James Earl Jones reitres as the voice of Darth Vader

James Earl Jones, who for decades has provided Darth Vader’s iconic, menacing voice, will not record new lines for new “Star Wars” projects.

Instead, Jones’ voice will live on artificially through an AI program that can recreate his voice, so Vader can deliver new lines of dialogue and maintain the commanding bass sound that made him a widely feared villain, Vanity Fair reported.

Ukrainian startup Respeecher was tasked with creating a version of Jones’ voice
as it sounded in the original trilogy for the recent Disney+ miniseries “Obi-Wan Kenobi,” which takes place several years after Anakin Skywalker becomes a Sith lord.

I know how late this is... but I loathe them using his voice like that.
