Pascal Fights AI's Grip on Art
15 Nov
Summary
- Filmmakers champion human creativity against AI's rise.
- Pascal highlights the pure love and hope in filmmaking.
- Gilroy advocates voting against AI's dominance.
Tony Gilroy and Pedro Pascal are highlighting the irreplaceable humanity of art as their film 'Behemoth!' prepares for its premiere. The duo discussed the movie's theme of a "fight for humanity" and questioned whether artificial intelligence can truly substitute the "incredibly humanizing element of movies."
Pascual described the filming experience as injecting him with hope, noting a "purity of love in the work" from all departments. He believes this push for authentic storytelling reflects a broader desire for human connection and shared experiences.
Gilroy observed a natural resistance to "the robot takeover" in creative industries. He expressed uncertainty about the future but felt "people want humans," suggesting a resurgence of organic artistry. He humorously suggested "blowing up the AI centers at the voting box."
'Behemoth!', written and directed by Gilroy, stars Pascal as a cellist returning to Los Angeles to compose film scores. The Searchlight Pictures film, premiering December 4th in theaters, also features Olivia Wilde and Will Arnett.
