It's Curtains for Hollywood Actors in AI Future

New Role for AI in Hollywood

Could we see Marlon Brando and Heath Ledger in a new film release?

Ever dream of that perfect actor from the past or an all star list of performers from Hollywood's golden era playing in a modern movie? In an AI future, it could become reality. And movie goers wouldn't know otherwise.

In the future, AI will be able to copy the mannerisms of famous long ago actors in their most prominent performances and regenerate new ones for the big screen. Imagine a young Humphrey Bogart starring in a love story with Scarlett Johansson.

New movies starring actors like Marlon Brando and Heath Ledger would be possible. Directors and producers could pluck the ideal actor or actress for certain roles for AI to recreate. And the performances would be dynamic as well with AI formulating performances based on its best predictions of how actors would respond to stimuli.

AI would be involved in other areas of movie production as well, reducing the cost of film making significantly. More in this article: AI to transform Hollywood
