![]() | New Voice of Mickey Does anyone know who will officially take over as the voice of Mickey Mouse? Maybe it's out there already, but wasn't sure. |

![]() | Re: New Voice of Mickey Far as I know, nothing has been announced. I believe they had already begun the search before Mr. Allwine's untimely passing.

![]() | Re: New Voice of Mickey I don't know anything about Mickey's new voice, but I have to wish whoever it is the best of luck. I'm sure he'll never read this, but those will be difficult gloves to fill!

![]() | Re: New Voice of Mickey Yeah, they haven't officially announced anyone yet, although I'm sure it's being discussed. On the one hand, I'm scared to find out who it will be - will they be 'good enough' for me? Can they be? - but on the other, I hate the idea of leaving Mickey to sit around for months with no VA. But Disney has always been low-key about the casting of its classic characters - I hope their choice now is as thoughtful as they've been in the past.

![]() | Re: New Voice of Mickey Have you ever heard Walt's original voice of Mickey? He was hilarious. He was the official voice until the 1940's. |

![]() | Re: New Voice of Mickey I might be wrong, but i wouldn't be surprized if Disney had at least a couple "back up voices" for their major characters (Mickey, Minnie, Donald, Goofy), so their probable "official" voice is more than likely already narrowed down considerably, for any of those characters. |

![]() | Re: New Voice of Mickey Since they'd presumably be getting someone to take over mickey on a long term basis(read: as long as they can possibly do it), Disney has every reason in the world to be practical about this and not rush into a decision. They have enough stock audio of Wayne to fulfill any short-term needs right now. |

![]() | Re: New Voice of Mickey Mickey's voice is used within the theme parks from time to time. Mickey Mouse Clubhouse has already been mentioned. Square-Enix has given King Mickey more visibility and has more Kingdom Hearts projects in the works.

![]() | Re: New Voice of Mickey This. And it happens a lot more often than you'd realize, because in addition to DLR and WDW, Mickey turns up speaking English at Tokyo and Paris fairly often, too - even occasionally at HKDL. So yeah, Disney needs a new Mickey - but they've been pretty protective of these characters, and whoever they choose will almost certainly be expected to carry the role for the long haul - so the thing takes time. And personally, as much as I want a new voice, I'm glad they weren't just sitting there ready to whip out a new name. It would have felt really disrespectful.
