Robert Downey Jr. doesn’t think Marvel executives would ever re-create his portrayal of Tony Stark using artificial intelligence. But if they did, he would lawyer up — even posthumously.
On a recent episode of the “On With Kara Swisher” podcast, the Oscar-winning actor said he intends to “sue all future executives” who allow an AI-created version of him. Speaking about his role as Iron Man, Downey said he does not want his likeness re-created by AI technology.
“I am not worried about them hijacking my character’s soul because there’s like three or four guys and gals who make all the decisions there anyway and they would never do that to me, with or without me,” Downey said.
Swisher noted that those executives would eventually be replaced.
“Well, you’re right,” Downey said. “I would like to here state that I intend to sue all future executives just on spec.”
“You’ll be dead,” Swisher said.
Downey replied: “But my law firm will still be very active.”
How prince’s eyes were opened to homelessness
Prince William has opened up about how a powerful childhood experience with his brother and late mother helped shape his work combating homelessness.
In the Prince of Wales’ forthcoming documentary, “Prince William: We Can End Homelessness,” the 42-year-old heir to the British throne recalls visiting The Passage, a British charity for the homeless, alongside his late mother, Diana. William first visited the charity when he was 11.
“My mother took me to The Passage; she took Harry and I both there,” William says in a newly released clip from the two-part documentary series directed by BAFTA winner Leo Burley.
“I remember having some good conversations, just playing chess and chatting. That’s when it dawned on me that there are other people out there who don’t have the same life as you do.”
Filmed over a year, the documentary follows the initial stages of William’s Homewards initiative.
Founded by the prince and his Royal Foundation in June 2023, Homewards is a five-year program in six flagship locations around the U.K. that he hopes will demonstrate it is possible to end homelessness.
