Début 2026, Woolf+Lapin a conclu un partenariat en production et en représentation avec Citizen Skull, basé à Los Angeles — non pas dans une logique d’expansion, mais dans un souci d’alignement réfléchi. Ce type de rapprochement ne nous est pas étranger. Au fil des années, Woolf+Lapin a su nouer des collaborations structurantes, notamment avec CinéGroupe […]

Director’s Statement: Collectively, we have all become tethered to our phones. They are extensions of us. In an era where information is the most valuable commodity on the planet, our phones know us better than we know ourselves. Social media apps hypnotize us with an endless scroll of beautiful people and posts targeted at us […]

This month’s 2025 edition of Mutek is in full swing. We particularly enjoyed London-based Harry Yeff’s talk on his research regarding creative applications for A.I. and machine learning. He focuses on performance, vocal experiments, and digital installations. He seamlessly gets in there between the human voice and technology, challenging conventional boundaries and promoting human-machine collaboration. […]

He explains a practical approach to using AI tools while maintaining your own voice and the ways he incorporates LLMs into his daily work. We talk about how people will be writing fewer books in the future and […]

We are posting this video because we believe strongly in AI ethically generated content. Back in April, AI production studio Asteria announced its first live-action feature, Uncanny Valley, which will also mark the directorial debut of studio co-founder Natasha Lyonne (Poker Face, Russian Doll).

Director Daniel Duranleau’s WINKIE is a clear stand out at Fantasia so far. After discovering a young orphaned girl, a caring monster takes it upon himself to raise the child and make sure she stays out of harm’s way by any means necessary. It is one of the best shorts we’ve seen in a long […]

On Shaping the Next Chapter of Talent Woolf+Lapin was founded on a belief: the most powerful stories come from the margins, not the center. From our home base in Montréal, we’ve built a talent boutique that refuses to follow industry convention. We seek out voices that defy genre, challenge markets, and make culture—not just content.

Une fois de plus. La relève nous tient profondément à cœur. En témoignent les projets récents que nous accompagnons, comme la réalisation d’Éloïse Lavictoire. Ca nous permet de suivre les nouveaux sons de Komedza : « ((WaYeï)) » est un morceau dans lequel je lève le voile sur une douleur sourde qui m’accompagne depuis toujours: […]

Woolf+Lapin is not a service company. We are not chasing trends. We are not replicating format. We are not afraid of the slow burn. We live for tension. For the uneasy. For the projects that don’t fit cleanly on a slate. We come from the world of story, not sales. And we still believe that […]

At Cannes this year, both Fatih Akin and Hideo Kojima expressed cautious optimism about AI’s role in storytelling. After expressing mutual admiration and talking about their collaborations they expressed their views on AI. It’s not something to fear, but a tool—one that must be understood, integrated, and ultimately shaped to serve narrative rather than replace […]

  After a series of interviews and plugging in all of his writings, we were able to generate a version of data scientist Chris Mattman who is the inaugural Chief Data and AI Officer (CDAIO) at the University of California Los Angeles (UCLA). Before UCLA, Mattmann was the Division Manager of the Artificial Intelligence, Analytics and […]
