You're describing volumetric video, but from a single frame rather than multiple capture.
We were pitching this as the future of video about 4 years ago when raising funding for https://ayvri.com - suggesting that we have the data of where somebody was, and what the world was like around them. With a photo or video of the person, we could re-create a complete scene and you'd have a capture of essentially every angle.
Everyone said I was crazy, but what we're seeing with this sort of research, along with 3D scene recreation from a single photo and generative environments, it's definitely going to happen. I was saying it would take 5 years, 4 years ago. I'd say it is still 4-5 years from being a commercial technology.
And no, we don't actively work on Ayvri anymore. The team has moved on (started something new), we were too early. It's a good lesson.
