For the first time ever in film history, a completely computer-generated character will act alongside real-life actors and it's going to happen in Al Pacino's ('Any Given Sunday', 'The Insider') next movie. The cyber character, Simone, will be Pacino's leading lady in the new movie by writer-director Andrew Niccol ('The Truman Show').

The story is about Simone, an aspiring actress who experiences overnight success and Pacino as her Hollywood film producer. Niccol said he decided to use computer graphics for Simone's part after failing to find the right actress for her role. The movie will begin shooting in September.

Al Pacino is virtually a legend in Malaysia for his roles in films like 'The Godfather' and 'Heat'.
