Prior to this, Laurence Olivier's likeness was used to portray the villain in 2004's Sky Captain And The World Of Tomorrow.
Now using CGI resurrections are become somewhat common, such as Peter Cushing being digitally recreated to play Moff Tarkin once again in Rogue One, where his likeness was inserted over actor Guy Henry. There had also been some examples of adverts making use of clips of deceased actors, like a 1991 Diet Coke commercial featuring Humphrey Bogart, James Cagney and Louis Armstrong, but nothing on the scale Stallone was talking about. He stated:ĬGI was still in its relative infancy when Judge Dredd was shot, with the blockbuster itself mostly making use of practical effects and sets. Curiously, that same year while Sylvester Stallone was filming Judge Dredd, an unearthed behind the scenes documentary (via The Italian Stallion YouTube channel) saw the actor make an eeriely accurate prediction about CG being used to resurrect long-deceased actors. The Crow is now a cult favorite and its sparring usage of CGI to complete Lee's scenes was seen as tastefully used. Related: Every Unmade Horror Movie Sylvester Stallone Almost Starred In The movie was almost abandoned, but the filmmakers decided to complete the movie in Lee's honor and use a body double - played by future John Wick director Chad Stahelski - with CG face replacement used to complete the few remaining scenes. The first prominent use of this was 1994's The Crow, where lead actor Brandon Lee was tragically killed during an on set accident. One area that remains controversial among both filmmakers and viewers is that of CGI resurrections. Of course, some films abused or grossly overestimated what CG could achieve, resulting in projects that suffered for its use, like The Mummy Returns or more recent examples like Cats.
