They should just bring in James Woods to be Hades, god damn.
Also, I don't think Ariana Grande has the right voice for Meg.
I'd love if James Woods returned, but Disney wouldn't want to deal with the bad press.
Would it be bad press? James Woods helped produce Oppenheimer and no one cared. Conservatives like him, and even leftists liked his Hades, going as far to headcanon him as Meg's gay best friend.
>James Woods helped produce Oppenheimer
He had absolutely nothing practical or real to do with the movie that was made this year.
At some point, he or some production company he owned/was directly affiliated with, had the options or write to part of the source material used to make/write or other was integral to this year's film. Thus, when the option was picked up by the people who did the actual 'producing' on Oppenheimer, due to contractual language or what not, Woods gets a credit.
You can bet when the time comes at either the Producer's Guild or Academy, if the flick wins anything, that there will be three producers up there to accept, one of them being Rovan who did the actual work, one will be Nolan who will want to hog the credit especially if he loses as Director, as will likely happen, and whomever the frick Nolan is currently married to today will be the ones on stage to accept
Disney's decisions are not based on bad-press or PR repercussions. Absolutely zero concern for them.
Disney Corp have been driven by agendas for the last 5 to 12 years, and don't care about their products being better or (shockingly) if it costs them hundreds of millions.
This is not conspiracy but cold hard legal fact, so much so that regulations are being used to require disclosure of their corporate intentions to investors, in order not to mislead them.
So unfortunately Disney's agenda leaders just don't like James Woods, and that's why they won't bring him back.
>Ariana Grande has the right voice for Meg.
Who does?
Liz Gillies
The Nickelodeon sitcom Victorious was what made her big, she can act.
I'll look her up since idk who tf that is.
All I had to do was hear literally two seconds of her singing voice to agree with you.
Good ear on ya, Anon
She was part of Victorious alongside Ariana Grande. She is also her best friend.
In the show, the girl plays a character named Jade that is basically a more violent version of Meg. Same sarcastic personality, hostility, somewhat toxic love life, etc.. She was easily one of the most entertaining parts.
Are they still making Greece be filled with weird modern stuff and pop-culture references?
The film had its problems but that isn't one of them.
It's main problem is that it's essentially a Superman orgin story with the Hercules name on it.
>KJ Apa top choice for Herc.

This actually sounds good

Why does it look like Vegas?
That's a trick question.
Gonna make a burnt offering to Zeus later today to insure Pain and Panic are animated using real-life puppetry and not actual-hellspawn cgi. Also lol-ing thinking about whatever actor they choose for Herc having to rock a weaklet bod pre-Phil Training a la Steve Rogers in the first Captain America movie.
How about they replace Pain and Panic with the actual Pan as a minion, and say Eris or whoever
Out of all the liberties, having a guy named "panic" always bugged me
Photos (Panic), Deimos (Rout or retreat), and Eris (Strife) were actually Ares kids in the mythology.
The film isn't terribly accurate anyway.
Phobos* damn autocorrect
>Disney is going to make its 1000th remake that will obviously flop
>Blackwash its white cast in a European setting
>Change the original meaning and morals of the film
I would ask why they keep doing this dumb shit, but everyone already knows why...
Aren't they white
KJ Apa is a hapa
Close enough, looks white enough like the Rock
Ariana Grande is Italian
Terrone aren't people.
Most of them have Greek background of varying degrees and there are even two Greek-speaking minorities (one in Calabria and the other in Puglia) that have been there since the days of Magna Grecia. ffs, the defacto capitol of the south is Napoli, was literally a Greek settlement with a Greek name. By race alone, Ariana is more or less fine to play a Greek.
That's the reason they are so good at stealing.
*ensure, my b
His promoting Jersey Mike's would be bizarre enough on its own, not exactly being the embodiment of the spry, friendly, hollow-smiling spokesperson-archetype or anything, but I caught a commercial last week watching college football where the sub shop's PARTNERING with Illumination's Migration in order to capture the synergy with DeVito, and, like, what? Is this the first time a whole-ass food-chain has partnered with a movie their spokesperson's playing a part in? It's just a weird alignment of circumstances to me.

>Not hoping they use their shapeshifting powers to fuse into Pandemonium^(TM); Disney+ show coming next Fall!
Whatever they call them, they're going to massacre them, aren't they? If so, I hope they do it right, giving them their own lame-ass song, maybe one about how terrible it is doing Hades' chores, feeding Cerebus, etc.
I thought DeVito was dead, how old is he now, 150?
79 and still doing sandwich commercials.
frick!
Isn't James Woods even older than that?
76, thought he was younger than that.
>implying that Danny DeVito can ever die
He will bury us all, anon.
Italians live for fricking ever
I wonder how many zoomers are going to screech about Megara being a loose girlboss and thinking Disney changed it when she was always like that
Whites don't mind it because she was tamed by dick in the end.
>Has a fricking song of her breaking that part of her down.
Arianna Grande is incapable of coming off as smart or savvy.
they ditched michael b jordan?
After black Ariel they know their limits
He was never cast or even seriously considering, given that he's pushing 40s. Cinemaphile just has a terrible habit of seeing leaks about studios looking for an "X type" actor and immediately assuming it means the actual actor has been cast.
Ever since Elon started paying blue checkmarks with ad revenue, you've seen a rash of transparently fake ragebait "rumors" meant to get viral. It's not limited to movie shit, either.
Do people like pain and panic? They were always forgettable to me. They exist so Hades has someone to interact with.
I like them because I like Bobcat Goldthwait and Matt Frewer. I think if they were voiced by someone else the appeal would instantly leave.
They are funny, but seems like a characters from Looney Tunes instead of a Disney movie.
Isn't Ariana the female celeb who has cheated on literally every single person she has ever dated her entire life? I always get female celebs mixed up because they're all the same fake, plastic, basic b***h.
So, you are saying that she's perfect for Megara?
kill me
>Ariana Grande is the top choice for Meg
WHY THE FRICK CAN YOU NOT FRICKING CAST AN OLDER WOMAN AS MEG, YOU FRICKING ABSOLUTE GODDAMNED FRICKING MORONS!?
WHY IN THE ABSOLUTE SHITBOX ARE ALL OF MEG'S CASTING CHOICES YOUNG WOMEN?
She didn't seem more than couple of years older than Herc in the movie.
>Ariana Grande
Can she act? I don't think I've seen her in anything.
Wasn't she the one in that Jim Carrey TV show where he's Mr Rogers? Admittedly, if it was her, it was only in one episode and most of her screen time was just singing.
Where is the outrage from the left that these roles are not being represented by Greek actors?
By their logic, shouldn't Greek characters be played by Greek actors?
