Trey Parker and Matt Stone's deepfake production company just got a $20 million investment

that replaced star Peter Serafinowicz’s face with that of… a certain former president. Parker and Stone had plans to use Deep Voodoo for a whole feature film in which wacky, humiliating stuff happened to… that same former president, butthey admitted that the timeliness of that gag had passed and that there wasn’t really much point in keeping it going.
