I am *so* relieved to hear there will be real actors on the voices. A great voice actor can sink an animation… or make if soar. Time to check imdb to see if these two have been in any English subtitled movies / shows. :)

@Blendiac: A film called “Zwartboek”, directed by Paul Verhoeven, should be an international film, not by knowledge but judgement, they both play along, you can try that…

@Blendiac: I believe that film is directed by Paul Verhoeven, if I’m not mistaken, it will probably help you find it easier…

Great! It will be a great movie, I am sure. I hope we will also get the filmed performance of the voice actors when the movie will come out.

amazing,

A blender movie with their voices, I always the DWDD (a very popular program in holland) and Haline almost always
sit there.

Over two years par example johny depp as a voice for a Open movie Project

Again, just amazing.
