The Ghost in the Machine: When Actors Died Before Their Movies Lived

What happens when death interrupts a production mid-shoot? From Brandon Lee's tragic accident on The Crow to the digital resurrection of actors using body doubles, CGI, and archive footage, we explore the technical wizardry and ethical minefield of posthumous performances. These aren't just stories about loss—they're about the lengths filmmakers will go to honor a vision, complete a story, and sometimes exploit a legacy. Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.
