The union claims that Llama Productions failed to notify the labor group and negotiate when it began employing a James Earl Jones voice that replaced the work of members.

Fortnite used conversational AI to replicate James Earl Jones' voice as Star Wars' Darth Vader, which has sparked a complaint from SAG-AFTRA.

SAG-AFTRA, the organization that represents voice, motion, and screen performers, has filed an unfair labor complaint against Epic Games. The complaint stems from the company’s recent introduction of an AI programmed to sound like James Earl Jones’ Darth Vader that can respond to a player’s actions and questions.
