A.I. Shows What Old Hollywood Celebrities Would Look Like If They Were ‘Modernized’ (20 Pics)
Hollywood is known for having the best, most talented, and beautiful actors and actresses. Most of us probably know great actresses from old Hollywood. Like the beautiful and talented Audrey Hepburn, or the icon of beauty—Marilyn Monroe. But how would they and 18 more women look if they lived in today's times?
I decided to use A.I. and many other applications to colorize and modernize these photos. It's interesting to see what famous actresses would look like in the 21st century. Of course, A.I. is not perfect yet, so some photos are kinda wonky and some even change the faces completely. Tell us what you think in the comments and upvote your favorite remake!

They should have given her back her natural hair color. The studio made her get her hairline raised and lighten her hair. Rita also used her mother's maiden name because her birth name of Cansino sounded too Spanish.

So by ‘modernising’ we simply mean filtering? They all lose their authentic beauty and charisma if you ask me,

On the update, the sharper cut in on the lower right cheek ruined her original beauty. Her fuller and more natural cheeks have her the look that fit her and her character. But I may be wrong.

Making the upper lip fuller destroyed her identity, she now looks anonymous.

They made her smile more, what is with people asking women to smile more!

It's funny because all the left pictures have been heavily retouched themselves. Carole Lombard had a not insignificant scar on her left cheek (if you watch My Man Godfrey, and you should, it's most noticeable in her side profile when sitting at the dump). She had another one near her left eye and one more by her mouth. Nearly every released picture of her had this airbrushed out; it was airbrushed in most movies, where possible, such as in strong front shots or when they couldn't use trick lighting to hide it.

Yeah, I hate this. You changed the stunning looks of these classic women for the worse, stripping them of their individuality. The worse was Marlene Dietrich. Sorry that I hate this.
Donna Leske 3 years ago
I agree. Enlarging lips and more hair plus more eye makeup do not result in modernizing a particular person. Perhaps I interpreted the artist's intent wrongly. I believe I thought the effort was to show how they would look today. The title could have been 'How I Would Alter Old-Time Movie Stars'. Still a fun and skillful presentation.

These women were just fine the way they looked. Why use AI? Can't we just colorize the photos and not have a program change their features and make completely new women out of them? I'm not mad at you, just the whole notion of women adapting to beauty standards set by society, even posthumously.

Fail. She isn't Audrey Hepburn anymore. You have changed her natural beauty into the airbrushed, photoshopped fake version popular today -- which nobody likes. Creating a template or definition of attractive is harmful. Instead of seeing individually and imperfections as beautiful, "attractive" is narrowly defined. I couldn't look at the rest.

Sorry. I didn't compliment how skilfully this was done. Regardless of the subject matter, your images are beautiful.

I don't understand why we feel the need to hold things in the past to today's standards.

OK, every single picture change ruined the unique beauty of these women. The originals were fabulous, the "updated" ones generic.

You can't even tell who some them are in the 'after' pictures. Sorry, Hidreley, but you went too far. Should have modernized their hair and clothes, but not their faces.

Regardless whether or not you hate what the AI did, this was just for fun. I think the sheer amount backlash in the comments is unnecessary. It was just to make the older celebrities look more modern. Even though I agree with many of these comments on their individuality, remember that these women wore makeup back then anyway. This was just to see how they would look modern. Now I'm going back to my cup of tea and forget about the hatred of the AI in the comments. Either way, it's just an opinion. I wish no hate on anyone for an opinion.

It looks like their faces were made narrow and longer, fuller lips....I like the b/w pictures of them better.
Jack Candy 3 years ago
Most of the new pictures are awful. Not more than pretty, but empty faces. The AI almost always makes the eyes bigger (and blue), the lips fuller (as if the AI likes botox), and erases everything that made these women special. The biggest crimes are the new pictures of Lauren Bacall, Marlene Dietrich, Audrey Hepburn, and Katherine Hepburn.

Why the downvotes on @hilly field? It's just an opinion. Here hilly, take my upvote. Why do you deserve downvotes for saying what you think?
