<p>As if a months long strike with no resolution in sight isn't enough, now striking
actors are facing the threat of synthetic scabs. The Hollywood Reporter, <a href=redirect.php3?op=redir&sid=27&url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.eonline.com%2FNews%2FItems%2F0%2C1%2C6931%2C00.html>E!
Online</a> and<a href="http://www.empireonline.co.uk/news/news.asp?story=2455">
Empire</a> reported yesterday that Al Pacino will be staring with a computer-generated
leading lady in his next film--"Simone." </p>
<p>The disturbing part of this news for the acting community is that the CGI starlet
isn't a "character" like Jar-Jar Binks or Roger Rabbit, but essentially an actress
who just happens to be digital. A SAG spokesman noted that "an actor is losing
his job." <br><br><p>Of course, since movies have long been a rich source of material to be recycled
into advertising, it's only a matter of time before these synthespians start
popping up in commercials. And you can bet they won't be programmed to hold
picket signs.</p>
<p> However, one thing these digital dramatists appear to share with their human
counterparts is a fondness for press agents. They're also featured in a story
about the "Final Fantasy" film in the current <a href=redirect.php3?op=redir&sid=27&url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.msnbc.com%2Fnews%2FNW-ent_Front.asp>
Newsweek</a>. </p>
