SAG-AFTRA has issued a 鈥淒o Not Work Order鈥� against the twelfth mainline entry in the Mega Man series, titled Mega Man: Dual Override, as Capcom has failed to 鈥渋nitiate the signatory process鈥� required to hire unionized actors. As a result, Ben Diskin, who voiced Mega Man in Mega Man 11, has announced that he鈥檚 鈥渘o longer the voice of Mega Man鈥� and won鈥檛 be reprising his role in the upcoming game. Diskin speculated that it may be the AI protections a union contract would require that Capcom is trying to avoid agreeing to.
