Meta, formerly Facebook, has partnered with Blumhouse Productions to test its generative AI video model, Movie Gen, which creates realistic video and audio clips from user prompts. Notable filmmakers, including Casey Affleck and Aneesh Chaganty, will use the tool in short films.

The tool is expected to be publicly available next year.
