James Earl Jones collaborated with AI to clone his voice for 'Obi-Wan Kenobi,' ensuring his legacy while navigating his rights and creative input in the project.
Respeecher trained their AI to mimic Jones' iconic voice using original 'Star Wars' footage, while the actor offered guidance on the character despite his aging vocal limitations.
The controversy surrounding digital recreations in Hollywood is highlighted by Kevin Francis's lawsuit against Disney, claiming Peter Cushing's likeness was misused without consent.
While Jones granted permission for his voice to be replicated, Cushing's estate raises ethical concerns about consent and legacy in the evolving landscape of digital media.
