Film star - fake ?

[12noon]

I've just read something on another website about a person at pixar films and he said that there is a celeb out (in films) that is fake and they have been working on making her/him look real since 1985 and she/he became a celeb in 1996 so who do you think she/he is?

It's someone who is in films but never goes on talk shows and doesn't pick up awards. Oh yes and he said that the celeb is gonna be revealed this year sometime.

Anyone got any idea who the FAKE (very good life like cartoon) could be ?

Or is the thing i read a fake and they aren't good enough yet to make a film with a animated person in that looks real ?

Do you have the URL? I'd be curious to read it myself.

Personally, I don't believe this person exists. I've seen many 3d animated films in the past, and even the most lifelike animated characters do not resemble a real human enough to fool anyone.

There was a movie based on something like this. It was called "Simone" I think. Could you have read something about this movie? The technology isn't there yet to have a fake star. They still have not gotten hair/light or facial structure correct yet. That is what has been holding htem back

I'm not sure of the exact URL, but it was posted on www.g4tv.com on the forums.

Anyway i bet that if this isn't true, that in the future animated film stars will become just as big stars as all the real film stars.
