I suspect they will digitally reproduce dead stars and have them act in movies as if they were alive. Humphry Bogart and John Wayne star in, “I married another man.”

It starts.....

And it ends. He will end up spending millions on a toy that will be no better than the Hall of Presidents at Disney, and it will never be tried again.

CGI is far superior and cheaper for film.

Now, if you want to talk about the Broadway version...

George Lucas already broke that ground when he casted Hayden Christensen in the Star Wars Prequels. ;)

So, instead of an actor/actress getting paid to work, someone building and controlling a robot will get paid. I’m sure that will sit well with the various actors’ unions and agents.

When they want robotic acting, they typically cast Jennifer Lawrence.

The prototype of the robot is still a better actor
than Ben Affleck.
