PlatinumGames has shared an official assertion in regards to the latest voice appearing controversy with Bayonetta 3.
The scenario has been creating over the past week, however issues started after Hellena Taylor – the unique voice of Bayonetta – posted a collection of movies explaining why she isn’t returning for the third entry. She claimed that she was initially given “an insulting provide” to reprise the function, and this was solely bumped as much as $4,000 after reaching out to PlatinumGames.
In the meantime, Bloomberg reported this week that Taylor was truly provided between $3,000 and $4,000 for at the very least 5 periods. The outlet says Taylor requested for a six-figure payment and residuals, which finally led Platinum to pursue a brand new voice actress. Whereas Bloomberg claims Taylor was later provided a cameo and would have been paid for a single session, nothing got here from that.
Jennifer Hale, the brand new voice of Bayonetta, issued her personal assertion as properly. After acknowledging “each actor’s proper to be paid properly”, she requested for individuals to “resolve their variations in an amicable and respectful approach.”
As for PlatinumGames’ assertion right this moment, right here’s that in full:
We at PlatinumGames provide our sincerest appreciation to everybody who has contributed to creating the Bayonetta collection through the years, in addition to the group that has served as its basis.
We give our full assist to Jennifer Hale as the brand new Bayonetta, and align with the whole lot in her assertion.
