Tilly Norwood to Lead New Movie ‘Misaligned,’ Marking Feature Debut for AI ‘Actor’
Tilly Norwood, the AI “actor” who sparked a frenzy of anger in Hollywood and across the wider industry in late 2025, is set to front her first feature film.
“Misaligned,” announced by Particle 6, the AI-focussed studio behind Norwood, is described as a comedy-drama telling a “coming-of-age story infused with existential AI chaos.” Set inside the so-called “Tillyverse,” a surreal digital world located somewhere up in the Cloud, the film will follow Tilly, an AI being with no real body, no childhood and no lived experience of her own … only access to everyone else’s. Things spiral when a seductive rogue bot from the dark web convinces her to abandon her guardrails and begin developing desires, impulses and ambitions, making her more human.
The film marks the full-length AI feature film from Particle 6, which insists it is being designed as a hybrid production using traditional film and TV professionals — including directors, writers and editors — working alongside AI specialists. It says AI training and mentorship will be built into the production itself.
