Eldorado Posted November 6, 2019 #1 Share Posted November 6, 2019 "Hollywood icon James Dean is due for a cinematic resurrection after it was announced the actor has been “cast” in a Vietnam war drama about military dogs. "According to the Hollywood Reporter, directors Anton Ernst and Tati Golykh have acquired the rights to use the image of the actor – who died in 1955 – from his family in an adaptation of Gareth Crocker’s novel, Finding Jack. The novel follows a soldier who bonds with a labrador called Jack during the conflict, but is ordered to leave the dog behind, along with thousands of others, when the US military pulls out. "The film-makers will use pre-existing film and photographs to create a “full body” CGI version of Dean, with another actor providing his voice."

+OverSword Posted November 6, 2019 #2 Share Posted November 6, 2019 (edited) I wondered when this would happen. Soon big productions will use the likeness of deceased actors and pay people much less to wear a green body suit, saving millions. I wonder when the new Jayne Mansfield comes out?

I heard that Whitney Houston was set to do some touring again I guess I can see the draw but it's also kind of creepy if it becomes common. 2 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gosh she was beautiful - although I thought they made her look a bit too anime-ish in that. The eyelashes were a tad over the top. Still amazing! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
