Heart of Stone: Release date, cast and latest news
Gal Gadot stars in this brand new action thriller for Netflix.
New Netflix spy thriller Heart of Stone stars Gal Gadot as Rachel Stone, an operative working for a covert peacekeeping organisation who is secretly embedded within an MI6 team led by Jamie Dornan's Parker.
The peacekeeping organisation, known as The Charter, utilises The Heart, a cutting-edge artificial intelligence, in order to neutralise global threats.
This is the second spy movie this summer to feature AI in a prominent role after Mission: Impossible - Dead Reckoning Part One.
Dornan previously spoke with RadioTimes.com about the role of AI in the film, saying: "The mad thing was, that was like… that wasn't a conversation when we were filming it a year ago, year-and-a-half ago. Of course, there were people having conversations about it, and it was on your radar, but it was very faint on the radar.
"The last few months that has become front page news, the AI and the fear of it, ChatGPT, and it's become a very real conversation. It’s having a massive impact on our industry, obviously. But there's a way bigger, more terrifying global aspect of what's happening there that's truly terrifying."
