A serious question about “It’s Tough to be a Bug”

[DisLemur]

Given the recent allegations against Kevin Spacey, is there any word from Disney if Hopper is going to be redubbed (If that even is Spacey’s voice and not a voice double) in the attraction? I know it’s a cameo appearance but considering Disney has removed references to Cosby in Hollywood Studios (who has never voiced a character or been featured in any major Disney production), I was wondering especially considering the nature of the allegations if Disney had any plans.

I seriously doubt it. 99% don’t even know it is his voice even if it is

Cosby had a head statue. Very obvious to remove that

It’s not Kevin Spacey’s voice.

It’s not Kevin Spacey’s voice.

You beat me to it.

I believe in the show he is voiced by Andrew Stanton.

I didn’t think it was. I mean it’s not common that the original voice actor for a character reprises the role in an attraction, usually because either they’re too old, dead or money issues. I think only within the last 15 years it’s become more common. For instance I’m pretty sure Cam Clark is the voice of Simba in Festival if the Lion King (He also voiced him in Timon and Pumba, singing voice in the direct to video stuff and I’m 90% sure he also voiced him in the Circle of Life film at Epcot). The only times in recent memory I recall original actors reprising their roles were for Toy Story Midway Mania and Frozen Ever After.

I was more concerned about the amazing Hopper AA. It would have been a shame if it was “retired” because Spacey is an actual bug.

They can’t even get hopper to work. Is he still missing? I’d say zero chance.

Cam also recorded for Festival of the Lion King...And most of the time when Tom Hanks can't voice Woody his brother Jim will do his voice...

Yep it's Andrew Stanton in the show and I believe a video game.
