They thought having an AI-generated character, a sidekick called Bit, might be a “buzzy marketing strategy”.

Please, please be a sidekick for Leto's character. Please Disney, just do it. You don't even need to have Leto react to it, just have it bouncing around and making lame jokes!

Please, please, I want memes!
