KHInsider: "Well, previously I had mentioned a rumour about Naminé being recasted for her appearance in Re:CoM, and, I can now assure you that it is official. According to her official site, Meaghan Jette Martin will now be doing the voice of Naminé. The Disney Channel Star (who most recently appeared in the Disney Channel Original Movie 'Camp Rock' as 'Tess') will be taking over the role of Naminé, replacing Brittany Snow as the previous actress for the character. No reason has been given as to why she was recasted, but fans know that this isn't the first time they have seen a beloved character being voiced by a different actor ("Ansem"/Xehanort was previously voiced by Billy Zane and is now voiced by Richard Epcar)."
Some Re:Chain of Memories updates for you guys. First off, some casting news and rumours. Recently, Derek Stephen Prince has updated his MySpace Blog confirming his role in the game. He will be voicing the Organization Member Vexen, commenting on how he had twelve hours of recording and that he was sure fans would "love to hate" him. In his post, he also confirmed that Christopher Lee would be back to voice DiZ/Ansem the Wise, and that Richard Epcar would also reprise his role as "Ansem"/Xehanort's Heartless.
