Can someone give a quick breakdown of this situation. Was it really just as simple as the money people not wanting to pay him as much as the other VAs?

He's quite funny in Disenchanted. In the latest season, he basically does Bender voice for a character

  • Disney/Fox negotiated with each actor separately
  • They signed everyone other than DiMaggio
  • Futurama revival was then announced. Likely hoping pressure will be on DiMaggio to return
  • Negotiations continued
  • They seem to have now signed DiMaggio
Anything else in regards to who is getting paid what is speculation I believe

Absolutely not! Billy West voices like a bunch of characters.

Yes. But that was related to getting paid what he believes he is worth and not taking whatever they offered just to be part of the project.

The MGS2 vampy! All Im saying is that Benders voice is the most recognizable. Probably why he tried to leverage on it

I just found out that DiMaggio also voices King Zog in Disenchantment. Dude's got a way bigger range than I gave him credit for.

he also does Marcus Fenix in Gears of War

lmfao, how could you not realize that? It's essentially the same exact voice as Fry's Dad.

I wouldn't have realised Wakka or Kimahri (FFX) were him if no one pointed it out. I'd have picked up on Jake and Zog, though.

I don't know all of his roles. I knew he was bender, so voices that sound mostly like bender, like Jake the dog, are easily recognizable. I had never known that he was Marcus or zog or Fry's dad because that low gravelly grumble voice is just very different from his Bender voice.

Yeah

It can be hard to differentiate him and Steve Blum sometimes though when they're both good at the rough gruff grunt voice

For the record, DiMaggio was not declining to come back because he wanted more money than everyone else. Apparently, he was trying to push for more money for the entire cast.
