Is there a process formalizing consent from actors and actresses in such cases? There probably should be in the case of body double. But it would be an unreasonable expectation in the case of parody. But these are all questions that need to get answered before. Asking those questions and observing that they appear to not have been dealt with doesn't mean you think deepfake revenge porn is A-OK.
