WHY These Popular Characters Were Recast
These 5 popular cartoons recast main characters, how many of these changes did you recognize?
Most recently, Jimmy Pesto of Bob's Burgers was changed. Bob Belcher's rival was recast after Jay Johnston was tied to the events of January 6th and Eric Bauza took over.
Justin Roiland found a lot of scandal last year. He was recast in Solar Opposites and Rick and Morty, with 2 separate actors now taking over as Rick and Morty.
Then there's Gumball. Turns out there are challenges with having a main character who is always 12. Gumball Watterson had 4 voice actors in 6 seasons, which is wild.
Family Guy's original Meg, Lacey Chabert, wanted to focus on school and other projects, letting the legendary Mila Kunis jump in to the billion-dollar franchise.
Finally, the Genie from Aladdin! Robin Williams of course was the iconic FIRST genie, but disputes about the marketing of Aladdin had him recast in everything else by Homer Simpson, Dan Castellanta. #shorts #nickelodeon #rickandmorty #bobsburgers #memes #funny #weird
