Guillermo del Toro, the Oscar-winning director, has promised that the upcoming 3D re-release of his 2006 film “Pan’s Labyrinth” will use no artificial intelligence. In a statement, del Toro emphasized the importance of preserving the original artistry. “What we’re protecting is the beauty and the redeeming power of art,” he said. The director has been vocal about his opposition to AI in filmmaking, arguing that it undermines human creativity. The re-release will be a manual conversion, relying on traditional techniques. Del Toro’s commitment comes amid growing debate in Hollywood over AI’s role in film production and restoration. “Pan’s Labyrinth,” a dark fantasy set in post-Civil War Spain, won three Academy Awards. The 3D version is expected to bring a new depth to its visual storytelling without compromising its handmade aesthetic. Fans have praised del Toro’s stance, viewing it as a defense of authentic cinema. The release date has not been announced.
