AI-Assisted Feature Sanxingdui: Future Memories Hits Chinese Cinemas
Bona Film Group's 100-minute feature Sanxingdui: Future Memories opened nationwide in Chinese cinemas on October 23, with every character portrayed as a newly designed digital figure rather than a real actor. TMTPost reported that the production used more than 1.2 million generated images for roughly 2,000 shots, with Shengshu Technology's Vidu listed as lead technical support and substantial manual work required to maintain consistency. The production team described it as China's first AI-assisted feature to receive a public-screening permit and open commercially, but the supplied report provides no independent verification of that firstness claim.
The release puts generative-video production into a real commercial cinema workflow, while its reported costs, labor requirements, box office and need for manual quality control provide a concrete case study for AI-assisted filmmaking.
10月下旬，北京党史馆中影影城CINITY巨幕厅的首映礼上，出现了一个中国电影史上从未有过的画面：主创团队站在台上，台下坐着观众、媒体、影评人，唯独没有“演员”。
“第一次参加没有演员的首映，有点尴尬。”著名影评人谭飞在台下半开玩笑地说出这句。
站在台上的，是博纳影业行政总裁蒋德富，知名制片人、博纳影业AIGMS制作中心负责人曲吉小江。他们身后大银幕上播放的，是这部名为《三星堆：未来往事》的100分钟院线长片。
这是国内第一部拿到公映许可证，全程依托AI参与制作，在商业院线正式公映的电影长片。片中所有人物都是全新设计的数字形象，没有借用任何一位真人演员。
