Recast a war scene with AI
Morphic Recast swaps the actors in finished footage while keeping the original performance, camera and timing, so a war scene can be recast without a reshoot. Add one photo per soldier in costume: the crouch, the hand on the shoulder and every line land on the same beat, in the same smoke and mud.

A trench scene, recast. Two photos, two new soldiers. The crouch, the grip on the shoulder, the smoke and the grey light are as shot; play with sound to hear the same lines.

Was sich ändert und was bleibt
| Ändert sich | Bleibt wie gedreht |
|---|---|
| Both soldiers: face, hair, age and build | Every line, crouch and hand on the shoulder |
| Their tunics, taken from the cast photos | The trench, the smoke and the framing |
| Only the people you give a photo to | Period grade, timing and the recorded sound |
Beispiel-Setups
Background to principal
Shoot the trench action with extras who know the drill, then put your principal cast onto the strongest take.
A lead change after wrap
A role was recast after the battle scenes were shot. Swap that soldier instead of rebuilding the set.
A cast per market
Shoot a period series once, then recast the leads for each region it is sold to, from the same footage.
How do I recast the actors in a war scene without reshooting?
- 01
Upload the trench shot
Add one clip up to 30 seconds. For a longer sequence, recast it shot by shot and cut the shots together on the Compose timeline.
- 02
Add a photo per soldier
One photo for each person you replace, dressed the way they should look on screen. Anyone you give no photo stays exactly as shot.
- 03
Name each swap and run it
Ask Copilot, for example: the bearded soldier on the right becomes the man in photo 1, the young soldier becomes the man in photo 2.

Consent and releases
Recast only footage you hold releases for, and use photos of people who agreed to appear. Every example here uses generated people, not real actors.
When to also dub
The recast keeps the original soundtrack. For new lines or another language, run Morphic Dub on the recast shot so the voices and lips match.
Recast or reshoot
Recasting a war scene skips a new shoot day and calling the cast back, and one take can carry a cast per market. Reshoot only when the action must change.
Review it as a team
Keep the source shot, the cast photos and every take in one project, where teammates in your workspace open the same versions and comment on each.
