Something that actually interests me is that Bioware has never really worked with the Celebrity Voice Actor Squad

Wait, Troy Baker doesn't count now? Is it because it was before he became mainstream with TLOU or am I missing something?

Yeah you did kind of ignore Troy Baker playing Kai Leng

Oh God he played Kai Leng? So, uh, that raises another question. People have been (I thought pretty justifiably) all over Naughty Dog for casting Laura Bailey as a Black woman twice. But are there actually, like, any minorities IN the VA union?

I would assume Khary Payton's in there. Phil Lamarr too. Cree Summer.

And various mixed race folks, I believe.

The fact that I, well-known VA enthusiast, kinda have to wrack my brain to think of prominent minority voice actors is pretty indicative of the problem

I mentioned Todd Haberkorn in a different tweet, but do you happen to know is SungWon Cho (ProZD) is union? I know he did a voice for Radiant (good show by the by) recently, so I'd suspect so, but I don't think I have any way to confirm it.

I wasn't aware that either of them were union, since Haberkorn at least mostly does anime and other dubbing, which I've understood to be primarily non-union, though I could be mistaken.
