The technology itself isn’t necessarily the problem; it’s the way it's being implemented.
The Big Picture Star Wars is far from a flawless franchise. Hardcore fans are usually the first ones to point this out. There’s a love-hate relationship there after years of triumphs and disappointments — and like anything that goes on long enough, there’s an ebb and flow to its displays of strengths and weaknesses.
De-Aging Star Wars Characters Is Getting Less Fun and More Weird When the tech was rolled out again for another brief Leia cameo in The Rise of Skywalker, for a flashback showing her receiving some Jedi training, it was already getting a bit more noticeable. The doughy softness that seems characteristic of all of these renderings seemed more distinct but still, the scene was brief overall and so easy to forget .
Of course, with incidents like the digital resurrections done for 2023’s The Flash and this practice being used more and more, we also have to consider the ethical implications of this technology as well. When does it stop being a cute trick and become a form of exploitation? At least when it’s just digitally de-aging living actors we know they’ve consented to the use of their likeness, but that gets muddier when the subject being replicated can no longer have a say in the matter.
