If JEJ granted voice rights, then that’s peachy. Nobody owes someone else that job. Sounds like JEJ locked it down.
The idea that actors are required to be hired is kind of nonsense. Every industry has had to deal with less people required to produce the same amount of output. At this point, JEJ voice of Darth Vader IS Darth Vader. I can understand the studio wanting to retain that. Replacing voice actors is often jarring for the viewer.
Did they train something on an actors voice, or use the actors voice recordings without contractual permission?
OR:
Did they use an AI voice and some filters to make the character talk without hiring an actor?
Because if it’s the second, who cares? If it’s the first, they should be raked over the coals.
There was that one guy who got charged $60k in late fees at blockbuster though.

My brother is one of these idiots, I dunno how they got him. He’s not part of the militia group but dipshit thinks a local radio tower that just went up is part of the weather control system…
As is their right. His estate, or him personally, doesn’t matter.
