Morgan Freeman said his lawyers are already “very, very busy” tackling unauthorized artificial intelligence (AI) uses of his voice that have left the actor feeling “a little PO’d.”
“Many, yeah. Quite a few,” Freeman told The Guardian on Monday when asked about ongoing cases.
While promoting his latest film, “Now You See Me: Now You Don’t,” the 88-year-old actor discussed his views on artificial intelligence replicating actors’ voices after their deaths, such as the late James Earl Jones.
Jones had given Lucasfilm permission to continue using his voice as Darth Vader through AI technology before his death, but Freeman strongly disagreed with the idea.
“ I’m a little PO’d, you know,” Freeman said. “I’m like any other actor: don’t mimic me with falseness. I don’t appreciate it
