The AI Wes Anderson "Lord of the Rings" Trailer & Cast You Didn't Know You Needed
By JARON PAK
The AI filmmaking site Curious Refuge has made a trailer for “The Whimsical Fellowship,” a “Lord of the Rings” story inspired by the work of director Wes Anderson.
The visuals echo Anderson's style, with scenes reminiscent of The Grand Budapest Hotel, characters like Elves and Dwarves breaking the fourth wall, and every scene exuding warmth.
The trailer involves a compilation of AI-generated images with an AI voice giving a synopsis of the plot. An AI Frodo Baggins also lists everything he’ll need on his journey.
The unique cast includes Timothée Chalamet as Frodo, Bill Murray as Gandalf, Tilda Swinton as Galadriel, and Owen Wilson as a humorous Sauron.
Ending with Tolkien's classic quote, “Not all those who wander are lost,” the AI-made trailer showcases an imaginative union of tech and art.
