Stranger Things Producer Says They Won’t Be Using AI to De-Age Actors

Stranger Things executive producer Shawn Levy dispelled any rumors that the show runners would use AI to de-age the cast.Executive producer for Netflix hit Stranger Things recently shut down the idea that production would use AI to reverse the effects of aging for the primary cast per Deadline. Prior to the interview, Levy discussed that production would do what they could to try and make the young actors’ aging less visible, but his words were misconstrued by outlets. “I kind of was surprised that one sentence I said around this topic traveled so widely,” he said. “The bottom line is, we know what we’re doing on this show. Our cast is brilliant. And these characters that the Duffers have created are so vivid. I’m not worried about everyone suiting back up and bringing them to life.”Seeing as the use of AI in film and TV is still relatively new and not well-received, the choice to rely on makeup is probably a good one. Levy went on to state, “The thing that people just need to remember is, we who make the show are fans of the show, too,” he said. “And you better believe we want to stick the landing.” It seems that Levy and the entire Stranger Things team have a great deal of faith in the show’s cast, writers, producers and all parties involved — and that adding AI to the mix would be unnecessary.Shawn Levy Reveals His Initial Reactions to Stranger Things’ Success
