Disney held a special screening event of the new 20th Century Studios film, “The Creator”, at TCL Theater in Hollywood last night, which was attended by the film’s director/producer/co-writer Gareth Edwards, and there was a special interactive experience with AI film-themed robots at Hollywood & Highland.  Due to the long-running actor’s strike, the film’s stars weren’t attending the premiere, though Gareth was wearing a T-shirt showing the names of the stars in support of the strike.

“The Creator” is an epic sci-fi action thriller set amidst a future war between the human race and the forces of artificial intelligence, “The Creator” stars John David Washington, Gemma Chan, Ken Watanabe, Sturgill Simpson, Madeleine Yuna Voyles, and Allison Janney. Joshua (Washington), a hardened ex-special forces agent grieving the disappearance of his wife (Chan), is recruited to hunt down and kill the Creator, the elusive architect of advanced AI who has developed a mysterious weapon with the power to end the war…and mankind itself. Joshua and his team of elite operatives journey across enemy lines, into the dark heart of AI-occupied territory, only to discover the world-ending weapon he’s been instructed to destroy is an AI in the form of a young child (Voyles).

Here are some photos from the event:

The film is directed by Gareth Edwards, with a screenplay by Gareth Edwards and Chris Weitz from a story by Gareth Edwards. The producers are Gareth Edwards, Kiri Hart, Jim Spencer, and Arnon Milchan. The executive producers are Yariv Milchan, Michael Schaefer, Natalie Lehmann, Nick Meyer, and Zev Foreman.

“The Creator” opens exclusively in theaters on September 29th, 2023, and we should expect to see the film available on Disney+ in early 2024.
