Tom Hanks And Robin Wright Will Be De-Aged Using AI Tech In A New Robert Zemeckis Movie
Don’t ever let anybody tell you that nepotism in Hollywood is a real issue. Sure, it happens on occasion that some son or daughter of a famous face lands a role based solely on their lineage. But even the staunchest nepo baby apologists, like Tom Hanks, can’t stop the robots from coming and stealing all the good nepo baby jobs from actual hard-working nepo babies. According to The Hollywood Reporter, Tom and his Forrest Gump Jenny, Robin Wright, have booked themselves another ride on the Robert Zemeckis Express to the Uncanny Valley for a movie called Here, in which Tom and Robin will be de-aged “using a new generative AI-driven tool dubbed Metaphysic Live.” And now, because of some computer’s ability to take magical bits and bites out of Tom’s face, his HUMAN BORN son Truman Hanks is out of a job. Can you believe they call this progress? I call it an aberration of the natural nepotistic order.
You Can Make $125,000 By Donating Your Face To Robots
This offer might sound like a spam ad from the comments section of a Kotaku post, but no – it’s for reals. Popular Mechanics reports that Geomiq, a London-based “additive manufacturing and machining” startup is looking for someone to be the face of someone’s robots. You don’t have to fork over your actual face to them, but this does read like the premise for what could be a fairly successful horror movie.
