Ben Affleck Says Netflix Thriller Used AI in Production

Ben Affleck has revealed that his upcoming Netflix political thriller incorporated artificial intelligence across many aspects of its production. The actor and filmmaker made the comments in a conversation with Bloomberg's Lucas Shaw.

Affleck did not specify which stages of production relied on AI, but his remarks place one of Netflix's star-driven projects at the center of an industry debate over how the technology is being used behind the camera.

The disclosure is notable given Affleck's dual role as a leading actor and director, and it adds to a growing list of productions where AI tools have become part of the workflow. Netflix has not commented publicly on the extent of AI's use in the film.

Details about the thriller's plot, cast, and release date remain under wraps. Comingsoon.net will update this story as more information becomes available.
