Synthetic Actor Tilly Norwood Provokes Hollywood Debate

Eline Van der Velden created synthetic AI actor Tilly Norwood, igniting controversy after claims in late September that talent agencies would represent the avatar. Van der Velden backtracked in December, then reintroduced Norwood last week in a motion-capture music video and said directors are working with the character; SAG-AFTRA and studios are debating royalties amid consumer skepticism (56% oppose human-caliber AI actors).
