The drama, titled Artificial, – which will see Andrew Garfield starring as the controversial tech mogul – had been dramatically dropped by original distributor Amazon Prime Video earlier in the year before being picked up by NEON.
The Gala screening will take place on Sunday 11 October, less than a week after the film's world premiere at the New York Film Festival on Monday 5 October, with talent expected to be in attendance.
Alongside Garfield, the starry cast for the film also includes Anora breakout Yura Borisov, A Complete Unknown star Monica Barbaro and Licorice Pizza's Cooper Hoffman.
The script for the film was penned by novelist and screenwriter Simon Rich, whose only previous feature film credit was the 2020 comedy An American Pickle.
The official synopsis teases: "Artificial chronicles the incredibly consequential days leading up to the sudden firing and reinstatement of Sam Altman as CEO of OpenAI, as the fate of who gets to control the technology at the centre of an AI arms race hangs in the balance."
An Amazon spokesperson did not go into specific reasons, but said: "We have the utmost respect and admiration for Luca Guadagnino as an award-winning filmmaker – not to mention a longstanding relationship that we hope to continue.
