I’d be okay with this only if Gene signed off on it while he was alive. “Consent of his estate” doesn’t cut it for me.
If that’s the case for a show such as this, and people want to see this, then who am I to question it? It’s not for me, but many things aren’t.
Bruce Willis sold the rights to his digital version. Yes, he was under duress at the time, but he wasn’t incompetent, so I’m okay with them making another Die Hard, if that’s what they want to do. I wouldn’t see it, but some might.
I imagine the thinking goes, “I’ll be dead, I don’t care, and if my loved ones can make some scratch off my image, then so be it.” That’s how I’d feel about it, and would sign whatever was needed to allow this to happen.
Whether this becomes a common practice all depends on how many people pay to see it.
