Talking earlier about the film, Will Smith said, “When I first saw it. It was freaky. It was me. I was looking at the perfect 23-year-old version of me like somebody took all the flaws out. It’s cinematically astounding. This is going to change how movies are made, and how movies are seen.”
Smith also added that the reason he was able to play both the characters because of what he has learned as an actor over the years.
VFX supervisor Bill Westenhofer revealed that the clone of a younger Smith is a “completely digital creation, 100 percent driven by Will Smith’s performance capture”.
Gemini Man is slated to release on October 11th.
