Dub Cast Speculation


It was recently announced that Discotek Media will be recording their first ever new dub for Lupin III: Jigen's Gravestone. With Discotek never having done a dub before, who do you think they will cast?

I'd prefer it if they used voice actors that have previously played the roles. My favorite casts have been the Pioneer/Geneon dub cast and the Woman Called Fujiko Mine dub cast, which combined the usual Funimation cast with voice actors from the former.

Michelle Ruff, IMO, should be the only choice for Fujiko.

Richard Epcar should definitely be involved. Since Jigen is the main focus of the film, and he played that role so brilliantly in the Geneon dubs, Epcar seems like the logical choice. However, since he did such a brilliant new take on Zenigata in Fujiko Mine, I'd also like to hear him reprise that role. Especially since all the former dubbers for Zeni seem to be dead or retired. Chris Sabat has also proven to make a competent Jigen.

I'd be equally pleased to hear either Sonny Strait or Tony Oliver reprise the role of Lupin himself.

Thoughts?
