    lol, like that’s going to stop them.

    You signed their contracts and they will find a way to own and replicate your likeness.

      surely the contracts he signed are for a limited number of appearances, not to use his likeness in perpetuity. this is nothing new in hollywood, contracts have been drawn up considering likenesses for a very long time, AI is not really anything new in that regard.
