It looks like Blumhouse’sM3GANis getting an older, more risque, sister as the studio announces another movie in the AI doll universe.
The movie, which sounds like a mash-up ofA24’sEx Machinaand Netflix’s Black Mirror, follows a man who “acquires an Artificially Intelligent android to cope with the loss of his recently deceased wife,” as per the film’s synopsis. “In an attempt to create a truly sentient partner, he inadvertently turns a harmless lovebot into a deadly soulmate.”
In a statement, Dolan described the film as an exploration of “relationships and loneliness,” adding, “Despite technological advances, there are enduring human truths we cannot escape, and I am looking forward to delving into those depths.” The story is by Dolan, Rafael Jordan, Ingrid Bisu, and horror legend James Wan. An official cast list has not been revealed at this time.
