What kind of contract did they get him on? He's gotta be the most expensive VA in the whole series. They couldn't afford to keep cool dude Billy Zane, but Woods even pops up in that cell phone game.

Too bad, he's a massive piece of shit in real life. ....I really wish KHIII didn't have Olympus Colosseum so that way, he wouldn't have gotten a paycheck.
Then how come Billy Zane stopped doing Ansem after the first game? I thought he did alright for the role.
Ah, blacklisted.He starred in a film with Anti-American sentiment in the early 00s.
James Woods is the man. Love that guy. Enjoy his Twitter account as well. I hope he continues to be in KH as well as many other games. It seems like the acting days(the best ones anyway)are well behind him.

Literally exactly what I was gonna say.
Read his handle, though

All the Disney voice actors have the right of first refusal for all the characters they voice. So, they have to offer it to him before anyone else. Same goes for all the characters.
Not a Disney character. The Right of First Refusal is for the movie voice actors.Then how come Billy Zane stopped doing Ansem after the first game? I thought he did alright for the role.

His Twitter account is entertaining in a "crazy can't believe this dude thinks like this" kinda way. I never knew about it recently and then read and said, "Man, this guy goes hard for Trump". He's definitively a true believer.
I was shocked. I thought he was liberal for ages.
didn't his agent or agency dump him recently? not particularly D-list but doesn't surprise me he'll take up any VA gig
The mobile game doesn't have voice acting, last I checked. He's also not in 358/2 Days or Dream Drop Distance
But he does love the character so much that he does the voice at every opportunity.
Pretty sure this isn't all accurate. I'm not fully caught up but I definitely haven't heard voice acting in X...What kind of contract did they get him on?

Yeah I was pretty sure OP was wrong there. Especially since there are a few games with barely any voice acting or Olympus is completely absent.A lot of times when the original actors don't return, it's not because of money, it's availability. James Woods just makes time to voice Hades whenever he can.
Incidentally, he's not in Days, DDD, or X.
The HD Re:coded cutscenes in the 2.5 collection have him doing the voice acting, but yeah, he's not in ALL of them.
Billy Zane was apparently dropped because he was blacklisted for doing some anti-American film or something like that?
Really blacklisted for that? Pathetic, I need to look up more on this though. I'd understand blacklisting for Phantom, but this is a step too far.He starred in a film with Anti-American sentiment in the early 00s.
