Computer graphics will replace a living lion on the logo of a popular film company

As it became known, the film company Metro Goldwyn Mayer decided to replace the lion in its logo with a digital analogue. Now

The studio's mascot will be created entirely in "computer graphics" form.

Company representatives said this changeassociated with an increase in video resolution, writes The Guardian. At the same time, initially the new screensaver was supposed to debut in the new James Bond film, No Time to Die. But due to production problems related to the COVID-19 epidemic, the new logo will be seen for the first time in the Channing Tatum comedy “Dog.”

As a reminder, the lion has been MGM's mascot since 1924. Since then, his role has been played by seven different animals, but each of them had the same nickname - Leo. The Last Beast has been the face of MGM since 1957.
