62-year-old Lawrence Ng has been in the entertainment industry for over 40 years, starring in many widely acclaimed Hong Kong dramas. In recent years, he has mostly developed his career in China. On the 28th, he attended a promotional event for TVB’s new drama "The Murder in Karras", unexpectedly becoming the center of attention. In an interview, he revealed that he recently sold his likeness for the production of an AI-generated film: "They used my 20-year-old appearance to make a movie." He jokingly said he didn't even need to act, and after watching it he was satisfied, frankly admitting it was great to relive the feeling of being a leading man.
In addition, Lawrence Ng stated that since he signed a contract, he’s not worried about the other party using his likeness for other films; as for his remuneration, he only revealed that it was "not bad," and is not afraid that AI will affect his acting career, exclaiming that it’s fantastic to get things done just by sitting around.
