Remember that little stunt back at Coachella 2012 when Snoop Dogg performed with a holographic Tupac Shakur? Well, that was only made possible thanks to Digital Domain Media Group, which has also been behind a number of special effects in films. They even won an Oscar for The Curious Case of Benjamin Button. Even so, none of these ventures panned out well enough as the company has now filed for bankruptcy. Looks like the business of holograms didn't exactly bring in the big money fast enough.

Brace yourselves: In the wake of Tupac's surprising and widely-discussed "holographic" performance at Coachella, there are now plans to bring another famous celebrity back from the grave to rock once more. Brace yourselves again: It's Freddie Mercury. Really though, neither of those things should be a surprise.
