— which was released in 2000 and remains the most successful stop-motion animation of all time — has accused producers of ageism for dropping her from the much-anticipated sequel .
"The reason they gave is that my voice now sounds ‘too old’ and they want a younger actress to reprise the role," said the 51-year-old, who was 30 at the time of the first film. "Usually in these circumstances, an actress would be given the chance to do a voice test in order to determine the suitability of their pitch and tone, I however was not given this opportunity."
"However, they stated 'We will be going ahead to re-cast the voice of Ginger'," she noted, pointing out that her dismissal came before it was announced that the second lead character of Rocky — who was voiced by Mel Gibson — was being recast as well, again with the reported reasoning being that his voice was too old.
They can cast whoever they want, she doesn’t own the role.
They don’t need to recast her. She’s just bitter.
Just grasping at straws while losing a gig, not a social phenomenon.
I wanna watch a 2 hr movie of just chickens running.
Chickenrun should be voiced by chickens
Aww.
First world problems, would you like some cheese with that wine?
So, who's gonna voice Ginger now?
Awwww T^T Wtf.
So neither of the iconic voice actors? What’s the fucking point. Makes it seem like one of those shitty TV movie spinoffs
Ageism is so racist
Not watching this now since they decided to remove one of the original actors
Yup. This town is alllll about doing that.
Will they be race bending?
Similar to what happened with the Scooby Doo reboot? When they didn’t cast Lillard and the original cast.
Lmao you guys are to old get used to it get new actors simple as that u just tryna get a quick check
🤣😂
Her saying that makes me feel old. I'll pick up my 401k on my way out. whispers: it's ok if she sounds old. Build around that. People love original actors.
It's probably because it's been 20 years and chickens only live 5 to 10 years on average.
This is not fair they are great!
NitPix you seeing this shit?
I think there’s more to this that the producers don’t want to touch on. I don’t buy the “sound too old” excuse, but in 2020 I can completely understand wanting to distance Mel Gibson from a children’s film. Why Julia becomes a casualty of this is what I don’t understand.
be sure to sign the petition
Everyone so desperate to find a way to be discriminated against
The same thing happened to John Bellis when he was originally gonna voice 'Thomas the Tank Engine' in 'Thomas and the Magic Railroad', cause he sounded 'Too Old'. All I can say is they better not replace Julia's Brittish accent with a Canadian woman pretending to be British.
Who really cares, if your old your old and they need people who have a voice, no one cares about race or age as long as they sound good and if they dont to bad.
It should be played by a real chicken.
I’m confused why they’re giving “too old” as a reason. It just makes them look bad. It’s obvious that Mel Gibson is being recast because he has a terrible reputation. I imagine they just had someone more famous for Julia’s role or someone closer to the producer/director.
Blah blah blah, spring chicken joke, blah blah
Should be voiced by an actual chicken anyway
If you didn’t sound young enough then i don’t blame them for dropping you
But she is old.
My kids and I watched this recently. My 5yo daughter liked Ginger the best. She is a feisty, strong female leader and we need more characters like her in movies. letgingerstay
This will not be tolerated 😡
Well...y’all can keep it then
The sequel is looking dope
Only chickens can play chickens now, humans can’t do it as you will be stealing real chickens jobs.
'In partnership with Netflix' means I won't be trying to watch it anyway. Ageism is against the law and ha ha ha ha ha 100% unenforced and no one cares sorry. That's what come of only caring when it's fashionable.
Apparently how this works now is you need to be the race/species of the character (which is racist whoever thinks it’s not Is stupid) so hire a real chick before CLM comes and gets you
All chickens voices matter. Cast a young chicken.
That’s clucking awful ChickenRun
Meanwhile in more important news...crimesagainstchildren childtrafficking wayfair wayfairtrafficking
If Julie Kavner can still voice Marge then no one's too old to voice their character!
identity politics finally come home to um, roost
That’s the point of being a voice actor. You’re playing a fucking part. I can’t deal with this current climate.
Bet they cast someone big or known
Come on we all know the age thing was just an excuse. They are recasting to get a bigger name in the role.
Smh, they could use chickens.
Suddenly, Saffron found something she could agree with Edina on.
Not a good idea. As Ginger says in ChickenRun 'What are you doing? How dare you! Let go of me!' No, wait! Babs, please! Stop it! Wait! Stop! Stop it! Something is wrong here. Can't you \rsee that?
Shouldn’t we get chickens to voice chicken characters?
Sweetie darling, put Saffy back in the role she was meant to play.
I remember seeing Chicken Run, since I first watched Wallace and Gromit: Wrong Trousers years before this. But never knew there is a sequel coming soon, but the actress who played the main character gets to be discriminated by the producers for her age.
“Ageism”? Really? Actors need to understand that their casting vastly changes as they age. can’t play the same roles forever. Roles I played years ago I can no longer play and I’m 100% fine with it. Don’t be silly, this should be obvious.
If they don’t keep her they should take Misskeeleyhawes ❤️ Both are around the same age though. This issue seems more about sexism than ageism though. Voices don’t age dramatically but in general, roles often call for new actors to continue the age of the role.
You mean like a reboot of Dora the Explorer, and Boots being played by same voice actor all grown up? 🤷🏻♀️😂😂
Pretty disgusting that they aren't using real chickens, they're taking jobs from the chicken community. ----- Also, this is art and the director is the artists and they can choose who is suitable for the role, end of.
I'm sorry but if you doing a sequel you have to have the original cast members. I guess that's a film I won't be watching it's a shame because I really Enjoyed the first one.
That does seem kinda sad but at the same time I don't want Mel Gibson back so....
It happens. Imagine the voice actress for snow white or cunderella trying to voice act their roles again? That doesn't make sense.
I love chicken run so excited! ❤❤
Fowl play! That’s not a poultry matter especially when there is a Pullet Surprise on offer!
Headline: woman didn’t sound right for role, proceeds to complain about it 🥴
WhO fuCkInG cArEs
So there was a sequel?
Get a fucking grip love you’re old you’ve been dropped it happens in every walk of life get over it🤔😂
It wasnt because she was too old, it was because there were protests from FACA (Free All Chickens Alliance) who wanted a real hen to get the part. They said humans were misrepresenting poultry. They also want to defund Bernard Matthews!
The first movie was made in 2000? Exactly why does she feel like she's owed the right to play her again? If they want to recast an actor, they have the right to do so. It's done all the time in voice acting. This is the dumbest drama I've seen in a long time & ageism is fake. 🤣
She should make a statement where she's 'stepping down to allow a chicken actor to play the role'. That's the thing everybody is doing these days, right? Actor aren't allowed to 'act' anymore, because they have to literally be the character that they're are portraying.
Why is this considered news?
U wot? She's probably younger than everyone wot remembers Chicken Run. Absolute tossers, they be
Good. They should cast solely based on their aesthetic vision of the film, not to appease someone’s feelings. By that fact, James Earl Jones sounded awful in Rogue One and Lion King (2019) because of his age. You can hear the slower inflection, slurred wording, and voice strain.
If the job is based on your voice/looks/aka physical components then there is no discrimination. Ageism is real and can be seen with forced retirements or discrimination based on age in lieu of talents but THIS AIN’T IT.
Caddicarus
no one wants to hear an old hen voicing a claymation chicken. old people creep me out with their liver spots and occasional incontinence. i for one am proud to be an ageist. OkayBoomer
TodayILearned Mel Gibson voiced a character in Chicken Run. And I knew NOTHING about it until now.
Well I think we should all go out and march. This is blatant ageism. agematterstoo
Not too bright of them to admit it, but since the president is openly racist I guess a studio being openly agest seems normal.
The problem wasn't 'sounding old', the problem was the incessant demands for dried prunes and knitting yarn to be delivered to her dressing room.
That’s definitely ageism.
This is Pretty Fair Discrimination by Competence to me. I will say I have not heard said voice to judge for my own. But If You are Hired to Play a Relatively Young Voice Actor, & You Don’t Sound Young, What Makes You Think You Deserve the Role? Ahh Entitlement.
This movie TERRIFIED me this movie made go vegetarian
Chicken Lives Matter 👊🏻
This is literally in an episode of Better Things with pamelaadlon
The old chicken flapper tale😟
THERE'S A SEQUEL
Why dont strip clubs have 60 year old pole dancers?
Ooooh
we got digital de-aging for faces but they can't do a simple voice modification?
Lifes a Chick
Didn't know there was gonna be a sequel
That doesn’t make sense. If they’re using the same character she voiced before, it’s fairly obvious Ginger would have aged to by now?
Chickens should only have chickens voice act them anything else is discrimination against animal rights.
I think the bigger thing here should be 'why is there a sequel in the works for a 20 year old movie that doesn't need a sequel?'
Well the first one was like 20 years old, so who would even notice the cast change?
ginger would have aged since 2000?
As long as the chicken isn't a black trannie, this is discrimination.
Wow. Imagine that. The creators of the film have a vision and want to pick who they have in the film. Shock.
First thought that came to mind was the office episode
that's harsh.
Of course she will say that. She would of really liked that cheque but unfortunately there’s between TWENTY YEARS between the first movie and it’s sequel.
Sure it will be like The Tigger Movie. Awesome film, but sad what happened to it's original actor
they call it talentism in my case - If they are not buying it - they are not buying it 🤷♂️
It's obviously a chicken coup d'etat
FUCK THE WHOLE MOVIE THEN
TonyTodd54 20 years since that movie came out wtf say something now
But thats why it's voice acting, if you sound too old then thats it. It's not ageism lmao, it's about how well the voice fits the character,
Eggstordinarily !! ...not a word about appropriating chicken culture
Zzzzzzzzzzzzzz
Omg...me me me, safe zone, micro aggression, blah blah blah, why can't it just be that you sound old? Stop taking things so personally
Chickens should only be Voiced by other chickens.
Nigga ageism?!?
Fair enough, if she's old and sounds shit, find someone else 😂
ageism is thing? So just add ism to any word and act offended lmaooo
Cast REAL chickens to play the role! The oppression must end!
'Julia Sawalha, who voiced Ginger in the 2000 original, has hit out after learning she was getting the chop alongside Mel Gibson — whose character Rocky is also being re-cast'
Ageism? Now I think I’ve fucking heard it all, give me a break. I hate people 🥱.
I don’t understand kids these days don’t know this movie so you might as well make this film for the adults that say the film as a child 🤷🏽♂️ keep the same cast fuck it
Hey I remember liking that movie.
Well you are too old
Chickens are being murdered every day, yet in Hollywood they are further erased by having human actors portraying them for 'entertainment.' This is erasure This is appropriation We see you and we will fight back Cluck Cluck Hollywood Chicken Actors Lives Matter!
And?
Guess we're canceling Chicken Run 2 now before it even had a chance. 2020 is wild.
Chicken run is getting a sequel? Why? Theres no reason for it. There was nothing left to wrap up. Just because something is popular doesnt mean we want more of it. Chicken run was fantastic no sequel needed. Dont ruin a good thing by adding to much
Can't they just pull the Shaun The Sheep route?
Chicken run is 20 years old so even a 20 year old voice actor's voice would chance in that time maybe its not your age but the quality of the voice , you are the voice not the actual actress in the movie. maybe I'm wrong if so please enlighten me
Harlequin_x
The ever growing list of victims in this country is tiresome. Like, let BlackLivesMatter have a goddamned moment before the WhatAboutMeToo shit. (Not trying to virtue signal, just sick of the non stop whining)
then dont sound old lol
It's not ageism, you no longer fit the part. I know it sucks, but it's not bigotry.
Wait it's getting a sequel?
If that the case then there shouldn't be sequel then since the original voice actor can't be in it.
ridiculous. If the voice actor sounds fine, why get someone else?
Hey, could have been for sounding too gay, sounding too black, being a high talker, being a low talker... If the producers need specific talent for their project they do what needs be done. Too bad she can't just accept that her voice is changing and can no longer do the part.
Well is she a chicken.
All I would want is for her to at least get a voice check. Let her try. If she can still do it than why would you want a voice that sounds different.
ageism? what
should have laid off the smokes
Ageism doesn't exist, what?
They need a more Plucky voice cast
A G E I S M . I've heard of racism, sexism, but judging someone for their very AGE is just being a dick.
Shouldn't she be more outraged that they didn't hire a talking chicken for the part?
1. Wtf is this bullshit? 2. This movie doesn’t need a god damn sequel. 3. If you’re not gonna let the voice actors back, don’t use their fuckin characters.
Age is just a number
All I can think of while reading that is 'there's gonna be a sequel?'
Corona_9000
It’s actually cos they needed to employ a real chicken, due to complaints that actors are not allowed to act anymore
Whaaaaaaaaat?!!?!...you get old and don't get as much work in Hollywood?how can this be?!?!
And.i thought it was called casting for a reason.
and the article uses a picture of Rocky because why?
So many people don’t understand mise en scene lol
New Rules: Only Trans can portray trans Asian portray Asian And only Chicken can portray chicken
Why isnt mel Gibson mad about this
Wack
The world is a fucking joke lol. Your voice ages as you AGE. Wow.
OMG, yet another -ism word from the looney whiny liberals.
How about if nobody asked for a sequel in 20 years we probs just don't need one
It's gonna be shit anyways, besides if they were smart enough they'd age up everyone and it'll make sense why their voices sound old.
Cast a real chicken you monsters
She does realise it's been 20 years right? I'd understand if it's only been a couple. But 20 years is a long time and they have a right to recast their films if they're going for a certain sound/feel etc. I highly doubt she even had a contract for a sequel since it's been so long
First Mel is dropped for being an anti-Semite, then Julia is dropped for being too damn old? They really want this movie to tank, don’t they? I’m telling you, these chickens is disorganized.
Slippery slope. Actors can't be recast because of age now?
Dodged a bullet Julia !! First one was shite
She still sounds the same too. I bet Mel Gibson didn’t give a fuck because he’s rich
The children that were born the year this movie came out are now old enough to drive and vote. There's your problem aardman.
How is that ageism? She should know how the industry works and the original was released 20 years ago! She isn’t going to have the same voice she did back then
No one even cared about this movie 20 years ago
A) Not very nice B) Such is Hollywood C) Ageism sucks even for voice roles
Oh ffs. If her voice doesn’t fit the character then it’s totally acceptable. JuliaSawalha1 GET A GRIP!
if Julia isn't in it, I'm not watching
Ah man :(
Is the sequel going to be called Chicken Gallop?
Not gonna bother if it doesn't have the original cast
How old is the chicken? U cant have an old person play a young chicken. What they really need is an age and sex appropriate chicken 2 play the chicken. Im sure there’s plenty of chickens out there looking 4 work and the last thing they need is a old white women playing a chicken.
Cancel everybody!
The entire movie was recast. This is a nothing story and fake news.
Of course the voice is going to age after 20 years.
I love Chicken Run....but it doesn't at all even need a sequel
How many chickens could have played that part, she is specist...humans should not be so arrogant as to voice other species 🤣🤣🤣😤😤😤
Or you know, maybe she's not the right actor for the job and just couldn't fit her character.
Thoughts GraceRandolph
She's no spring chicken!!!
Ageism....
So much for this sequel.
So the fuck what espn should of figured that out about Lou Holtz b4 his shifted dentures and slurred speech was forced upon everyone who loves college football
She not a chicken so she can’t play the role
But I thought Hollywood is so caring and loving and liberal
Real talking chickens or nothing! Discrimination will not be tolerated
Oh, this is turning into a shitshow now
I love Julia sawalha!
fr people complain about this shit, its voice acting
Chicken Run 2 voice casting is an interesting hill to die on.
And why wasnt Mel given a chance?
Yeah it's 2020 so why the fuck not
They're making a sequel to Chicken Run? I was like 5 year's old when the first one came out. Now I'm in my 20s. Who the fuck is the target demographic for this film? Don't get me wrong I loved the movie as a kid. But who Eaxctly is this sequel aimed at?
Lol it's been 20 years.
No human should have been playing the role of a chicken anyway...Not in 2020, that's for damn sure...
Are they for real? “Ageism” it was a child’s movie from years ago and they got older so it’s obvious they’re gonna sound different.
If I can be charged more money to see a movie as a young person I think I can demand my cartoon voice actors be whatever age I want.
What we really need is an iron giant sequel
Old people need naps
Wtf?!? I mean, I didn’t care for the movie so I have no skin in the game, but are they LOOKING for more lawsuits
Never liked the character anyway
Is anybody asking why do they think we need a sequel to this story? Just a money grab.
Entitlement on display here. One role 20 years ago does not mean she should get the same role 20 years later.
You can not have it both ways... the reason women voice male characters is because males sound too old. This is getting out of hand.
maybe it's me but isn't that the job of the casting director? To cast voices that they find appropriate?
The amount of disrespect for voice acting in these replies is astounding. The voice of a character in an animated production is what brings all the personality and charm. It also doesn’t help when the character is often based on the actor and written specifically for them.
Ageism 😂😭 everyone is hoping on the bandwagon now
Casting is already a nightmare, thanks 👍🎬
this is not agism issue. this is speciesism issue. why you cast human to represent us
.......is it too late to get a Flushed Away sequel instead?
I guess the phrase 'You ain't no spring Chicken' is the reasoning?
And?
I didn't know who she was but now I hate her.
She should apologize right now for even considering, let alone performing, the role of a chicken. How dare she
Hey I mean tbh she prob dodged a box office nightmare so
Sounds too old? How can you make such a determination when chickens don't even speak English in the first place?
I don't really get it. If it's not a match anymore, it doesn't match lol. Yes it sucks but if they kept her it'd be a KH Re:Chained situation with 14 year old Sora's voice being deep and jarring as hell that clearly doesn't match (though he;s the OG), no?
Have they dropped Mel Gibson?
NO MEL GIBSON = NO CHICKEN RUN FOR ME.
Hahaha 😂 WHO CARES 🤣🤣
Won’t be as good Julia xx
I mean this is normal TF 🤣
is there anyone left in the world who isn’t oppressed, are we a planet of victims, no wonder the aliens don’t come to visit
Oh ffs.
what the fuck is ageism? also she's not even a chicken so how dare she take that role instead of a real chicken.
That’s not ageism... what is ageism? Your voice literally just doesn’t fit the part, I’m sorry you took it personally🤷♂️ it sucks I know but it’s just how it is
She’s no spring chicken.
I've been told that ageism is ok because it's the job of us older people to just get out of the way.
First movie was entertaining. People are recast all the time. Look at Darren on Bewitched.
Hollywood is so cringe. You could be too old for things? That's like someone being 60 and yelling that the NFL wont let them play anymore because of age. She probably lost her vocal strength.
Ageism needs to stop. I don't Blame Ardman, but why?
'Mel Gibson, who voiced Rocky in the original, is also being re-cast.'
how could they not cast a real chicken for the voice acting how absurd
You think they wouldn't have re-cast Mel Gibson bc he's you know anti-Semitic but no it's because he's too old 🤷🏼♀️
Mel Gibson gets to keep his role. How do you 'sound old'?
I mean, people do age. It happens. Didn’t they replace Aang a couple times? And Tara Strong as bubbles? It’s sad but it happens.
Well is she even allowed to voice that character now? After all she’s not a chicken.
Only 👏 real 👏 chickens 👏 should 👏 voice 👏 chickens 👏 blm
So now old ppl can sue for not getting roles for younger ppl?
Rumour is Megan Markle has been approached
Too old?
A voice actor is mad about not getting hired because of her voice?
So get GOAT to play the chicken for free then, and problem solved!
'Ageism' are you serious
...Y'know what, I'm not even shocked anymore. I'm just numb to all this bullshit.
I can see recasting Mel Gibson. He's insufferable. I used to think he had beautiful eyes, now I realize he's full of hate...and alcohol.
Well that makes sense, it's been 20 years since the first one lol. I doubt that her voice still matches the character.
But if the character needs to sound younger what's the problem? She probably is too old
Why have a sequel in the first place?
Chicken run DOESN’T need a sequel
She’s only 51/ I seriously doubt her voice has aged that much
She should gracefully say that a younger, UNKNOWN, talented actor, who is likely struggling to survive in LA, get a chance to land this job. Would be career changing for someone like that. VO world is a small click and hard to break into.
Call me crazy, but wouldn't Ginger just be 20 years older and sound older? Fowler wasn't a spring chicken he was like 80 years old in the first one.
Interesting
They could bring back James Earl Jones‘ old ass for Vader but they couldn’t bring back ginger
But I loved her voice. Plus she’s a great actress period. These producers suck.
And Peter Sallis was voicing Wallace into his 90s very odd. I agree with her and cry bullshit on their stupid reasons
Younger & cheaper , cheaper being the key word
Did she take up smoking since the first one?
I can't believe they have cast humans to play chickens tbh. It's pure speciesism at its worst. CLM
I need help getting a job
I always thought the point in the original movie was that they were supposed to sound old. Isn't one of them knitting at all moments?
If it's the same chicken 20 years later, then the chicken is 20 years older. Ageism
So what?! Its their move and they can do what they want. Jeeeeeezzuuusss
puercos
Ain't Chicken Run without the originals, I wont be watching it.
Cancel Chicken Run in 3....2.......1......lol
I would expect this from everyone else, but not you, Chicken Run
They’re trying to say Mel Gibson is being recast for the same reason? LOLOL Yeah, right.
I’ll take the job 🤷🏾♂️
Hollywood: Do the right thing and appropriately cast this role! This is John Ferguson, of Wyoming, a character actor who auditioned for a supporting role in the first film but was turned down :( lets start a campaign to get him a role in Chicken Run 2! JohnFergzIsAChickenActor
I mean, this isn't really ageism. If you don't meet the qualifications for the part, you don't meet the qualifications. Would they have been ageist if they called Betty White too old to play Eleven in Stranger Things? Nah.
🤦♂️ where does this end
was there a contract involved that any future sequels will include the original voice cast?
I’m ready for my closeup Mr DeMille.
I know, they are probably giving the parts to BLM rioters/protestors. Too obvious! Sue for discrimination.
Hollywood at its most pathetically misogynist & ageist. Could Hollywood’s rampant PSEUDOPEDOPHILIA behind its rampant AGEISM, I wonder?
This is stupid. She aged 20 years, the chickens didnt. Get a real job
Ageism lol
Awww I loved this movie I can't believe they doing them dirty like that
Ageism lol.. maybe makuley caulkin should still play an 8 year old too
This movie was fun to watch as an 8 year old. But I wouldn’t make my kids sit through a sequel (if I had kids)
Shocking.
It's clearly speciesism to have a non chicken voice the role of a chicken anyway.
They got rid of Mel. So they might want to just recast everyone. Also ageism Wasn’t aware that was a real thing people were using...
You really have to wonder how many people actually read the article.
Wallace and grommit the curse of Ageism
She's going full Karen. Never go full Karen.
DenzelScott
This is not good on the producers part. It’s like when they looked at changing HP actors as they were older too!! ridiculous
Mel Gibson is being recast because he's a conspiracy theory racist quackadoodle.
Oh well it will probably suck like most movies do these days
Cocks.
It is possible to have a voice too old to play a younger character. I mean you wouldn't have James Earl Jones voicing Casper the friendly ghost would you?
ANNNNND? SOOO WHAT?!? Be quiet you battle axe!
It be like that sometimes, people get fired everyday, move on tot he next job
Unless she had a contract for sequels she doesnt own the role. She was a voice nothing more
Nobody cares about the struggle for wealthy celebrities to be cast as animated chickens. Literally nobody.
'chicken hit'?
This sounds like an episode of BetterthingsFX
Please tell me ageism is a word you just made up?
Last I checked producer can choose whomever they want and feel that is right for the job. This isn't a story, it's dumb sensationalism. GO AWAY.
This is just weird and stupid
Maybe she should have taken her voice acting career more seriously and not smoked cigarettes most of her adult life.
What ageism? Cartoon characters don’t age. Unfortunately humans do! They want a young voice. If the actor can’t sound young, they’re out!! How is that anything but casting
A bigger question is .... does 'Chicken Run' really need a sequel? It's sad that ageism impacts voice actors, too. Ageism sucks.
Them battery hens are old at one year and usually exterminated. Wouldn’t make any sense to have a one year old human to voice them .
Honestly I hate animation sequals when they have different voice actors. You can always tell.
So? That’s a legit reason. It’s a cartoon.
So now producers aren’t allowed to re-cast characters for sequels? Did the actors have a contract binding them to the sequel? This is brutal.
How about we just dont do a sequel because this movie really doesnt need one lol.
Lol
Age isn't the issue here. They should have casted real chickens to voice the chickens.
Ageism!!!! Cancel It!!!!
20 years does that
ageismmatters
If that's what the makers think a decide that their shout PC off. That's life, I know I wouldn't make it if I went for modeling contract, get over it...juliasawalha
Bart and Lisa still sound great and the people who voice them are in their 60’s.
This confuses me cause all these clay chickens sound like British grandmas and grandpas.
If she sounds too old for the role than that’s fair. How dare she try to take that role from someone who sounds younger
Give us grandma chicken run my body is ready
They shouldn't have made the first Chicken Run, let alone a sequel. Let it die, please. It was the creepiest movie, I had nightmares as a kid (and adult).
Who gives a shit!?
I understand she is bitter when acting jobs are scarce now due to pandemic. But they have every right not to rehire her. she is not entitled to be in any sequels thats not how it works. maybe they want a celeb with box office pull? Thats a valid reason in itself.
They need to cast a real chicken or they’ll be boycotted by the chicken coalition.
Have to say this is quite disappointing. By the sounds of things a lot of the other former members of the cast might not be invited back if the issue is their voices sounding too old.
Sorry this happened to her when dropping off a resume to work part-time Tim Hortons lady called to bring picture ID & my SIN when I went there next day lady looked me over she was stumbling with words told me she had hired someone I believe it was my age
Probably just pissed she's missing out on a pay cheque.
The truth is probably not ageism, more that they want a more famous actress.
Even Craig T. Nelson and Holly Hunter returned for Incredibles 2
I agree, should be able to do the same voice
Disgusting and shameful!! SHAME ON THE CASTING TEAM Ageism
