Yep its so dam sad even worse when you can destroy a whole bar in 2001 mgs2 but in a new game they say you can't do too another bs excuse like redfall recently.

SAG-AFTRA Files Over A.I. Darth Vader In Fortnite

SAG-AFTRA Files Over A.I. Darth Vader in Fortnite claiming this was done without notification and has filed accordingly.

spoonard14d ago (Edited 14d ago )

It's just a complaint, not a lawsuit, and it's completely unwarranted.

Garethvk14d ago

I said filed which they did. Filed a complaint.

VersusDMC14d ago

James earl jones sold his voice for use for Darth Vader after his passing and his estate said they approved it.

So i don't know why SAG is getting involved as it makes it seem like they are going against james earl jones wishes or just wanted a cut...

Garethvk14d ago

They are concerned about A.I. replacing live talent. It's an unusual stance as you are correct; he left his voice and his family approved. The union is saying doing this versus using a live actor sets a bad precedent going forward. The use of A.I. has been a huge issue in the recent labor deals.

VersusDMC14d ago

Well this is also an interactive AI Darth Vader that would have made live talent impossible unless they think a actor being in Fortnight 24/7 is an acceptable solution.

They should concentrate on cases that are possible to be done with live talent and that haven't been given blessing or sold by the original actor(for which they should have the right to sell)

"James earl jones sold his voice for use for Darth Vader after his passing and his estate said they approved it."

I have to say if James approved this after his death... that would be... um...

Do you mean he approved it while he was alive for when he passed?

VersusDMC13d ago

It's reported that he gave permission before his death and his estate(which i asume is his family) says so as well.

spoonard13d ago

Because SAG-AFTRA are trade unions. They are the Hollywood mafia protecting their profits from anything they feel could undermine them. It's all about the almighty dollar, not artists.

Christopher12d ago

James Earl Jones doesn't own the character, though. He essentially said the owners of the IP can use his voice however they wish, not everyone.
