    I feel like this should only be possible for a year or two after the passing of an actor, to extend, or even complete, their work in a piece they already participated in while alive.

    After that, even if the same role is brought back in a new story, it should go to a living actor.

      Not something I would have ever thought of, but this is actually a pretty solid idea.

      Especially un a time where AI is a pretty big issue for the entertainment industry.

      Like, a lot of my favorite actors are old as shit. To finish unfinished work and put a close to a character would be an excellent use of the technology. End of life purposes with respectful boundaries
