The Guardian view on Tilly Norwood: she’s not art, she’s data | Editorial

Fri, 03 Oct 2025 16:47:23 +0000

The first 100% AI actor is a cause for alarm. But the human connection of great acting can never be replaced

The threat to human creativity from technology took another step closer this week with the appearance of Tilly Norwood, the first 100% AI-generated actor. Unsurprisingly, her unveiling at the Zurich film festival in a comic sketch called AI Commissioner caused an outcry. Emily Blunt described the film as “terrifying” and the actors’ union Sag-Aftra condemned it as “jeopardising performer livelihoods and devaluing human artistry”.

There is much that is problematic about Norwood, not least the message her “girl-next-door vibe” sends to young women. But the more serious point is that her face has been made from those of real actors without their knowledge or consent. Her lighthearted debut masks the fact that she is part of a new model of media production that rides roughshod over longstanding norms and laws governing artists and their work.

Hollywood has been anticipating Norwood’s arrival for some time. Films such as the 2002 sci-fi Simone, about a film director who creates the perfect actress on a computer, and 2013’s The Congress, in which an ageing star is digitally scanned by her studio, were remarkably prescient. Last year’s body horror The Substance, starring Demi Moore as a waning celebrity who spawns a younger clone, similarly satirised the industry’s obsession with youth and beauty. Now, Victor Frankenstein-like, the film world is staring the “perfect actress” in the face.

‘Shell’ Review: Elisabeth Moss and Kate Hudson Aren’t Quite Camp in This Clumsy Sci-Fi Satire

Shell review – Elisabeth Moss gets Substance-d by Kate Hudson in schlocky curio

Fri, 03 Oct 2025 16:06:27 +0000

Max Minghella directs an incredibly silly yet frustratingly un-fun LA-set horror about an actor trying to look beautiful

There are scenes in dumped schlock horror Shell that would make it sound like a giddy five-wines-in camp classic if they were described in isolation. There’s the bit where Kate Hudson’s vampy wellness CEO makes Elisabeth Moss masturbate with a giant vibrator while making her stare in the mirror. There’s a cold open starring ex-Showgirl Elizabeth Berkley tearfully hacking off shells that have grown on her skin before getting slaughtered by a masked killer. There’s Hudson serving an elegant dinner of her discarded skin to enthused guests. And then there’s Kaia Gerber turning into a giant lobster …

If only Shell was as outrageously fun as that all makes it sound, but there’s something oddly flat about it, actor-turned-director Max Minghella struggling to bring the luridly indulgent pleasures that something as silly as this so obviously needs. It’s never quite obvious what or why Shell is and who it might be for, a cheaply made lark with very little to offer those who weren’t involved in the production, feeling even less necessary given its unfortunate resemblance to The Substance. Both focus on an LA actor struggling to get the attention and work she thinks she deserves in a cruel industry, unfairly critiqued for her looks who is then seduced by a game-changing procedure that provides instant rewards but has horrifying side effects.
