My Boyfriend is a Superhero!?

My Boyfriend is a Superhero!?

CHOOSE YOUR PROTAGONIST

My Boyfriend is a Superhero!? is the first film in the history of cinema where the audience chooses the protagonist, given the choice between two Abigails.

“When a billionaire’s secretary uncovers her boss is secretly a vigilante superhero, she is thrust into a high-stakes battle of secret identities, corporate intrigue, and an AI bent on taking control.”

The superhero romcom is the first completely AI 3D animated feature film, with all sound, music, videos, animation and performances machine generated.

An experimental cut of Superhero demonstrates what Jackson calls, The True Line Cut, which posits that a film must represents its artistic process on screen, like “a film made in one single brushstroke”.

The film furthers Jackson’s methodology in AI editing, becoming the first film with agentic AI editing in the production of the film, using autonomous systems to propose and place elements inside the cut. (‘DreadClub: Vampire’s Verdict,’ used LLMs to dictate paper edits.)

Superhero!? is also recognized as the earliest breaching of the live-action threshold in an AI feature film. Approximately fifteen minutes of the film — featuring the Eagle, Chick (Joan), and Mister B (Rogers) — cross into photoreal live action, with machine-generated performances. This breakthrough occurred months before Jackson would build an entire film around the capability with Strings (2026).

Reviews:

Reel Reviews: “Jackson is at the pinnacle of the AI revolution.”

JustForMovieFreaks: “Jackson’s pursuit to redefine how films are made and how viewers participate in their meaning results in a work that is imperfect but forward looking.”

Martin Carr: “Hooroo Jackson’s latest one-man effort, that cost less than the catering on an indie drama, pops with visual flourishes and mimics human emotions pushing AI forward in the process.”

TrendingLA: “In exploring what AI can do for cinema, “My Boyfriend is a Superhero!?” is the ultimate wildcard—the film that dares to ask not just what if, but what now?”

Film Threat: “Jackson’s inspiration for My Boyfriend is a Superhero!? was about more than advancing the medium of AI storytelling. Instead, he wanted to give audiences a meaningful choice by letting them select their protagonist.”

Mike Haberfelner: “The resulting film is just lots of fun, thanks not only to a clever and engaging story but also striking visuals and a certain no-holds-barred attitude to things.”
