LOS ANGELES—Actor Val Kilmer will posthumously appear in what First Line Films calls a first-ever performance enabled by generative artificial intelligence in the upcoming film “As Deep as the Grave,” the production company announced on Wednesday.
Kilmer, best known for roles in “Top Gun,” “The Doors” and “Batman Forever,” had originally been cast as Father Fintan—a Catholic priest and Native American spiritualist—but was unable to work on set due to complications stemming from throat cancer. He was 65 when he died in April last year.
