Nearly 5 years after first being announced, Netflix's ambitious live-action Assassin's Creed television series is finally greenlit!
Netflix's new drama Untamed, which stars several actors who've appeared in Marvel movies, is a massive hit on the streaming service.
Surprisingly, Sarandos said the company already did it, on an Argentinian sci-fi show called El Eternauta, a graphic-novel adaptation known as The Eternaut in English-speaking markets. For a scene showing a building collapsing in Buenos Aires, Netflix's tech team worked with the filmmakers to generate AI footage that was used as final footage.
The weekend brings a fresh wave of entertainment. Superman dominates the box office. Netflix, Amazon Prime Video, and others offer new series and movies. 'The Actor' streams on Hulu. 'The Summer I Turned Pretty' returns on Amazon.
Netflix admitted to using generative AI in one of its TV shows, but only after it became widely popular - here's why that's a problem.
During a call with investors yesterday, Netflix co-CEO Ted Sarandos revealed that Netflix's Argentine show The Eternaut, which premiered in April, is "the very first GenAI final footage to appear on screen in a Netflix, Inc. original series or film.” Sarandos further explained, per a transcript of the call, saying:
In terms of plot, all we have so far is a statement from Tudum which reads: " Assassin’s Creed is a high-octane thriller centered on the secret war between two shadowy factions — one set on determining mankind’s future through control and manipulation, while the other fights to preserve free will."
Netflix’s Co-CEO just revealed many of the biggest new shows and movies the company has planned for the rest of this year and into 2026.
