Kill The Bedfords Series Pitch Trailer /Osun Group

(Hybrid live action plus generative-AI production)

O-T Fagbenle, Emmy-nominated for The Handmaid’s Tale and familiar to Marvel fans as Rick Mason in Black Widow, teamed with his brother Luti Fagbenle’s London-based Osun Group to develop the comedy-action thriller Kill The Bedfords. 

Osun needed to extend the live action shoot into scenes that would be impossible, or painfully expensive, to film for real. Half the trailer was captured on location, while the other half relied on AI imagery that had to blend so perfectly viewers would never notice the join. To deliver on a tight pitch timeline, O-T brought on AI Artists Arthur Machado and Phil Langer, known for his gen-AI portrait project The Hybrids.

“Kill the Bedfords”.proof of concept trailer is currently out of the public domain, being pitched to the main streamers to secure funding for producing a hybrid TV series mixing live-action, AI and traditional VFX, a perfect use case of AI as an enabler and accelerator of great stories.
