Actor and Director Tom Hanks Says He Will Live on The Big Screen Forever Thanks to AI
In Brief
Tom Hanks says AI is developing so fast that it will recreate him in Hollywood movies long after he is dead.
Tom Hanks is confident that artificial intelligence is developing so rapidly that it will make him a star in Hollywood movies long after he is dead.
Thanks to artificial intelligence, Oscar-winner Tom Hanks could live forever on the big screen. Since he believes AI will recreate him in movies long after he is dead, Hanks, 66, believes that predicting its rise 20 years ago in his movie Industry predictions is a good way to predict its rise today.
In making the 2004 computer animated movie “The Polar Express”, he was reimagined as a digital train conductor. ‘What is a bonafide possibility right now is that I could pitch a series of seven movies about me that I would be 32 years old from now until kingdom come, ‘ Hanks said, speaking with British comedian Adam Buxton.
Today’s most notable celebrities are scrambling to secure copyright to their faces as AI’s advancements now have teams behind them scrambling to secure these celebrities the copyrights. Despite all the discussions going on, all the agencies, and all the legal firms, Hanks claims that there are no legal ramifications regarding his face, voice, and other individuals’ intellectual property.
In January, Hanks and Zemeckis announced they would use Deep Fake technology in an upcoming film, Here, which will feature Paul Bettany, Kelly Reilly and Robin Wright. In order to achieve the transformation into younger versions of themselves, the cast will be seamlessly transforming into younger versions of themselves in ways that were previously impossible, Zemeckis said.
The technical expertise of Zemeckis and Hanks, who won the Best Director Oscar for “Forrest Gump” in 1994, has not always been recognised by the critical community.
The world’s first alldigital motioncapture movie, “The Polar Express”, broke new ground in 2004, but struggled at the box office. “The Incredibles”, Pixar’s $70 million pop culture rival film that opened the same month as “The Polar Express”.
“Here”, film starring Tom Hanks and Phil Zemanik, is being produced by Hanks and Zemeckis (who are represented by CAA) and was financed by Metaphysic (which is in charge of Deep Fake technology).
“The story of two young men in different phases of their lives is adapted into a graphic novel. We didn’t think that Deepfake technology would work so well on “Here”. It would depend on the perfect and seamless deployment of Deep Fake technology,” Hanks said. People will definitely be able to tell, but how will they react? Hanks replied. ‘There are some people who won’t care, who won’t make that distinction. ‘
While working on “The Polar Express” in 2004, Hanks predicted the rise of artificial intelligence in film, according to Zemeckis. “We knew this was going to happen, ‘Hanks said. ‘We saw that zero and one could be used to make a face and a character.’
“It has only grown a billionfold since then and we see it everywhere. At some point, technology will probably become indistinguishable from reality,” he said.
According to Hanks, the only thing that will be able to tell you that a deepfake is not him and only him is that it has some lifelike quality, is that outside of the understanding that it’s being done by AI or deep fake, there will be nothing to tell you that it’s not me and me alone and it has some degree of lifelike quality.
Joe Russo believes that Artificial Intelligence will make movies in just two years, so he believes that echo those produced by Avengers Director Kim Hanks. In April, Russo announced that not only will the technology create movies, but it will be able to revive long-dead actors to play starring roles. ‘Make me Doctor Strange,’ Russo quipped before recommending that he become Humphrey Bogart and George Clooney in a movie about contemporary films.
