I see comparisons with David Bowie and Bruce Springsteen selling the rights to their back catalogs.
While this firm seems a little sketchy to me and probably didn't really own the rights to his likeness, I think it's something he and other older actors should consider to provide a financial legacy for their heirs. I imagine the contract would contain things like what an acceptable use would be, payments for using it, and caps on fees.
- elbo_ 4y agoThis seems like a dystopian path to go down. In 200 years will all actors be judged on their ability to wear the face of actors who lived before them? When current actors get old and can't act, just let them stop acting. I don't see what the world gains from continuing to plaster Bruce Willis' face onto action dudes, aside from a few people lining their pockets.
