Schrader plans to replace human actors with AI-generated performances

Director Paul Schrader told The Hollywood Reporter that he is moving forward with a film built entirely from AI performances, a project previously known as Three Guns At Dawn. The film, originally set with Antoine Fuqua attached, has been reconfigured to use AI-generated human prototypes instead of named actors. Schrader has been vocal about embracing AI in filmmaking, arguing that jobs lost to the technology cannot be stopped.
