Huge props to Nic Cage for standing his ground against Amazon's AI demands! Apparently, they wanted him to sign an AI waiver for 'Spider-Noir,' and he flat-out refused, saying he's 'not an AI-friendly actor.' It sounds like he's done with them, which is wild considering Amazon's deep pockets in AI. And get this, 'Spider-Noir' got canceled despite racking up billions of views and 11 Emmy noms – coincidence?

Now he's looking to team up with Gen-Z directors, which is awesome, and he even dropped a bombshell about joining 'True Detective.' Love seeing actors prioritize their craft over corporate tech pushes. What a legend! #culture #film #technology
