"The Boy and the Heron: Robert Pattinson's Unexpected Casting in Miyazaki's Latest Triumph"

New York-based production studio GKIDS faced immense pressure to create a successful English dub for Studio Ghibli's "The Boy and the Heron," which is considered legendary filmmaker Hayao Miyazaki's potentially final film. GKIDS collaborated closely with Ghibli on the casting process, aiming to create a love letter to the studio by including voice actors from previous Ghibli dubs. Robert Pattinson was chosen to voice the character of the heron, despite initial doubts, and delivered a nuanced and transformative performance. The dubbing process required striking a delicate balance between honoring Miyazaki's vision and adding a personal touch, resulting in a dub that captures the essence of the original while making it accessible to English-speaking audiences.
