For those who don't know, a certain iconic actor makes an appearance in a certain recent f/x sci-fi film, an actor who has been dead for years. I was immediately repulsed by this...then I remembered Steve Martin's Dead Men Don't Wear Plaid and Marty Feldman's The Last Remake of Beau Geste.
I have not yet seen the current recent f/x film in question, but somehow, I doubt the intentions were the same.
For those who have the seen the current recent f/x film in question and know of what I speak, what are your feelings? Heresey? Or Wave of the Future? Should actors now be licensing their image and likeness and voice for use beyond their death?
For the actor in the digital age, this is a Brave New World.
