"We're starting with Orson Welles because he is the greatest storyteller of the last 200 years So many people are rightly skeptical of AI's impact on cinema but we hope that this gives people a sense of a positive contribution that AI can make for storytelling."
"RKO absolutely betrayed me by re-editing The Magnificent Ambersons' final section and shooting a new ending."
Showrunner, operated by interactive AI film studio Fable, plans to use AI tools to recreate the 43 minutes removed from Orson Welles' 1942 film The Magnificent Ambersons. The project reportedly involves filmmaker Brian Rose and VFX expert Tom Clive. Welles began the film as an adaptation of Booth Tarkington's novel after previously adapting it for radio in 1939. Studio RKO removed and destroyed footage after poor test screenings, and Welles relinquished final-cut rights while working in Brazil on It's All True. Master negatives of the excised footage were destroyed, and several restoration and search efforts continue, including a search for a lost working print.
