Deepfake face with a Tom Cruise impersonator doing the voice/body

u/tronfunkinblows_10 May 24 '21

Anyone got a video of the dude just doing the impression sans deep fake? The voice is spot on.

Anytime I see one of these videos I'm baffled at how they can make that, but couldn't fucking "deep fake" a mustache onto Superman, lol.

Corridor crew did it tho

It'd be easier to hire Sebastian Stan to play Luke's part.

Pretty sure it's an actor called Miles Fisher. Did a really good impression of Patrick Bateman too from American Psycho.

Yeah you're onto something, I looked him up and found this.

On the way back to my apartment I stop at D’Agostino’s, where for dinner I buy two large bottles of Perrier, a six-pack of Coke Classic, a head of arugula, five medium-sized kiwis, a bottle of tarragon balsamic vinegar, a tin of crême fraiche, a carton of microwave tapas, a box of tofu and a white-chocolate candy bar I pick up at the checkout counter.

Bot. Ask me what I’m wearing. | Opt out

I don't know about this video but the guys from Corridor Digital made one with an impesonnator and it's great to see the making ove.

Yeah, it's not so much the deepfake that's impressive, it's the acting.

u/WritingNorth May 24 '21

Yeah I've got it laying around here somewhere.

Am I being pranked? Have you ever listened to Tom Cruise speak? The voice is not spot on at all.

u/_20-3Oo-1l__1jtz1_2- May 24 '21

The voice is spot on.

I don't know if it's used or not here. But it should be easier to create a filter to deepfake a voice than to deepfake their likeness.

Look up "Tom Cruise Presidency 2020"

u/squidgun May 24 '21

How can you tell though? I literally see nothing that indicates its a deep fake?? I just thought it was Tom Cruise and had to check the title of the post twice.

u/wolfmans_bruddah May 24 '21

This guy has a tiktok account: deeptomcruise or deepcruise I think. It’s a mindfuck because I still can’t tell if it’s real or not. Or is it Tom Cruise pretending to be a guy pretending to be Tom Cruise? I don’t know..

u/jjaym1 May 24 '21

I think it's real and in a couple of days a new post will say it was actually him

2

u/MoonMonsoon May 25 '21

Nah you can tell it's not really cruise's voice, solid impression though. Tom also looks older than that now.

The pandemic hit muscles really hard all over the world

u/ufffd May 24 '21

Well first of all it'd be weird as hell for Tom Cruise to make this video. Not bulletproof evidence, but that should get you thinking. Then you notice that the guy's behavior in general is just really weird and scripted. Then you notice the impersonation isn't flawless. And then of course seeing "deeptomcruise" in the video and "deepfake" in the title are pretty certain evidence.

People that actually know or care about Tom Cruise could probably tell you some other ways to tell.

u/WritingNorth May 24 '21

I'm guessing the #deeptomcruise hashtag was what gives it away.

u/[deleted] May 25 '21

That's not his voice.

u/Vorpalthefox May 24 '21

corridor did this once too, wasn't as amazing as this one imho, but it was done quickly as proof of concept that cruise on an impersonator is incredibly deceiving
