Tom Hanks says he will live on the big screen forever thanks to AI

Two-time Oscar-winner Tom Hanks could live forever on the big screen with the help of artificial intelligence. Hanks, 66, claims to have predicted the rise of AI in the film industry 20 years ago and believes it will recreate him in films long after he is dead. He said the powers of AI came to him when making the 2004 computer-animated movie The Polar Express when he was reimagined as a digital train conductor. 'What is a bonafide possibility right now is - if I wanted to - 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, speaking with British comedian Adam Buxton. 'I can tell you that there's discussions going on in all of the guilds, all of the agencies, and all of the legal firms in order to come up with the legal ramifications of my face and my voice and everybody else's being our intellectual property,' Hanks said.
