For movies, the best thing to happen last week was documentarian Morgan Neville’s flip response to The New Yorker’s query about his having covertly used artificial intelligence to voice some of Anthony Bourdain’s lines in the film Roadrunner.

That gives the documentary a per theater average of $2,050 and also sets an opening weekend record for director Morgan Neville, who has previously released critically acclaimed documentaries like “20 Feet From Stardom” and “Won’t You Be My Neighbor?” “Roadrunner” was similarly praised by critics, earning a 95% Rotten Tomatoes score. But it’s not too much of a surprise that this is a new record for Neville, because “Roadrunner” is being released in a market that is far different than the one his past work entered.

Arthouse bounced higher this weekend as Morgan Neville’s Roadrunner: A Film About Anthony Bourdain hit $1.9 million — the strongest specialty opening this year and the best yet for Neville (20 Feet From Stardom, Won’t You Be My Neighbor?) His documentary is No. 8 at the U.S. box office.

Roadrunner: A Film About Anthony Bourdain, which is out now in the US, uses A.I. to recreate Bourdain’s voice in the feature.Despite filmmaker Morgan Neville confirming with Variety earlier this week that any wishes by his team to use deepfake technology were granted by Bourdain’s estate and family, Busia has refuted the claim.

The revelation that a documentary filmmaker used voice-cloning software to make the late chef Anthony Bourdain say words he never spoke has drawn criticism amid ethical concerns about use of the powerful technology.

In the long, storied history of TV hosts, Anthony Bourdain is an iconic figure, as he basically redefined the idea of what a celebrity chef could be and what a travel series should look and sound like. Of course, that all came to a tragic end in 2018, after Bourdain died by suicide.

The world has gotten smaller as the internet age has given people greater access to each other than ever before. As various food cultures started to get more exposure within the United States, one of the country’s best cultural ambassadors was the late Anthony Bourdain.

A new documentary about Anthony Bourdain is being labelled “grotesque” and “upsetting” for using AI technology to recreate the voice of the late celebrity chef. 

The New Yorker published Thursday, documentarian Morgan Neville explained his decision to use AI to recreate the voice of the late Bourdain. Writer Helen Rosner asked Neville “how on Earth” he nabbed a recording of Bourdain reading a particularly sensitive email aloud.
