Brad Pitt Says AI Will Allow Mid-Budget Films to Get Made
Pitt said AI could help lower production costs for films budgeted at $40 million to $90 million, but he warned against replacing actors.
- On Monday, American actor Brad Pitt said artificial intelligence could help mid-budget films costing $40 to $90 million get produced. The 62-year-old Fight Club star called the technology a "very interesting experiment."
- While open to AI as a production tool, Pitt expressed concern about the technology replacing actors. He revealed he has spent two decades requiring contracts to destroy body scans, calling himself a "paranoid Ozark boy."
- After hearing an AI song, Pitt observed it was "pretty damn good" but lacked human nuance. He noted "it had a repetitive nature to it," arguing it cannot replicate a real person's voice.
- Reprising his Oscar-winning role as Cliff Booth, Pitt will star in a film directed by David Fincher after receiving approval from writer Quentin. "Quentin gave me his blessing," Pitt said.
- In the same interview, Pitt spoke openly about sobriety, noting, "I was sober for seven years. And then I got back off the wagon." He added that he now approaches it in a more restrained way.
