The face of the man in the lower left has been replaced with the face of Dicaprio. You can see that there is no sense of incongruity in the cigarette holding even if the face changes, and it is not just a simple composition of the photos. According to Allan Xia, who tweeted the movie, it took less than 8 seconds to create this deep fake video from a single photo.
Just because it is not pasted, the facial expression is completely different from the loaded face photo.
There is no seam in the synthesized part, and if you look at it without knowing anything, the quality is as if you were thinking of a “cosplay reproduction movie by a fan?”
The name scene “Romeo who greets Juliet in a suit as a bride in the church” seems to be played by a man who doesn't know at all, not DiCaprio.
Even in dark scenes where the face was almost invisible, the face changed firmly.
