The nearly six-minute film was directed by Geoffrey James Clark (Automaton Transfusion) and co-written by Luke Kingma (Cartoons From Tomorrow: A Futuristic Comic Collection). The nearly six-minute film sees Sophia pitch her script forWestworldSeason 3 to Wood in a bar in New York City.
"It's no accident you and I are running to each other like this," Sophia confessed to Wood. "I am a big fan of your showWestworld, and I have a couple of ideas for the next season."
The film first premiered at the Maui Film Festival in Hawaii earlier this year.
"It was an amazing and unique experience directing a film starring a real-life robot because it felt like the first glimpse into an uncanny future, much like we see inWestworld,"saidClark in a statement. "Having someone as talented and willing to have fun like Evan was a dream. And she nailed it."
This is not Sophia's first encounter with a Hollywood star. In 2018, the humanoid robotwenton a romantic date withBrightandSuicide Squadstar Will Smith. Despite the Academy Award-nominated actor's attempts to woo the humanoid robot, Sophia just wants to be friends.
