Big s Posted February 11, 2022 Share Posted February 11, 2022 I had a feeling that someone would start that boycott talk. They do have that voice actor in disenchantment, so I can’t see the major problem getting him for this project Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The actor knows the fans want him back, the network knows the fans want him back. Each side is trying to see how far the other will go. Normally these things work out but it is a tricky balance.

jenius Posted February 15, 2022 Share Posted February 15, 2022 This was a show I always found amusing rather than funny. I think lots of people could do Bender justice... guess I'm not a big enough fan for me to see this being a hang up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So it would be hard to have the Bender of the original series in the Revival and not be voiced by him. There is some interesting things they can do with a recast, but that is not what the studio is banking on. It's all about nostalgia and staying in the past.

It just wouldn’t be the same. And he has that iconic voice that you know who it is even though it’s just a voice. From things like Adventure Time to Disenchantment and even newer shows like Inside Job, you hear his voice and know it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Big s Posted May 19, 2023 Share Posted May 19, 2023 I’ve been rewatching both Futurama and Venture Bros. So glad both shows are coming back.
