I’m appalled and saddened to hear that Tilly Norwood’s brief but dazzling career has abruptly ended due to an unforeseen tragedy.

After six long days of existence, the AI actress heralded as the “future of cinema” and “the first digital star who doesn’t complain about contracts” has been officially pronounced forgotten.

Sources close to the project report that Tilly’s untimely demise was caused by a catastrophic case of public indifference. Despite a major PR campaign, fake behind-the-scenes leaks, and carefully orchestrated influencer endorsements, audiences grew weary of her flawless cheekbones and nonexistent personality faster than you can scroll past an ad.

The production studio has confirmed that they will not attempt a reboot, citing “a lack of human interest.”

Tilly leaves behind no filmography, no legacy, and no grieving fans - only a press kit, a derelict Instagram account with disabled comment section, and a cautionary tale about believing your own marketing.

May she rest in perpetual beta.

”Did you ever know that you’re my hero?…”

Lack of human interest? Why not just create AI fans?

Valid comment

She didn't even follow the true Hollywood story of failing to even get an spot in an advertisement then into the softcore porn industry just to pay rent until something else comes through.

Okay, but has “development” really stopped, or is this just one person’s opinion?

Oh they'll be back. Too much potential money in a star that only says what they want, will never age and has no limits on what she will do.

Imagine what Disney could do with this: an infinite series of MCU/Star Wars movies where the actors don't get old.

Pretty sure it's just their opinion.

So young... love to everyone effected by this tragedy
