Bruce Willis förnekar att deepfake-bolag äger ansiktet

Skådespelaren Bruce Willis nekar via sin agent till uppgifter om att han ska ha sålt rättigheterna till sitt ansikte till ett deepfake-bolag, skriver BBC.

Uppgifterna om den påstådda överenskommelsen fick stor spridning förra veckan men enligt Wills talesperson har stjärnan ”inget avtal” med företaget vid namn Deepfake. En talesperson säger att ingen annan än Willis själv äger rätten till hans ansikte.

En av medierna som plockade upp nyheten var Telegraph som skrev att Willis blivit den första Hollywood-stjärnan som sålt rätten att skapa en ”digital tvilling”.

Walter Bruce Willis (born March 19, 1955) is an American actor. His career began on the off-Broadway stage in the 1970s. He achieved fame with a leading role on the comedy-drama series Moonlighting (1985–1989) and appeared in over a hundred films, gaining recognition as an action hero after his portrayal of John McClane in the Die Hard franchise (1988–2013) and other roles.Willis's other credits include The Last Boy Scout (1991), Death Becomes Her (1992), Pulp Fiction (1994), 12 Monkeys (1995), The Fifth Element (1997), Armageddon (1998), The Sixth Sense (1999), Unbreakable (2000), Sin City (2005), Moonrise Kingdom (2012), and Looper (2012). In the later years of his career, Willis starred in many low-budget direct-to-video films, which were poorly received. In March 2022, Willis's family announced that he was retiring after being diagnosed with aphasia, which affects language cognition. As a singer, Willis released his debut album, The Return of Bruno, in 1987, followed by two more albums in 1989 and 2001. He made his Broadway debut in the stage adaptation of Misery in 2015. Willis has received various accolades throughout his career, including a Golden Globe Award, two Primetime Emmy Awards, and two People's Choice Awards. He received a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame in 2006. Films featuring Willis have grossed between US$2.64 billion and $3.05 billion at North American box offices, making him in 2010 the eighth-highest-grossing actor in a leading role.
