AI Casting Dwayne Johnson in Local Crime is Cinema

I just saw the AI video casting Henry Cavill and Dwayne Johnson in a regional crime drama and I am losing it. For years, I’ve complained about the lack of grit in Hollywood, and it turns out the solution was just putting an A-lister in a grainy suburban driveway. It’s the ultimate critique of the blockbuster era—digital puppets doing more work than the real actors ever could. If you want a real performance, apparently you have to generate it.
