Ex Machina: Exclusive TV Spot – ‘Lies’

 

Alex Garland has already made his mark as the award-winning writing of genre films like 28 Days Later…Sunshine and Dredd. Now he’s making his directorial debut with the acclaimed new sci-fi thriller Ex Machina, in which future Star Wars: Episode VII stars Oscar Isaac and Domhnall Gleeson play two men who are trying to determine if a sophisticated robot, played by Alicia Vikander (Seventh Son), has achieved true artificial intelligence.

It’s the film that rocked SXSW 2015, and it’s about to come to a theater near you, so CraveOnline is proud to present this exclusive new TV spot: Lies.

Ex Machina arrives in theaters on April 10, 2015.

Alex Garland, writer of 28 Days Later and Sunshine, makes his directorial debut with the stylish and cerebral thriller, EX MACHINA. Caleb Smith (Domhnall Gleeson), a programmer at an internet-search giant, wins a competition to spend a week at the private mountain estate of the company’s brilliant and reclusive CEO, Nathan Bateman (Oscar Isaac).

Upon his arrival, Caleb learns that Nathan has chosen him to be the human component in a Turing Test—charging him with evaluating the capabilities, and ultimately the consciousness, of Nathan’s latest experiment in artificial intelligence. That experiment is Ava (Alicia Vikander), a breathtaking A.I. whose emotional intelligence proves more sophisticated––and more deceptive––than the two men could have imagined.
