Andrew Garfield is spotted in San Francisco filming scenes for his latest drama, Artificial<\/p><\/div>\n<\/div>\n

The real-life story behind Artificial\u00a0centers on the controversial 2023 firing and rehiring of OpenAI CEO Sam Altman<\/a>.\u00a0<\/p>\n

According to IMDb, the film \u201cfollows the confusing firing and rehiring cycle with Sam Altman at OpenAI, where the board gained control of the company and removed him, yet he came back in a convoluted, breaking news cycle that broke the internet.\u201d<\/p>\n

Garfield, clean-shaven and grinning on set, drew immediate attention on Instagram, where fans debated what might have caused his seemingly altered appearance.<\/p>\n

One person wrote: \u201cThey did something real freaky to his face.\u201d A second critic added: \u201cDid he get bad botox?\u201d\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n

Another user speculated: \u201cPeople are saying it\u2019s because he shaved, but no. He looks very pale, like he has makeup on? And then a facelift, maybe?\u00a0<\/strong>But that\u2019s insane if he did that. It\u2019s giving uncanny valley, and I feel bad judging, but there is SOMETHING not right. We\u2019ve all taken bad photos, so I\u2019m praying that\u2019s all it is.\u201d<\/p>\n

Still, other fans were thrilled by the new look. Referring to his time as Spiderman (2012\u20132021), one user gushed: \u201cCutieee spidey.\u201d Another said: \u201cMy forever first love.\u201d A third added: \u201cHe\u2019s still a baby, my baby.\u201d<\/p>\n

The film is written by\u00a0Simon Rich<\/strong>, 41, and directed by Guadagnino, 53, with a producing team that includes David Heyman, Jeffrey Clifford<\/strong>, and Jennifer Fox<\/strong>. Principal photography began in July at San Francisco\u2019s Dolores Park.<\/p>\n

While a release date has not yet been announced, the project has already attracted major buzz, thanks in part to Garfield\u2019s transformation and real-life romance with co-star Monica Barbaro.<\/a><\/p>\n
