Google has invested $75 million in independent film and television studio A24 through a strategic partnership to develop artificial intelligence-powered filmmaking tools, the companies announced today. The deal aims to integrate AI technologies into Hollywood production workflows, leveraging Google’s AI research division, DeepMind, to innovate film creation processes.

The partnership between A24 and Google’s DeepMind will focus on creating new AI-driven technologies tailored for the filmmaking industry. This collaboration marks a significant step as Google backs A24 with a substantial investment to explore AI applications in content production. The deal was confirmed in a joint announcement by both companies on June 23, 2026.

This investment highlights the growing role of AI in the entertainment sector, where studios are increasingly adopting machine learning to streamline production and enhance creative capabilities. Comparable moves include other tech giants investing in media to harness AI’s potential.

A24’s partnership with Google and the $75 million investment represent one of the largest AI-focused collaborations in Hollywood to date. The companies plan to develop and deploy AI tools that could transform filmmaking, with initial projects expected to roll out in the next year, according to the joint statement.
