'The resurrection of dead actors in film through AI — a growing trend — is bad for the acting community and it’s bad for the movies.' Read the op-ed here:
Acting has always been an extremely competitive profession, making it consequential who breaks through. This is in part why some bemoan that so many actors are the children of famous Hollywood directors and stars. AI-generated thespians exacerbate the challenge by stealing career opportunities from aspiring actors.
Failing to showcase new talent is a particular problem if we believe in inclusiveness. On-screen representation is trending in the right direction, but could backslide if casts are staffed from earlier eras. Of course, looking to the past is part of the creative process. We support open culture and allowing individuals to use others’ work as inspiration for their own. Yet there is a critical difference between taking a dead individual and casting them in a new film and simply borrowing ideas or a few lines from another’s novel.
