Hollywood star Tom Hanks is talking about how Artificial Intelligence technology could potentially make it possible for him to continue appearing in new films even after his death. “What is a bona fide possibility right now, if I wanted to, [is] I could get together and pitch a series of seven movies that would star me in them in which I would be 32 years old from now until kingdom come,” Hanks said in a podcast. 

He added, “Anybody can now recreate themselves at any age they are by way of AI or deep fake technology as I could be hit by a bus tomorrow, but my performances can go on.” Hanks, who has reteamed with Forrest Gump director Robert Zemeckis for Here, will likely use AI technology for the project.
