Alternate response: Sadly, no actual voice actors from the Water Tribes were available to take on the role.

it sounds like the stereotypical voice for mocking an indian person >_> though Apu has been around for a while so I suppose said racists could specifically be trying to go for his voice.

Key does a pretty crazy Indian accent.

It sounds good to us, but not to an Indian. There's also the whole India being a really really big place and having about as many accents as England.

I find Jordan to be the better actor of the two typically but Keegan is definitely a master of accents.

She actually said recently that she'd turn down the role if they do anything more with the character because she feels it should be a PoC.

Not sure how I feel about it tbh. If you really want it to be accurate, you'd need an Inuit actress and I'm not sure how many of those are around.

I don't necessarily think it's a bad thing if you voice a character that isn't accurate to who you are, but I think if the "guilt" is put into the right place, it's mostly about giving PoC more opportunities in the industry.

the whole person of color bit annoys me. If you have an iconic voice for a character why bother changing it to fit a certain race? As others have pointed out, without Phil Lamarr Samurai Jack would have sounded wrong. Same with Cleveland Brown, Naruto being voiced by a woman, Bart being voiced by a woman, and even Darth Vader being voiced by a black man, despite the character being white.

It shouldn't matter, as long as the voice matches the character. Nowadays you could have someone who is perfect for a role but because of appropriation they will get turned down. Which is why I've always loved South Parks voice acting, even as a comedy.

He was apparently voiced by my boy Giancarlo Esposito in the Harley Quinn show.

I think as long as the voice fits the character, it's fine.
