you can 'resurrect' one deceased actor with A.I...

[zombie no.one]

what new film do you make them star in? can be anything at all

I'd bring back Leslie Nielssen, for a new NAKED GUN sequel... that was the first thing that sprang to mind!


(I believe this stuff is actually do-able now, with deepfakes etc. but I'm not entirely comfortable with it... could they really get all the nuances and small stuff right? still a fun idea to consider though)

Hmm, unfortunately, I'd need to bring back two actors for another Hammer Dracula movie. I'd only be for it if it was for a role an actor had agreed to do before he'd (or she'd) died.

You know, I remember in the early '00s reading a story fantasizing about just this. It also was possible in the story to substitute any actor into any movie. We're very close to that if not already there, and no amount of legislation is going to stop it. Genie/bottle/gone.

John Wayne getting scalped would be cool!

yes good point, in fact I'd need to bring back George Kennedy as well.
plus of course they'd have to ask OJ if he'd like to come out of disgraced retirement and take another stab at it.....................

it is disconcerting. the blending of reality and fiction has never seemed more apparent

Elvis Presley

to star in FRIDAY 13TH: PART 13, as Jason Voorhees

you will know it's Elvis because of the hip swivel after each kill... A.I can do that.

You may be on to something... can we get AI to assist w/ 90+ year-old Shatner starring in the next HALLOWEEN reboot? Michael Myers is just some rando stand-in during early scenes when he escapes the asylum, then when he finds the Captain Kirk mask, VOILA! William Shatner plays The Shape! 

[zombie no.one]

I mean... using A.I. to resurrect a guy who is still alive is a bit too 'meta' for my brain to process today but cool idea  anyway

wonder did Shatner ever sue for using his likeness? always found it very odd they should use a mask of his face, even though it does look suitably creepy

[M.10rda]

Kind of a credit to/contribution to his legacy, right?

Between Michael Myers and one of my favorite lines from FIGHT CLUB ("I'd fight Shatner"), dude is immortalized in timeless classics and he didn't actually have to invest any time or effort (besides just existing)!

Lon Chaney Jr in the Son of Dracula meets The Mummy and the Wolfman!

getting an actor back from beyond the grave to play characters who come back from beyond the grave... it's the (A.I) role they were born (died) to play!

Bruce Lee would be a good one. got a feeling Tarantino would cook something up for him to star in

[ER]

Does brain dead count? Then Gary Busey.

[M.10rda]

Hey, if using AI guarantees me another season of GARY BUSEY: PET JUDGE, I'm all for it!
