Mads Mikkelsen is headed to space with his AI companion, played by Diane Kruger, in the sci-fi survival thriller Ami. Production is currently underway in Spain.

The survival thriller follows an astronaut (Mads Mikkelsen) who crash-lands on an uncharted planet after a catastrophic accident, with only his Quantum AI companion Ami (Kruger) left to aid in his escape. As he navigates an alien landscape and a battle for survival, he is forced to confront the fragility of memory, the isolation of space, and the resilience of the human spirit.

Fernando Szurman makes his feature debut with Ami, directing from a screenplay by John Wesley Norton and Ezequiel Martinez Jr.

“Ami is exactly the kind of daring, character-driven genre film that reflects Capstone’s commitment to globally resonant storytelling,” said producer Christian Mercuri, CEO of Capstone. “It’s a rare combination of emotional intimacy and cinematic scale, brought to life by a world-class creative team. With Fernando’s distinctive vision and a cast of extraordinary talent, this project exemplifies the elevated, high-concept filmmaking we champion.”

“What excited me about Ami was the opportunity to tell a profoundly human story through a genre that allows for both scope and intimacy,” added Szurman. “I want to push the boundaries of sci-fi storytelling while grounding it in emotional truth. We’re not just making a survival film; we’re inviting audiences into a deeply personal space odyssey.”
