With the untimely passing of both the great Chikao Ohtsuka and the legendary Leonard Nimoy back in 2015, the role of Xehanort as been left empty. So I ask, who do you all believe should be chosen to replace these true legends and take up the mantle of hammy villainy? In any other case, I would give my own choice but I cannot for I believe that these two titans are irreplaceable.

I think this guy would be fitting for the role

yes they are  and thats the problem with a lot of actors today I mean we get good new actors yes but thats just it they are good no Titans who were born for every role they play

Frank Welker could voice Master Xehanort since he also voice Galvatron in the Transformers animated series who was voice by Leonard in the animated film.

Take all of their old voice clips and sample 'n' splice 'em up until we have some new lines /shot

I agree with you Deadpoolio, Xehanort's voice shall never be the same! No one will ever be able to do justice to the role as Nimoy did! I can't say for Ohtsuka since I never viewed Japanese scenes of the Kingdom Hearts series, but from what I've heard, he sounds like he was pretty great too!

 

There's one actor that I've mentioned a lot before that could very well voice Xehanort good enough for Kingdom Hearts III, and I believe that man is Scott Glenn, the man who plays Stick in Marvel's Daredevil and The Defenders! If you haven't heard the man's voice, listen to him here! Skip to 1:38 and raise the volume, and that old man there, listen to his voice! It definitely sounds a lot like Xehanort's!

 

 

Then listen to his voice here in this interview! Listen to the first two minutes, and you'll notice he has the tone and raspiness!

 

 

If he were chosen to be Xehanort, all he has to do is make his voice slightly deeper and raspier, and boom, Xehanort!
