Rooster Teeth Has Fired Vic Mignogna
Vic Mignogna is a voice actor for many programs with his most famous role probably being Edward Elric in Full Metal Alchemist and Full Metal Alchemist: Brotherhood. He also voices Qrow Branwen in Rooster Teeth’s series RWBY. Well, that last sentence should now read “voiced.” Rooster Teeth recently posted on their website, stating:
This firing comes after several dozen (at least) accusations of sexual misconduct have surfaced and added to allegations a decade old. The majority of conventions Mignogna was to be a guest at have pulled their invitations, and several people in the industry are saying that these allegations are true.
I’m interested to see what happens to his character Qrow as they’ve said this news will not impact the show creatively. I’m sure this simply means that they’ll recast Qrow, I’m just not sure who should get the job. Maybe Christopher Sabat would take the gig? Could you imagine Vegeta being Qrow? That’d be awesome.
