Eli Roth admits 'Ice Cream Man' contains AI-generated shots two days before release

Eli Roth said on 5 August that 'Ice Cream Man' includes AI-generated shots, retracting earlier denials and calling his prior statements a misspeak, per Variety and Deadline. The disclosure landed one day after Variety's review and two days before the film's 7 August wide release through Iconic Events Releasing — the inaugural title from Roth's company, The Horror Section.
