Ye Teases AI-Assisted ‘Vultures’ Movie: Watch the Spooky Trailer

Ye — formerly Kanye West — has made cameos in films before, but he’s in the director’s chair now. West teased the first edition of his Vultures The Movie with the trailer arriving on Friday (Jan. 10).

Yeezy posted the one-minute black-and-white clip to Instagram, which appears to be completely AI-driven. “Thrilling,” “Chilling,” “Sensoramic” and “Vulgar” are a few of the descriptors blasted across the screen throughout the ominous visual.

Soundtracked by The Blues Brothers theme song, the only sign of rappers appearing in the clip looks to be AI versions of Ye and Ty Dolla $ign as well as Vultures collaborators such as Kodak Black, Rich The Kid and Playboi Carti, who are firing guns.

There isn’t a release date for the Vultures film, but it should be on the calendar for 2025. Ye has been favoring AI when it comes to his recent music videos as Vultures series cuts “Bomb” and “530” were also black-and-white while following the same storyline lineage as the movie trailer.

After returning to social media earlier this year and recharging with a trip to the Maldives to celebrate his wife Bianca Censori’s 30th birthday, Kanye seems to be gearing up for another busy year. With Vultures The Movie now on the way, he’s also been teasing the release of his upcoming solo album, Bully.

The project will be Ye’s first solo LP since 2021’s Donda. He already dropped off the cover art last year and various snippets have also surfaced on social media. 2024 gave Ye several more wins as he returned to top the Billboard 200 with Vultures and the Grammy-nominated “Carnival” also reached No. 1 on the Billboard Hot 100.
