Seems like intentionally re-cast everyone from the old anime dub with Asian American voice-actors. I suppose it makes sense since white and black people voicing Japanese characters would be pretty weird. At least Todd Haberkorn gets to reprise his role. I generally watch live-action subbed though. Dubbed live-action is just weird. I will miss Vic Mignogna, Maxey Whitehead, Travis Willingham, Michael Tatum, and all the OG cast though.

They had already largely re-cast the entire crew for the first live action film, with only Vic, Caitlin, and Aaron reprising their roles. With Vic gone and Aaron presumably on vocal rest when they recorded this, only Caitlin came back as Winry for the second and third films.
