Yesterday I posted Back to the Future with Tom Holland as Marty and Robert Downy Jr. as Doc Brown. This latest deepfake has Neo take the blue pill and wake up at Peter's soul-crushing cubicle job from Office Space. Naturally Agent Smith is there as Bill Lumbergh.
According to Gizmodo, this one is by YouTube deepfaker Ctrl Shift Face and VFX artist Chris Ume. "Neo Takes The Blue Pill" goes the extra mile. Not just swapping faces from The Matrix onto characters from Office Space, they also used a Keanu Reeves impersonator to re-record all of the Peter lines in a perfect Neo voice. Plus, tons of other creative little touches to make it feel properly "Matrixy."
Check it out and then watch the VFX breakdown video for kicks.
