Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_1'); })Every now and then, someone in the biz will become just the right kind of hot commodity. Kids are going crazy for 'em — slap their picture on a Trapper Keeper and it'll be gone from the shelf before you can say "cynical marketeering." What better way, then, to hype this piece of human merchandise than for them to star in their very own cartoon? Kids love cartoons, right? And here's the best part — they don't even have to be in it! After all, celebrities are busy people, right? They're going places, doing things, making appearances. It would be downright rude of you to ask them to actually record their own voices for their cartoon show, wouldn't it? Especially when the draw of the celebrity name is expected to make up for lack of decent writing and animation. Plus you would have to pay them! Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_2'); })Yes, all you need is a licensing fee, a barely reasonable voice impersonator, a dirt-cheap animator, and an option of IN SPACE and you've got a cash cow the whole family can enjoy! Alternately, this can happen if you've got the license to some aging or dead celebrity's likeness, and you're willing to squeeze every last drop of money out of it. Especially common with shows about musicians, since you can drop in a song by the musicians in each episode to up the appearance of celebrity-association. At least with the music segments you'll probably have to keep their singing voices, leaving your own Non-Singing Voice actors to play them for the rest of the show. Often, the characters are Flanderized versions of the celebrities' public personas, and can therefore veer into third-party Adam Westing. Compare and contrast Celebrity Toons, which may star the person in question. Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_3'); })Examples |

James Bond tie-in games tend towards this. Electronic Arts in particular typically only secured Pierce Brosnan's likeness while hiring a sound-alike to actually voice the character, with the only standouts being Everything or Nothing (where Brosnan properly voiced the character) and 007: From Russia with Love (where Sean Connery played the character again; interestingly, both of these games are their actor's respective last times playing Bond in any capacity).note To the other extreme is Agent Under Fire, which managed this with a soundalike, securing the likeness of Andrew Bicknell - to the point some sources, even on this wiki, claim he voiced Bond in that game - but having Adam Blackwood, the soundalike previously employed in the video game adaptations of Tomorrow Never Dies and The World Is Not Enough, voice the character. By contrast, Activision's games almost always secured both the likeness and voice of Daniel Craig's Bond, with the only exception being 007 Legends, where Timothy Watson voices him instead (ostensibly due to Craig being busy actually acting as Bond during development). | |

The videogame "sequel" to Scarface (1983) used clips of Al Pacino's performance in the original film as well as a soundalike for new lines. Although this came with Pacino's blessing, who hand-picked his replacement: years of smoking made it impossible for Al to do the Tony Montana voice again. The soundalike in question, André Sogliuzzo, later went on to voice the character again in a PAYDAY 2 crossover DLC. | |

Rogue One does this for both Grand Moff Tarkin and Leia Organa. The two characters are physically played by, respectively, Guy Henry and Ingvild Deila, though since the film is a prequel to the original 1977 A New Hope, the two's features are altered with CGI to make them look like the original actors for their characters, respectively Peter Cushing (who had died in 1994, Henry impersonating his voice for the role) and Carrie Fisher (pushing 60 at the time, with archived sound of her from the original film being dubbed over Deila's sole line as the character). | |

The Brødrene Dal movie kind of featured Trond Kirkevaag as Brumund, despite releasing three years after his 2007 death. They used recordings of their stage show from 1997 with the other two really acting while he communicated with them from afar with a video transmitter. The movie was not well received, due to still feeling too soon for the last two actors and fans. | |

The classic example is The Beatles, which involved animated versions of the Fab Four in random wacky hijinks (much like in their two then-recent films A Hard Day's Night and Help!), without involving any actual Beatles. Often, the mopheads were depicted playing the wrong instruments or singing the wrong parts of their songs and not getting their speaking voices exactly right, which they greatly disliked. The Beatles went on to not star in the animated movie Yellow Submarine, although they did at least have the grace to show up for a few seconds at the end. Apparently, they thought the movie was much better than the series. John admitted to watching the cartoon show in the 70s when he was a stay-at-home dad to Sean (his son then), and George commented the cartoons were of the "so bad it's good" variety. |

Jackie Chan Adventures has James Sie voicing the animated Jackie Chan, with the real Jackie only appearing in the title sequence and live action segments at the end of each episode. Jackie is also one of the producers, so he does have some say on how he is portrayed in the show.

Factory Girl, the biopic of Edie Sedgwick, has Mick Jagger turn up at one of Andy Warhol's parties—shot entirely from behind as he marches stiffly through the throng of partygoers reacting excitedly to his presence. Bob Dylan, by contrast, gets the No Celebrities Were Harmed treatment via a fictional character obviously based on him, after Dylan himself threatened to sue. Most of the other characters (Sedgwick, Warhol) were either dead or fictional composites. | |

In Back to the Future: The Game, Christopher Lloyd voices Doc Brown, but Marty is voiced by soundalike AJ LoCasio. Michael J. Fox gave Telltale Games the rights to use his likeness and his blessing, but wasn't available to do the voice acting himself. However, he does voice Marty's ancestors in the final episode, and three Martys from the future! None of the other actors from the films return to voice their characters (or their ancestors/descendants) either, except for Thomas F. Wilson (who redubbed Biff for the 2015 re-release, having been doubled by Andrew Chaikin originally) and Claudia Wells as Jennifer, for the first time since the original 1985 film. | |

Star Trek: Voyager - Elite Force was initially an example, as all of the actors from Voyager returned to voice their respective characters - except for Jeri Ryan, leaving her character Seven of Nine to be voiced by Joan Buddenhagen instead. However, with the appropriately-titled Expansion Pack, Ryan returned to voice her character - the patch even replaces all of Buddenhagen's lines from the original game with Ryan redoing them, so as to remove any sort of jarring change in her voice when going from the original game to the expansion content. | |

Averted in the first season of Bill & Ted's Excellent Adventures which had George Carlin, Alex Winter, and a pre-The Matrix Keanu Reeves voice their own characters. Sadly played straight in the second season Retool, which used the same voice cast from the live-action series of the same name that had yet to be released. | |

My Dad the Rock Star was created by KISS frontman Gene Simmons, but his Author Avatar Rock Zilla was instead voiced by Lawrence Bayne. However, Gene Simmons was the series' executive producer, so he got quite a bit of say in how the show was produced, including personally choosing Lawrence Bayne as the voice of Rock Zilla. | |
