>The Darkwing Duck TV show reboot got a rather curious update from one of the original cast members. This reboot has been in development for years; however, the new update suggests a major change from the previous Disney shows involving the titular character.>According to Collider, Jim Cummings will not be part of the reboot as his role is being recasted. This news was confirmed by Cummings himself in a red carpet interview for the recently released Coyote vs. Acme.>The voice actor said, "I did a pilot for it several years ago to see the viability of it coming back, and everybody went nuts. And they are bringing it back, and they're hiring somebody else to do Terry McGovern's role of Launchpad, and they're hiring somebody else to be Darkwing Duck. I hope they get…everything they deserve. Crazy, I don't know what to tell you.">Cummings had voiced Darkwing Duck for over thirty years. The voice actor provided vocals to the Disney character in the original series, which ran from 1991 to 1992 with 91 episodes. Moreover, he returned for the DuckTales reboot in 2017. Here, Cummings voiced the character Jim Starling. In the DuckTales series, Starling acted as Darkwing until eventually becoming the villain Negaduck.>Moreover, prior to the news of the recasting, Cummings also provided his voice for the test pilot episode of the upcoming reboot. The news of the recasting has also marked the end of Cummings' journey with the character.What else do we know about the Darkwing Duck reboot show?The Darkwing Duck reboot show has been in development at Disney+ since 2020. Seth Rogen and Evan Goldberg were set to executive produce the reboot through their Point Grey Pictures production company.https://www.yahoo.com/entertainment/tv/articles/darkwing-duck-reboot-tv-show-224017304.html
>>155271099It has been 6 years this shit is never coming out.They should have just done the Ducktales spinoff which actually had a plan for what to do instead of this trying to force this to work with changing concepts because Seth Rogan is attached.
if Didney really cared about making cartoons this would had been in production after Ducktales 2017
>>155271099For a second there I thought it said he was dead now.
>>155271835I cannot scroll past a picture of an actor or creator anymore with my heart stopping for a second.
SQUEAKY WHEEL GETS DA KICK!
It sucks, but I saw it coming. As with CDRR, the real benefit to seeing this actually materialize is if we get a complete collection of the old series out of it.
so they're going to get a celebrity to voice darkwing like they did with garbagetales 2017?
>>155271099Jim's not even trying to hide his anger at being recast.
>>155271099Why don't they just use the Ducktales Reboot guy?
>>155271099WHO THE FUCK CARES!? STOP FUCKING REBOOTING SHIT!
>>155271099>Seth Rogen and Evan Goldberg were set to executive produceThis right here is why this Darkwing Duck reboot was bound to be unforgivable garbage. Remember what that Jewish bastard Seth Rogen did to Chip and Dale Rescue Rangers. That movie was so terrible it wasn't even worth pirating and same to Rogen's Darkwing Duck no doubt.>>155272177>Why don't they just use the Ducktales Reboot guy?Because no one except retards wants more Feminist propaganda shit.Look fellas, if you were born with a dick ALL Disney staff, executives, animators, etc fucking HATE you. Stop giving your money to Disney because you're stupid.
>>155272179I’m glad we got spared from the live-action Gargoyles reboot at least.
>>155272400>Remember what that Jewish bastard Seth Rogen did to Chip and Dale Rescue RangersMade a movie that redeemed itself solely with fan rage?
>>155271099this just in: I won't be watching it>>155272137I took that more as like, you know how when southerners say "bless your heart" what they mean is "you have trouble tyin' your shoes, don'tcha"
Why the fuck is Rogen handed all these projects?
>>155272726Because he became a big name celebrity nerd somehow. Same reason Kevin Smith keeps getting handed shit.
My, how times have changed..https://youtu.be/xKlot5KcFAg?si=MRxp-9Yat1JxNJBv
>>155271099Jim Cums
>>155272179You also say their original stuff is shit
>>155271099It's a reboot. Cummings is being very unprofessional about this whole thing. The guy is well off as far as western voice-over artists go, and he still gets work. The fact he even has enough pride to speak so brazenly is proof that he isn't "in the trenches" or whatever.
>>155274806You sound like an asshole
>>155271099>I hope they get…everything they deserve.damn
>>155274806Bootlicker who has to defend inhuman decisions for no reason
>>155271099Who will bring more blackash, this or beanmouth Gummi Bears?
>>155272726He used to be cool, just like all the shit they're trying to reviveunfortunately the same flaw also exists: nobody remembers how to be cool like it used to be.>>155274806'I hope they get what they deserve' is only hostile if you think they deserve bad things. he spoke very carefully, as a good christian man ought to. just like Mista J, the only guy in history to answer a question about taxes and not come off like a jerk or a liar.
>>155271099On the one hand, he’s getting old. On the other, he can still do Darkwing and Pooh without issue, and these new reboots don’t last more than a season or 3 anyway.Disney (along with most of the other media conglomerates) just hates creatives having any kind of power or authority over characters. It’s honestly the Steve Whitmer/Kermit thing again. Disney wants total control and to not have to negotiate with someone. Ironically they’re devaluing their own product line they did with Muppets.
>>155271099It will join the likes of nuTales and Tiny Troons University.Shitty reboots that I will never watch.
>>155271099He's gotta be like 90 right?
I've been watching a ton of Pixar slop lately, and these sequels are basically unwatchable because they won't replace these voice actors. Joan Cusack is this old as shit mummy woman voicing a teenage girl doll? This goddamn Incredibles cast is so fucking ancient sounding but the characters look exactly the same... it's jarring! Just get new voice actors when the actors voice ages, or age up the character design to match the voice. Clinging to these voice actors on principle is making for worse movies
>>155272137Definitely understandable, he helped create the character and he still holds a lot of affection for the role. He's not hurting for roles, but it still must be rough >>155272400Chill dude, he meant the voice actor. Not the writers.
>>155275581This is why you do a maximum of three sequels a few years apart then move on to the next property. You only have to worry about people being too old when shit is done decades apart, and when you don’t move on to newer properties.
>>155275641I know no one cares about zombie Rick and Morty, but they swapped Roiland out with some random soundalikes, and it's fine. Beats watching modern Simpsons where it feels like you're a party to elder abuse. Just fuckin swap em out already! IF* their voice is shot, of course, some voices don't age, it seems like.
>>155273638heheheh
>>155271835SHUT UP
>>155272137Nor should he
>>155271099I thought they wanted to do a spinoff based on that one 2017 ducktales episode.
>>155271099I wonder if he'll do the voice more or less now during the podcast
>>155277021Guess Disney couldn't stand that cocky latina.
>>155277547podcast?
Reminder that Cummings, shockingly, has politics slightly to the right of James Woods
>>155271099Ate they still going with that multiverse?
I don't want anymore new cartoons. Just gonna watch the originals and be happy.
>>155271099Cummings is going? I’m on-no-ing
>>155275123Beanmouth Gummi Bears for sure only for chuds to pretend that they care about the Gummi Bears.
