Baldur’s Gate 3 Actor Rejects Role in Disco Elysium Successors
Samantha Béart, the voice of Karlach in Baldur’s Gate 3, has refused to work on any Disco Elysium spiritual successors unless the original creator, Robert Kurvitz, is involved.
Béart’s Strong Stance
- In a warning tweet, Béart made it clear she won’t accept roles from any studio making a Disco Elysium successor.
- She believes these projects are not legitimate without Kurvitz.
- Her message to them: “Miss me with that casting call.”
Why So Many Successors?
- Disco Elysium was a groundbreaking game, but studio drama at ZA/UM led to mass layoffs and multiple spin-off projects.
- Three different studios announced Disco Elysium-style games on the same day last year.
- Béart’s rejection is a blow to at least one of them, as they were trying to attract top voice talent.
Could Béart Work with Kurvitz Again?
For fans hoping Béart and Kurvitz will reunite, there is one possibility—Red One Ltd.
- Kurvitz and former Disco Elysium artist Aleksander Rostov founded Red One Ltd.
- Their current project is unknown, but Béart seems open to working with them.
For now, Béart won’t be lending her voice to any Disco Elysium successors without Kurvitz’s involvement.
