Come on thats crazy, why should they make new content with dead people? Should we bring back Marilyn Monroe? would it be enjoyable to watch movies or even a Ads of dead people, that are made by AI? Leave the dead where he is, its not a good idea to use dead actors/stars. Yes they had a success back in their era, but now its a new era, and we need something new not old. As for the rights, I believe they should ban any form of AI related in movies etc., it may be just the beginning.

The movie industry is allergic to any new ideas unless it can be used to regurgitate old ideas that are safe money makers. They'd rather people watch dead actors or the same plot twisted around for the millionth time because of nostalgia instead of trying something new.

In this situation I would stop watching movies.
