Nicolas Cage says he may not work with Prime Video again over AI

Nicolas Cage says he may not work with Prime Video again after starring in its series Spider-Noir.

The series has been cancelled, but Cage said his concern is the platform’s use of artificial intelligence in production, not the cancellation.

He said he did not sign a waiver allowing AI to be used on Spider-Noir.

Cage described himself as not being in favour of AI for acting work.

He said he wants to work with younger filmmakers who make their projects by hand.

The use of generative AI in creative work is a wider debate in Hollywood, with some filmmakers open to the technology and others opposed.

Cage did not say what project he might work on next.

What people are saying

Amazon is a company very favorable to AI [and] I am not a pro-AI actor.

I did not sign the release authorizing the use of AI on Spider-Noir.
Nicolas Cageactorvia Allociné
I therefore need to get closer to these young directors of Generation Z who [...] do everything by hand, from A to Z.
Nicolas Cageactorvia Allociné
I want to fit into that dynamic.
