Hellena Taylor, the original voice actor for the Bayonetta series’ titular protagonist, has issued a new statement in light of recent developments in the Bayonetta 3 voice actor controversy.
In a series of tweets, Taylor disputed claims that developer Platinum Games offered to pay her around $3,000 and $4,000 per four-hour session for at least five recording sessions and her counter-offer for $250,000, dismissing them as “total fabrications” and “ridiculous fictions”. She also brought up new information that was absent in her initial videos on how Platinum Games initially offered her $10,000 for the role, which was later increased to $15,000 after she wrote to developer Hideki Kamiya “asking for what she was worth”.

In the meantime, both Platinum Games and Bayonetta’s new voice actress Jennifer Hale have recently published their own respective statements on the situation, calling on fans and the online community as a whole to be civil towards the parties involved.
