake Domes Recipe News Australia Fines Telegram $600,000 Over Terrorism, Child Abuse Content Arts & Culture Nicole Kidman and Keith Urban's $4.7M LA Home Burglarized Videos & Features Bouchra Dahlab Crowned Miss Arab World 2025 ..

Inside Andrew Garfield's love life as he moves on with 'quiet' new romance
Our community members are treated to special offers, promotions and adverts from us and our partners. You can check out at any time. More info Andrew Garfield, the renowned actor, will be appearing on BBC One's Who Do You Think You Are? tonight at 9pm. This follows rumours that the actor is discreetly enjoying a new relationship with a high-profile actress. The 41-year-old actor was born in Los Angeles, California and resided there until he was three years old when he relocated to the UK. He spent his childhood in the charming town of Epsom, Surrey with his parents, Lynn, Richard and his older sibling. Before turning 16, Andrew had initially intended to study business at university. However, a friend suggested he should consider A-Level acting after their class found themselves one person short. To further his acting ambitions, he studied at the Central School of Speech and Drama, University of London while working his first job at Starbucks, reports Surrey Live. In 2005, his career began to gain momentum with his television debut in the popular Channel 4 teen drama Sugar Rush. Two years later, he featured in series three of the BBC's Doctor Who, starring in the episodes Daleks in Manhattan and Evolution of the Daleks. Acting breakthrough (Image:) His big break arrived in 2007 when his performance in Boy A garnered significant attention. He played a notorious killer attempting to start anew after prison, a role that earned him a 2008 BAFTA Award for Best Actor. Since catapulting to international fame with his iconic portrayal of Peter Parker in The Amazing Spider-Man, the multi-award-winning actor has garnered a staggering 39 accolades for his acting prowess, including prestigious trophies like the Golden Globe, Satellite Award, and Tony Award. He has even scored an Academy Award nomination. As Andrew once again captures our attention on the small screen, it's hard not to take a glimpse into his romantic history, which has certainly piqued curiosity through the years. Emma Stone (Image:) Andrew's most talked-about romance was with none other than Emma Stone, his co-star from The Amazing Spider-Man. What initially began as fictional chemistry between Peter Parker and Gwen Stacy blossomed into a real-world love affair, thrilling their fans. Emerging publicly with unrestrained displays of affection, Andrew expressed his joy to MTV News in 2012 upon discovering Emma would be playing Gwen. He passionately remarked: "She keeps you on your toes and that wakes you up. That was the beginning." He nostalgically continued: "Those are the days I'd look forward to, you know? For [my character] Peter as well, because Peter goes through some horrible stuff in the movie. There's some joy to be had when experiencing his first love." Their relationship lasted four years, enduring even through their return as co-stars in The Amazing Spider-Man 2. However, by 2015, news broke that the couple had decided to go their separate ways. Emma has since found love with Saturday Night Live Director Dave McCary, and the couple now share a daughter named Louise Jean. Despite Emma and her former Spider-Man co-star parting ways years ago, it's reported that they "still have a lot of love for one another". A source shared with Us Weekly: "They still have a lot of love for one another and they are on good terms with each other and remain close. It just wasn't working." Their amicable split was evident when Andrew gave Emma a standing ovation as she won the Oscar for Best Actress for her role in La La Land, showcasing there were no hard feelings. Rita Ora Towards the end of 2018, Rita and Andrew sparked romance rumours when they were seen walking hand-in-hand in London. A source told The Sun newspaper that Rita was overjoyed with how their relationship was progressing, saying: "Things have started to heat up, and she says what they have is the real deal. It is still very early days, but they like each other and are seeing what happens." However, just a few months later, the Take Me Anywhere singer reportedly suffered heartbreak when Andrew ended the relationship due to the intensity of her public lifestyle. Another source disclosed to The Sun: "Rita is cut up about the whole situation. Andrew split up with her recently and it's been hard going as they had spent a lot of time together. "They spent Christmas together and she thought things were going well between them. Rita had tried to do that and had kept their romance off social media but things didn't work out." The same source added: "She is currently on tour in Australia and is using it to distract herself from the whole situation." Monica Barbaro Meanwhile, heartthrob Andrew has been linked with rising star Monica Barbaro, celebrated for her Oscar-nominated performance as Joan Baez in A Complete Unknown, where she shone alongside Timothée Chalamet. The new couple reportedly turned heads while shopping hand-in-hand, dressed in coordinated outfits in Kyoto, Japan, and were later seen at the post-celebration of the prestigious 97th Academy Awards. Despite these appearances, they've yet to officially confirm their relationship. Still, a source claimed to People! that Andrew and Monica are indeed an item, albeit discreetly. The source stated: "They've been really lowkey and have been spending time together quietly." Who Do You Think You Are? airs on BBC One tonight at 9pm.

Andrew Garfield's Spider-Man might swing back into Marvel. But it would be 'stranger' than what fans expect
Andrew Garfield has once again addressed the possibility of reprising his role as Spider-Man, emphasizing that any potential return would have to be 'very weird.' Speaking at the Middle East Film & Comic Con, the actor stated that he would only consider revisiting the character under conditions that allow for a unique and creatively offbeat direction. His comments have reignited fan interest, especially after his surprise appearance alongside Tobey Maguire and Tom Holland in 2021's Spider-Man: No Way Home. Garfield expressed a clear preference for creative freedom in any future projects. He referenced the animated Spider-Verse films, which are known for their experimental style and multiversal storytelling. 'It would have to be very weird. I would like to do something very strange. Something very unique, and offbeat and surprising, kind of like the creative freedom they have with the animated Spider-Verse movies,' he said.

Garfield's portrayal of Spider-Man began in The Amazing Spider-Man (2012) and continued in the 2014 sequel. Although both films performed well at the box office, plans for a third installment were scrapped after a new agreement between Sony and Marvel led to Tom Holland taking over the role in Spider-Man: Homecoming (2017). Reflecting on that period in an interview with Esquire, Garfield revealed he felt 'left dangling' when his time as Spider-Man ended abruptly following the second film's underperformance. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like The Most Remarkable Oscar Outfits Ever Interesticle Undo Despite his initial departure, Garfield's return in No Way Home was met with enthusiasm. Rumors had circulated before the film's release, but the actor consistently denied involvement to preserve the film's surprises. His reappearance, alongside Tobey Maguire, played a major role in the movie's global success. The Future of Spider-Man: Holland Leads, Garfield Speculated With speculation ongoing, Garfield has not confirmed any involvement in future live-action or animated projects. However, his remarks have led fans to hope for another appearance — potentially in a multiverse narrative, where various versions of Spider-Man can coexist. Meanwhile, Tom Holland is set to reprise his role in the upcoming Spider-Man: Brand New Day. Sony officially announced the film at CinemaCon, revealing a July 31, 2026, release date. Directed by Destin Daniel Cretton, the movie draws inspiration from a 2008 comic storyline in which Peter Parker's identity is erased from public memory — a development that aligns with the ending of No Way Home. Erik Sommers and Chris McKenna, the writers of No Way Home, return to write this next installment. While Garfield has ruled out involvement in Holland's next chapter, fan theories persist, particularly around a possible cameo. Some fans also speculate about his appearance in Beyond the Spider-Verse, though the film's uncertain release date makes any connection purely theoretical for now. Despite not completing a trilogy, Garfield's version of Spider-Man remains beloved by many. His thoughtful and emotionally resonant performance has only grown in appreciation over time. Speaking on The A24 Podcast, Garfield discussed his initial reluctance with fame and the pressure of portraying a cultural icon. 'I know I'm not ready for this level of scrutiny,' he said, adding that he feared losing his sense of self during the peak of his Spider-Man years. With his renewed openness to return under the right conditions, Garfield has left the door ajar. Whether through a live-action film, an animated multiverse tale, or an entirely new format, the possibility of seeing his Spider-Man again remains an exciting, if uncertain, prospect for fans worldwide.
