AGC International has added the AI-generated sci-fi film Gods Don't Give Gifts to its distribution slate and will introduce the project to buyers at the American Film Market, according to Deadline. The film is described as one of the first fully AI-generated movies to receive a theatrical release.

The trailer launched on October 6 and has since passed 15 million views. According to London, the film took more than 10 months of work across writers, artists, animators, voice actors, musicians and a traditional post-production crew. Saatchi said FYC screenings with top directors, animators and writers have already begun, and producers are pushing an awards campaign aimed at the Academy's animation category.
