AI influencers exist — but can an AI movie star ever sustain a real career?
knivef · reddit · 2026-10-18
A Reddit discussion on the gap between AI influencers (Lil Miquela's brand deals, Tilly Norwood pitched as the first AI actress) and a lasting AI movie star. A one-off AI role rides on curiosity; repeat casting requires studios to believe the character draws audiences and fans to return film after film. The hard part may be human: interviews, a public life, career growth. Open questions: how many years away, animation/games before live action, and whether unions and backlash kill it first.
