I'm thinking people will probably still want to see their favorite actors, so established actors may sell the rights to their image. They're sitting on a lot of capital. Bad time to be becoming an actor though.
- throwaway743 3y agoLikely less and less tho given that people will be able to generate a hyper personalized set of actors/characters/personalities in their hyper personalized generated media. Younger generations growing up with hyper personalized media will likely care even less about irl media figures.
- lIl-IIIl 3y agoYou are talking about movie and TV stars, not actors in general. The vast majority of working actors are not known to the audience.
- Animats 3y agoEven the average SAG-AFTRA member barely makes a living wage from acting. And those are the ones that got into the union. There's a whole tier below that. If you spend time in LA, you probably know some actress/model/waitress types. There's also the weird misery of being famous, but not rich. You can't eat fame.
