With Andrew Garfield as Sam Altman and Yura Borisov as co-founder Ilya Sutskever, the film promises a mix of high-stakes tech drama and some comic relief—especially with Barinholtz's take on Musk.
It's written by Simon Rich and continues Guadagnino's streak of buzzy collaborations with Amazon MGM.
If you're into tech shakeups or just want to see how Hollywood spins Silicon Valley drama, this is one to watch out for.
