Movie Actors in Marvel's Avengers; Future of Facial Expressions in Games

We won't find actors known from Marvel Cinematic Universe in Marvel's Avengers. However, a video has appeared on the web, which shows what this game would look like if Robert Downey Jr., Chris Evans, Scarlett Johansson, Chris Hemsworth and Mark Ruffalo were to perform.

What if Marvel's Avengers from Crystal Dynamics featured actors known from the movies...?

Already the first presentation of Marvel's Avengers divided the fans, and one of the reasons for this was the fact that the game in question will not feature actors known from Marvel Cinematic Universe. Eight days before the game's release, a video appeared on the BabyZone channel on YouTube, which shows how Crystal Dynamics' work could look like if it featured Robert Downey Jr, Chris Evans, Scarlett Johansson, Chris Hemsworth and Mark Ruffalo.

The whole thing was created thanks to a technology known as deepfake and doesn't look bad for the effect of a month's work of one person. It is not difficult to imagine that this solution could be the future of facial expresions in video games; however, someone would still have to do something with the "dead" eyes of the characters.
