- 5hoom 15y agoThat's an interesting point, and one that I could easily imagine happening. I suppose the only problem for the movie producer is who holds copyright on a persons face? Imagine George Lucas & co. wants to make 'Indianna Jones 5 - the prequel' with this technology using a likeness of a young Harrison Ford. The studio owns the likeness of the character 'Indianna Jones', but surely Harrison Ford owns the likeness to his own face (IANAL, but curious if there's precedent for this sort of thing).
- ippisl 15y agoI think the more common use case would be getting face copyright from someone beautifull , and building it to stardom. I think if a major studio would want to build stars that way , it won't take them long.max a few years. so there won't be a long transition period anyways.
