This TV Tropes page claims that there was a reason Billy Zane didn’t reprise his role as Ansem in future games.
To sum it up, he starred in this really controversial movie that was blasted as being “anti-American propaganda” or something, with all the actors who appeared in said film, including Zane, being heavily criticised for it.
I’m personally not entirely sold on this theory due to one thing that doesn’t add up; the fact that the movie was only released one month before KH2’s American release (by which point surely all the voice recording would have been finished).
Thoughts?
