Jason Biggs recast as Leonardo. Seth Green to replace him - Page 19

*CyberCubed* · 06-17-2014, 04:21 PM

Mark Hammil retired from voice acting cartoons, besides he's too busy with Star Wars.

*BubblyShell22* · 06-17-2014, 04:25 PM

Wow. Guess it's been confirmed now. I'm glad Green is voicing Leo. I loved him in Family Guy, so I think he'll do a good job as Leo. Yes, Biggs was good in the role, but I think a lot of us saw this coming. Too bad it's not Dom, but I'm okay with Green in the role.

lol Already started after the last episode. Gah they need to just go there with it if Seth plays the voice a little lower. Let Leo's brothers tease him on it, work it in like that then it's golden. (And adorable.)

*ToTheNines* · 06-17-2014, 04:30 PM

Sad.

I hate recasts... but Green is a good choice, at least.

*BubblyShell22* · 06-17-2014, 04:30 PM

I'm okay with Green replacing Biggs. I think he'll do a good job. To be honest, as much as I enjoyed Biggs's work as Leo, I was never a big fan of him. However, I've never really had a problem with Seth Green, so I'm on board with this.

And as for his Tweets, he does it for attention, and when we talk about it, it makes him feel good to know that he's gotten our attention. The best way to remedy that is to ignore what he says. Don't follow his Twitter page, and then you'll be fine.

Yeah but hope springs eternal. Besides, I never believe an entertainer when they say they're retiring - blame it on Kiss's eighty thousand farewell tours.

seen this on tumblr...

yeeeeaaaahhh....thats a little unprofessional for an actor. kinda ruins the moment for the girl, unless she doesnt care and finds it funny, still.. bigg's is a bit of manchild dumbass and should act more like an adult. i'm sure seth knows when not to act like a total dick.

*Warhorse* · 06-17-2014, 04:46 PM

Poor Leo, what's the chance of you getting your voice actors booted in both your TV show and movie in the same year.

Damn, and I was hoping the show would have a skit where Splinter asks the boys what happened a pie that was sitting on the counter, and Leo just lets out a whistle. Stuff like that would go completely over the kiddies heads, but it would have been funny.

But Seth has a good voice, been a fan of him since Enemy of the State, He'll do alright.

Yeah

Maybe I'm silly for thinking that way, but with a rather honorable character like him who's been around for 30 years, at that point I feel the guy kinda deserves suitable voice actors who can appreciate who they're getting the honor of lending a voice to.

(There needs to be a TMNT three fingered facepalm emoticon. lol)

Ha! I could totally see them doing a sly puberty reference...

Leo: You guys are late for training!
Raph: Hey, I think Leo's voice finally stopped cracking!
Leo: ...shut up, Raph.

...and then just move on.

Sighphi · 06-17-2014, 04:58 PM

If Biggs got fired for how he acts Seth is going to be out double quick.

Oh cubed, you're such a kidder.

I've enjoyed quite a lot of Seth Green's work (though I got tired of Robot Chicken very quickly) - I'm sure he'll bring a lot of fun energy to the role.

Maybe he's trying to beat Raphael for having the most actors voice him. But, he's got a few more roles to go.

Ruin it for the girl? You mean Mae Whitman (April)....

*Shark_Blade* · 06-17-2014, 05:03 PM

I wish him the very best.

*blindturtle02* · 06-17-2014, 05:11 PM

Green should do well. I've not seen him playing any serious roles sans Oz in Buffy, but after listening to that I can picture him doing a decent Leo. I doubt he'll sound as moody, however. Hopefully he'll stick around and we won't have to worry about a 3rd voice actor taking over later on! But yeah, I can get on board with this. I'll miss Biggs though.

Pretty sure Mark just retired as Joker not from voice acting altogether. And yes, I'd live to hear him on TMNT!
