William is a 2019 American adventure drama film written by Tim Disney and J.T. Allen, directed by Disney and starring Will Brittain.
Two biologists remotely clone a living Neanderthal they name William as a way to study the organic and intelligence differences between Neanderthals and Homo sapiens. The "parents" soon divorce due to differences of opinion on whether to raise William as a normal person or as a lab rat. When William turns 18, he begins to face harsh reality as some bully him and treat him with derision. He saves a female friend who desperately tries to help him avoid joining his ancestors, who had been wiped out 40,000 years before by the very species that raised him.
