Re: The Official VA Discussion Thread - Home of David Tennant & Drake Bell Speculation!

Also those that aren't used to dubbing tend to have some heightened inflections. I kind of thought that was Idina Menzel on Elsa in the trailer, but it ended up being her. Levi kinda has that in this trailer. This is totally Mandy Moore though.

I feel that both of them where even better in the cartoon than even the movie. They really evolved their sound as voice actors and I feel like that'll serve them well in this game. There'll just be a weird line here and there.

Known & Speculated KHIII English Dub Actors

So, I thought to keep track of what actors are definitely coming back to voice the characters in the game, as well as the most likely newcomers, so I'll divide this between the OCs for this game series, the returning Disney Characters, & the new characters. Some I'm, not sure if they've been confirmed, so help me out if you know. Some of these I speculate, since some aren't confirmed yet, but will most likely be in these roles. These are, mostly, based upon what we've heard in the trailers & have gotten confirmations on.


I've also posted this list to KH13.


Returning OCs (original characters):


Heroes:
Sora: Haley Joel Osment
Riku: David Gallagher
Kairi: Alyson Stoner (Hayden Panettiere confirmed she hasn't been called in, so Stoner's the next best pick).

Re: The Official VA Discussion Thread - Home of David Tennant & Drake Bell Speculation!

I moved your thread because we have a very exhaustive VA thread already.

But, for the record, Tetsuya Nomura's said that the Master won't be in KH3 and Ray Chase hasn't recorded for him.

Then, what was the point of setting him up in Union X?

Because he's still an influence in KH3. Xehanort inherited Luxu's No Name, which the Master of Masters attached his eye into in order to see through the Keyblade, even through time, which Xehanort may have been taking advantage of. It may have also influenced Xehnaort into doing what he's doing now. A part of KH3 is also the search for the Master's black box, which has....whatever inside. Hopefully a spring-loaded pie, because the secret box being an elaborate, nearly universe destroying prank would be hilarious.

Also, also, the Master of Masters may or may not be the next arc's big bad.

That's true also he just retweeted KH Tweet on the Big Hero 6 cast announcement.

Anyways, I dunno if this is considered KH voice actor related or not, but three days ago, Chris Edgerly (voice of Cid in Final Fantasy VII: Advent Children, and Kingdom Hearts II) posted a tweet on Twitter on bringing his son on doing a voice work session at Skylark Sound Studios.

I'm not sure if this is for Kingdom Hearts III, cause the studio has done for a couple of projects outside of Kingdom Hearts such as some Final Fantasy games (Type-0, World of Final Fantasy, Dissidia Final Fantasy, etc..) or small projects (e.g toys, LA Spanish dubbed films) at the studio. So who's to say what it is, it could be KH3 or some other project at Skylark.

Re: The Official VA Discussion Thread - Home of David Tennant & Drake Bell Speculation!

So the trailer came out and we got to hear our first listen of Demyx and Davy Jones in the game. Is it really Ryan O'Donohue voicing Demyx or a different actor? Because I'm on the fence if it's really him or not since he hasn't been doing acting for a while, the same can be said about Davy Jones, I dunno if it's Nighy or a sound-alike actor. Please don't let it be an awful sound-alike (shudders on KH2 Scar flashbacks).

For those who want to hear what Christopher Swindle will sound like as Sully:

Thanks for the share and wow really impressed on how Christopher does a good job voicing Sully and sounding very close to John Goodman's performance.

Re: The Official VA Discussion Thread - Home of David Tennant & Drake Bell Speculation!

I keep listening to Davy Jones, and idk, I think it kind of sounds like Nighy. Need to keep in mind he’s gotten older since he played him in the movies, so he probably sounds a little different. This is probably me just praying it’s him, he did Disney Infinity, I’d hope he’d come back for this.

That's one thing, it will still fall down on his scheduling and availability, cause he still doing films and just recently he was on Ordeal by Innocence for the BBC this year.

So let's wait and see for another Square Enix press release cast announcement or when the game comes out.

As for Demyx yeah I'm on the fence if that's Ryan as I watched his boss fight from KH2 and compared it to his KH3 voice so either it's the same actor only he got older or they got a different voice actor for him.

Re: The Official VA Discussion Thread - Home of David Tennant & Drake Bell Speculation!

Master Xehanort’s new voice is atrocious. It sounds like a younger guy trying to imitate an old man....which it probably is

I highly doubt it’s Mark Hamill lol
He's liking tweets about being asked if he's voicing Master Xehanort and it does actually sound like him.
