Hi I need help adding a celebrity to a project I am producing? Celebrity has passed away recently but he did agree to be on the project.
Hi I need help adding a celebrity to a project I am producing. Celebrity has passed away recently but he did agree to be on the project. How can I prove he was to be on it? I have a zoom recording saying he was, he is on our show's website as well. Any help appreciated, thanks.

Will, this celebrity be named in a particular role in the actual credits sequence within the movie itself? That's mainly what matters, but if would be a "(credit only)" situation if the none of the decedent's work is represented in the movie.

Hi Jeorj,
Yes, the celeb agreed to the role but sadly passed away before the shoot. Do we put "credit only" on our IMDb and the ending credits sequence?

Ian: For clarity, in most cases if someone signed on to appear in a film or television project, but died before they could perform their role, I would expect to see them credited under a heading like "In memory of ..." or "Dedicated to ...", which on IMDb would be listed in the "Thanks" section of the credits.
It would be fairly unusual to see the person's name in the main cast listing if the person had not actually had the opportunity to perform a role.
