Watch the final trailer for Gareth Edwards’s action-adventure “The Creator”, out today in theaters

Gareth Edwards cited as sources for inspiration for his new work The Creator (2023) essential titles such as Apocalypse Now (1979), Blade Runner (1982), Akira (1988), Rain Man (1988), E.T. the Extra-Terrestrial (1982) and Paper Moon (1973). With those references, one can expect a visually astonishing film with a deep meaning and an intense plot.

In The Creator (2023), amid a future war between the human race and the forces of artificial intelligence, Joshua, a hardened ex-special forces agent grieving the disappearance of his wife, is recruited to hunt down and kill the Creator, the elusive architect of advanced AI who has developed a mysterious weapon with the power to end the war-and mankind itself. Against the backdrop of a war between humans and machines, the former soldier finds the secret weapon, a robot in the form of a young child.

Gareth Edwards is known for being responsible for Monsters (2010), Godzilla (2014), and Rogue One: A Star Wars Story (2016), and is producing, directing, and is the co-writer of the movie. Chris Weitz, who already worked with Edwards in Rogue One: A Star Wars Story (2016) and has also been behind The Golden Compass (2007) and About a Boy (2002), is the co-writer of The Creator (2023).

John David Washington, Gemma Chan, Ken Watanabe, Sturgill Simpson, Madeleine Yuna Voyles, Allison Janney, Ralph Ineson, Mackenzie Lansing, and Marc Menchaca form the main cast.
