woah I hadn't heard of this one, looks like it's not very good tho:

Kings of the Sun is a 1963 DeLuxe Color film directed by J. Lee Thompson for Mirisch Productions set in Mesoamerica at the time of the conquest of Chichen Itza by Hunac Ceel. Location scenes were filmed in Mazatlán and Chichen Itza.[3]

This one actually sounds pretty good:

The Feathered Serpent is a British children's serial[2] costume drama[1] television series made for ITV by Thames Television, set in pre-Columbian Mexico and starring Patrick Troughton as the scheming High Priest Nasca. It is an adventure story[3] about good and evil.[1] Two series were first broadcast in 1976 and 1978.

I wonder if there'll be more stuff like this, rendered with AI.

edit: that 3d rendering of Tenochtitlan is incredible.
