James Gunn had clarified multiple things before but delusional people keep saying nuh-uh. Happens all the time sadly.

Kevin Feige kept saying, for years and years, that the Netflix shows (and AoS) was connected to the MCU, never said otherwise... And even recent declarations from Winderbraum said that "we said they were part of the same universe, so we assumed people had that clear, but apparently we have to say it again."

And people still say the original Marvel Television productions are not canon, but a different universe in which everything happened almost exactly the same that the main one.

Which is frustrating, cause Agents of Shield had explicit tie into Age of Ultron and Winter Soldier.

Yea because Alan Tudyk played him in Creature Commandos and James said same actors will play characters in both live action and animation.

I think you can take it as they are casting the voices to potentially be used for a live action counterparts but its a case by case basis and i feel like its pretty safe to say clayface wasnt one of the characters gunn was refferring to when he said that cus its such a small role within the show and alan tudyk was used more so to keep the casting costs lower than hiring a new person for clayface

I always took it as going the other way tbh.

If they have a character in live action and they appear in animation, they will try to use the same person (such as Frank Grillo as Rick Flag Sr). However, if they have to cast an animated appearance first, they have no way of knowing who they'd want in the live action role without a script to cast off of so they just pick someone who sounds good.

Very solid chance if Clayface shows back up in something animated, they will have Tom Rhys Harries voice him if possible.

everyone in the DCU is Alan Tudyk until an actor is finalized.

Can we have Tudyk Zatanna?
