Peter Cushing's digital replica rights as Star Wars Moff Tarkin Lawsuit thrown out of UK court today.

Legendary actor Peter Cushing played Grand Moff Tarkin in Star Wars (1977).
The actor passed away in 1994.
LucasFilm resurrected Cushing to play Tarkin for Rogue One (2016) with a digital creation from Visual effects company Industrial Light & Magic (ILM) after Cushing's family agreed to the project.
Tyburn Film Productions took LucasFilm/Disney to the UK courts in 2021 arguing they held rights over the star being bought back to life by technology and the digital replica used in Rogue One was done without permission.
Today (18th Dec 2025) after four years, appeal judges tossed the case out of court based on the fact that Tyburn's contract did not apply in this case.
The news continues to add weight to many actors opposed to digital scanning and AI.
