Yes, this mask technology has been in use for years. However, the clip with Emma Watson is a fake. You can't just pull off a mask and have perfect hair underneath!
It almost looks so fake that you wonder if it is intended to be easily "debunked." The more interesting interview is with that woman from like 20 years ago. I wish I could find it. I think she was working with the CIA. They had really unbelievable masks at that time.
Found it. See below. It's a quick couple of minutes.
The video is more recent than I remembered but the former CIA "Chief of Disguise" person narrating is talking about the technology they had decades ago. "The fact that we are allowed to show (what we were doing a long time ago with masks) tells me the CIA have moved on. I don't know what they are doing now. I shouldn't know. I'm dying to know."
Thank you! I would imagine deep fake imagery using computers since the vast majority of the world doesn't interact with these guys on a day to day basis.
If you don't need to make many public appearances, a stunt/body double for transition scenes is all that is needed between broadcast meetings.
Well ok it is a fake, but doesn't that prove the point that fakes can appear to be legit? Emma looked 100% before the CGI weirdness happened in the video.

I know what one you're talking about -- she fooled someone, can't remember who.
Ghw bush was the guy she said she fooled.
I would love to see that one.

That's because it WAS her. The video merged the real Emma Watson with that other actress...can't remember her name, removing a mask.
I think it was

Yeah...that's the one!
True, though this shows that a deep fake can exist IMO.
Thanks for pointing this out.
