One obstacle to replacing actors with CGI- their voices. Whoever voiced Tarkin did a good job, but I can't recall how closely he matches Cushing. Some actors have such inimitable voices that no one could do them justice. I've never heard anyone do Bugs Bunny like Mel Blanc did. There was an animated Batman movie where the actor did a really good impression of Mark Hamill's Joker, but you could still tell it wasn't him. Good thing he's still with us!
Read a rumor that Disney is creating a "phonetic library" of James Earl Jones' voice, so they can have him play Darth Vader long after he's gone.
