    Is it just me or are voice acting and acting two different skill sets not every actor has? Love to be wrong but I am not sure it will translate well.

      Many of the original cast are regular voice actors in games and animated series. I have zero worries in that regard. They were an extremely talented crew.

        Here I am worried the animation won’t be able to catch some of their facial expressions that really added tremendous depth to the characters.

      Alan Tudyk will just have to stand in for everyone else as well, he already voices every 3rd Disney character.

      And I would absolutely watch it.

      I mean, they are different skills, but the cast of Firefly is pretty heavily stacked with people who do a LOT of voice acting. I don’t think it’ll be an issue.

      Like, name a recent Disney movie that didn’t have Alan Tudyk in it.

      They are different but do feed into each other. When voice acting for a character, actors will be on camera, and they will be acting the part while talking into the mic. Animators will incorporate a lot of the voice actors’ mannerisms, facial expressions, and motions into their final product because it makes the animation much more life-like. Its more than just sitting blankly in front of a mic.
