I think that's also why they didn't get Johnny Depp and Orlando Bloom for KH2. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
baylaust 2,531 Posted January 28, 2011 Christopher Lee is a big actor, so I'd imagine that: A. He's busy, and doesn't have the time that the other actors do to record his voice. B. He's more expensive to hire for each of his performances. Also, Corey Burton is a really good voice actor too (ex. Zeus is God of War 2 and 3). He just has the task of imitating Christopher Lee, which isn't exactly easy to do. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

He plays Count Dooku in pretty much every Star Wars game, and The Clone Wars tv series. Count Dooku is another role Christopher Lee is famous for.

CardCaptorDeadpool 386 Posted January 28, 2011 If I'd have to say it must've come down to they could've had Lenard Nimoy as Xeahnort or Christopher Lee as Ansem. Also Im fairly certain Johnny was willing to do the game but he was just to busy! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Exlon 165 Posted January 28, 2011 Yeah, I noticed the voice was different too. I mean, if we never had Christopher Lee, I guess I wouldn't mind this new guy, but...yeah, we DID have Christopher Lee, and he did awesome. Oh well. At least we had him for KHII and Days, right? (Re:CoM too?). Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

TerraRedeemed 255 Posted January 28, 2011 He was busy, same thing with Johnny depp. the latter was busy with at world's end at the time of the game's voice casting i believe. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

J. Severe 1,137 Posted January 28, 2011 Quote Christopher Lee (Days and KH2) Burton (BBS and Re:COM) Seeing as I've yet to play BBS or Re:CoM, I guess I haven't heard Corey Burton's voice yet. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
thatrandomdude 0 Posted January 28, 2011 you also have to look at the fact that Christopher Lee is 88 years old. as much as it pains me to say this, a man who could keel over and die at any minute can only do soooo much. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
rikunobodyxiii 700 Posted January 28, 2011 While I don't have anything knew to add to this thread, I would be stupid to not stop and say that Christopher Lee as Ansem the Wise/DiZ is some of the coolest voice acting in Gaming today. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Which is why in the Star Wars movies he played Count Dooku in, they had to hire someone else for the fighting scenes, and then use a computer to paste Christopher Lee's head on the other guy's body.

They wanted to return but had to ironically play the characters in the sequels Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
