On this day in 2014, Big Hero 6 launched into theatres across America, wowing fans with a tale about a friendship and the strength of heart. To celebrate, Square Enix have announced some of the voice cast for the world.
Returning from the movie and animated Television series include Ryan Potter as Hiro Hamada, Scott Adsit as Baymax, Genesis Rodriguez as Honey Lemon, and Jamie Chung as Go Go Tomago. Khary Payton, who voiced Wasabi No Ginger in the Television series, will be reprising this role in Kingdom Hearts III.

Interesting enough nothing about Fred va
Awesome! The news just keeps coming! Maybe they’ll announce Mandy for Tangled’s anniversary this month?
I’m also curious about Brooks Whelan’s absence as Fred. Surely, if the other parts are cast, he is too? Game has to go gold within the month, so they really need to get on that if he or whoever else hasn’t recorded yet. Makes me wonder if they got T.J. Miller back but don’t want to announce it due to his controversies. But it’s hard to believe they’d even consider using him at all unless they legally had to offer it to him first and he accepted.

I hope so. It's getting tiring knowing that it is Mandy but having people constantly tell me to shut up because it isn't confirmed.

It'd 100% be Brooks but his omission here is questionable. I can't imagine Fred not having a speaking role, so they are either holding off for a second round of BH6 announcements or they will throw his name onto a general announcement.
i would think they announce in a general va list becase they already annouce zachery and donna names already and they would be indulceded in the tangled anniversity

It's possible, but they could justify a specific Tangled one if they revealed a bunch of currently unrevealed characters. They could include Clancy Brown (Spongebob Squarepants, Detroit: Become Human) as King Frederic, Julie Bowen (Modern Family) as Queen Arianna, Sean Hayes as Pete the Guard, some of the Snuggly Duckling characters too.
Same with Big Hero 6. If there's Aunt Cass, Alistor Krei, Professor Callaghan then they may justify a second specific voice cast announcement. But again, the issue here would be revealing a bunch of characters that haven't been revealed, if they were in.
Will be sweet to hear their voices in the game. They've done a solid job in the series.
Oops! someone misspelled Hiro's last name.
rip Hiro's last name. was misspelled too soon.

Yeah I think Mandy is worthy of a standalone announcement if she’s the only Tangled VA left to announce. Lol. They also might announce another group of VAs around when or after Ralph Breaks the Internet releases. They could announce her, Santino Fontana, Brooks Whelan, Bill Nighy, possibly Jodi Benson and John C. Reilly if the summons will have battle quotes, and more of the KH OC voice actors.
Excellent! Great to see the full cast returning. I love seeing Khary Payton in Kingdom Hearts as well, he’s one of the finest actors alive today.
Couldn't they just re-edit the page to include Fred's VA and fix Hiro's surname? From the looks of it things were overlooked when writing this.

They just re-uploaded it with Hiro’s name fixed!

This is why people are supposed quadruple check things and have like 5 other people look it over before posting it to a mass audience xD
Yamada, the smudge on the box art for The Story So Far. I'm looking forward to the IGN watermark on the cover art for KH3~

i love how you call them out about this spockanort
I do it only out of love and in jest. Also because I live my life as a trash memer
Wow this is exciting to see 4 of the original actors from the film and TV series (Ryan, Scott, Jamie, Genesis) reprising their roles in the game. Also, I expected Khary to voice Wasabi again given that his original actor (Damon Wayans Jr.) was either busy but didn’t want to do it. It’s interesting that Fred wasn’t in the list but I’m expecting Brooks Wheelan from the TV series to voice him again.
Hopefully we get another cast announcements for the other batch especially regarding if Mandy Moore is coming back to voice Rapunzel.

I don’t think they are going to bring in T.J. Miller back given that he’s been getting headlines and controversies since last year and early this year (e.g. Sexual Harassment, Work harassment allegations, getting arrested) so I’m expecting Brooks Wheelan from the TV series to take his place.
Regarding his absence I’m not sure but I have a hunch that aside from the Big Hero 6 TV Series and SNL he doesn’t have too much recongnizable big roles in film and television, which is why Susan Egan (Megara) was not listed in the first batch.
Interesting enough nothing about Fred va
Realistically I’m expecting Brooks Wheelan to voice Fred again in the game instead of T.J. Miller as the later has been getting a bad reputation lately. As to why Brooks wasn’t listed it’s more than likely he doesn’t have too much recongnizable big roles in film and television aside from Big Hero 6 TV Series and SNL.
It'd 100% be Brooks but his omission here is questionable. I can't imagine Fred not having a speaking role, so they are either holding off for a second round of BH6 announcements or they will throw his name onto a general announcement.
Perhaps it’s because Brooks doesn’t have that many big roles in film and television aside from Big Hero 6 TV Series and SNL, which the same can be said about Susan Egan not being listed in the first batch and instead have her announce her reprisal through social media.
TJ Miller just confirmed his involvement via responding to the questioning on Twitter.

Yeah read the post and tweet from the thread. But I’m not expecting him to be listed through Square Enix press release due to his actions he’s been getting lately just to avoid bad publicity so it will be just like with James Woods, he will reprise the role but won’t be credited in promotional material

You know, at this point I wouldn't be surprised if Johnny Depp was reprising Jack Sparrow. We'd be fucking 3/3 with that.

Wait, who was first?
I’m excited so many of the original voice actors are returning for the game, it’s going to make it feel so much more genuine. Although I wish the circumstances surrounding TJ were better.
james arnold taylor did jack voice in kh2
It could be Johnny Depp as Sparrow, it sounds too much like him...and they announced Gibbs, who we haven't heard at all, similar to hearing Hades and not having James Woods credited in promotion yet. My money's on Depp.

Oh, my comment was referring to the 3 douchecanoes who would be in KH3 in the event that Johnny Depp reprises.
We already have 2 of them: James Woods and T.J. Miller.

I am, my friend. I speak from the point of view of those that do believe in me sometimes. ;)

I agree, while the cadence and voice might be similar to Depp I can tell that's a sound-alike actor voicing Jack Sparrow. On top of that aside from The Legend of Jack Sparrow game Depp hasn't been voicing Jack Sparrow in any of the more recent games as he only portrayed him in the Films and some park appearances.
So more than likely it's Jared Butler who's voicing Jack Sparrow

I hope y'all realize you've completely missed the point of my comment.
On a slightly separate note, it's a shame that Daman Wayans Jr. no longer wants to be affiliated with Wasabi.

I DO get you point of your comments especially on what you said here:
| You know, at this point I wouldn't be surprised if Johnny Depp was reprising Jack Sparrow. We'd be diddlying 3/3 with that. |
And Here:

You're betting/expecting that Johnny Depp could be in the game and joining the likes of James Woods and T.J. Miller as they have been getting bad publicity as of late which you said as "the 3 douchecanoes".
And that's fine I get the gist of the joke, I'm just am saying that I don't think that Johnny Depp is going to be in the game because he hasn't been voicing the character in most of his video game appearances (except for The Legend of Jack Sparrow)

And yet discussion of a topic that was not being questioned still continued.
Although now I realize my reply was misdirected at you at not goxotim since he was the one that derailed the thread so for that I apologize.
by the way sign i get the joke was trying you were saying we could deep since we got two douches now and sorry i tried to delraed the thread

[FONT=verdana] I'm very excited to see Khary Payton coming back to voice Wasabi from the TV series and he does a good job playing Wasabi. Tbh, I expected Khary was going to voice Wasabi in the game if Disney/Square Enix are unable to bring Damon back.
I think the likely factor Damon Wayans Jr. didn't come back to voice Wasabi is perhaps he has been busy focusing on his other projects and his comedy shows and I don't blame him as he currently is starring in the show "Happy Together" on CBS. It happens all the time with most actors who provide the voice for the Disney characters in the Kingdom Hearts games:'
1. Sone of them will come back to reprise their roles (e.g. Aladdin, Ariel, the Cast of Mulan (minus Eddie Murphy and Miguel Ferrer), Jack Skellington, Pumbaa, Tron, the Cast of Frozen, etc..)
2. Others are 50/50 (All comes down to scheduling, availability, cost, illness, etc..)
3. Some don't do side projects which result in bringing in a sound-alike in place of the original actor (e.g. The voice actors of Simba, Scar, Mushu, Woody, Buzz Lightyear, Sulley, Mike Wazowski, The Hunchback of Notre Dame actors (minus Victor and Hugo), Jack Sparrow, etc..)

Wait, did Damon W Jr just not come back, or did he actually say he didn't want to be associated with the character any more?

The former. He hasn’t returned to voice Wasabi since the movie.

Okay, cool. I am super fed up with the assumptive, hyperreactive nature of fanbases right now.
This voice cast news makes me happy, but I think I may need to take a break from my gaming communities for a while.

Definitely agreed. I thought he was great in the movie. Sad to see him not returning.

Khary has stepped into the role of Wasabi and done an excellent job in making it his own. It is a shame that Damon won’t return but personally, Khary is more than capable of giving a stellar performance, and one that fans will love.

Tbh, when it comes to the original actors who voice/portray the Disney characters in the films and their involvement if they appear in the KH games it comes down with the following:
[FONT=verdana]1. Sone of them will come back to reprise their roles either because enjoyed playing their character or Disney Character Voices was able to get them back (e.g. Aladdin, Ariel, the Cast of Mulan (minus Eddie Murphy and Miguel Ferrer), Jack Skellington, Pumbaa, Tron, the Cast from Frozen, Hamm, Rex, Stitch, Baymax etc..)
2. Others are 50/50 (All comes down to scheduling, availability, cost, illness, etc. Some will come back others don't want to do it due to conflicts.)
3. Some don't do side-projects which results in bringing in a sound-alike actor in place of the original (e.g. The original actors of Simba, Scar, Mushu, Woody, Buzz Lightyear, Sulley, Mike Wazowski, The Hunchback of Notre Dame actors (minus Victor and Hugo), Phil, Jack Sparrow, etc..)

Indeed, saddened Damon Wayans Jr. isn't returning as Wasabi, but I wish Khary the best of luck when he voices Wasabi in Kingdom Hearts III.

Uh, I don’t think Leaferian wrote that post in response to anything you said. It was Alpha Baymax who asserted that Damon no longer wants to be affiliated with the role, and it was that stance that Leaferian questioned. I really think this had nothing to do with what you write / copy and paste.

I actually prefer Khary over Daman after seeing this, he gives Wasabi more personality outside of being neurotic.

Yup, this.
Your response wasn't on my radar, Dizney Birds.
And this is a relatively minor example, anyway. It's just been an annoying day I suppose.

Sorry I jumped at you It's just I tend to misinterpret comments that are posted after my posts as criticism at me which isn't the case and it's difficult recognizing these cues.
