New York, NY – With Megan 2.0 officially making its debut in theaters today, film fans are flocking to experience the next evolution of the AI thriller. But earlier this week, a select crowd got an early taste of the future; not just on screen but at the premiere event itself.
Held in NYC, the exclusive red carpet affair brought the eerie charm of Megan to life with bold visuals, immersive production and one very memorable surprise: a robotic bartender that served up custom cocktails with style and precision.
The event perfectly mirrored the film’s themes of artificial intelligence and blurred human boundaries. That connection came to life through MixMaster II, a robotic mixologist provided by TLC Creative. From the moment it powered on, the robot captivated guests with its smooth movements, expert pours and almost-human energy.
“I’ve seen robots in tech demos, but never at a movie premiere serving drinks like a pro,” said one film executive. “It felt like we stepped into the movie universe.”
Two signature cocktails were created for the occasion:
- M3GAN’s Punch – bold, flavorful and as unpredictable as the AI star of the show.
- Slaying Summer – a lighter, tropical favorite that became an instant hit among partygoers.
Guests joked that MixMaster II seemed to be enjoying the night just as much as they were and may have even wanted to join the screening. “It kept facing the theater entrance like it was hoping someone would invite it in,” one attendee laughed.
Adding to the evening’s flair was Captain Morgan, who brought their own twist with customized “Captain Megan” branding on select bottles. The clever crossover between brand and blockbuster got guests talking and sipping.
“The branded bottles were genius,” said a well-known social media personality. “I’ve already posted mine. Everyone wants one.”
“Having MixMaster II on the red carpet truly elevated the experience,” added a TLC Creative spokesperson. “The Megan franchise is known for blurring the line between humanity and robotics so it was only fitting that we brought a real robot into the celebration.”
Now that Megan 2.0 is officially released, one thing is certain: the future of storytelling isn’t just on the big screen, it’s all around us and sometimes, it’s pouring your drink.
