The film features Andrew Garfield as the OpenAI executive, alongside Monica Barbaro as CTO Mira Murati, Ike Barinholtz as Elon Musk, and Yura Borisov as chief scientist Ilya Sutskever.

Amazon MGM Drops Luca Guadagnino’s Sam Altman Biopic
Amazon MGM has pulled the plug on Artificial, a high-profile drama chronicling the five-day power struggle that saw Sam Altman ousted and then reinstated as CEO of OpenAI. Despite a year of development and a star-studded cast, the studio is now actively shopping the project to other potential distributors.
Industry insiders note the complicated relationship between the parties: Amazon recently committed a $50 billion investment into the AI sector, creating clear friction for a project centered on the internal volatility of one of its key partners. The decision to cut ties with the production marks a sharp pivot for the studio, which had been developing the script for over twelve months before the reversal.
