Square Enix have released a full run-down of most of the English voice actors and actresses we have seen so far in Final Fantasy VII Remake.
Out of the major characters:
- Cloud, Cody Christian (All American, Teen Wolf)
- Aerith, Briana White (Criminal Minds: Beyond Borders, Occupants)
- Barret, John Eric Bentley (Marvel Ultimate Alliance 3: The Black Order, Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen, Independence Day: Resurgence)
- Tifa, Britt Baron (Young Justice, Destiny 2, GLOW)
- Sephiroth, Tyler Hoechlin (Supergirl, Arrow, Teen Wolf, and ironically 7th Heaven)
Both Christian and White spoke on Twitter about the roles. Both discussed how important the roles are to fans, and the effort they would put in:
“Honored and humbled to be able to announce my participation in the @FinalFantasy VII remake as the voice of Cloud Strife. I vow to give nothing shy of 100% and my absolute best to ensure this iconic character’s depth and complexity resonates. Thank you all for the support. [Heart Emoji]”
I'm so excited to finally announce that I am the voice of Aerith in the Final Fantasy VII Remake. I can't believe this is real. #FF7R #E3 pic.twitter.com/0fb27cz6Ex
