"Dakota Fanning debuts as the irrepressible but loveable Lilo in the upcoming Disney premiere <i>Lilo & Stitch 2</i>."

I guess that's why it didn't sound like Davleigh Chase!

This comes from Disney DVD Insider, a cool (but kind of dated and so not entirely accurate) booklet within an upcoming DVD.

Interesting. Davleigh Chase gets passed over for Ring 2 and Lilo 2. Perhaps she's just growing up too fast.

But the Fannster

dakota fanning is annoying.............

im upset by this news

I don't think that was Dakota in the trailer. It sounded like an adult female doing the voice.

Anyway, I guess this is pretty good news. Dakota doesn't sound much like Dav, but I'm sure she'll bring some emotion to the voice, if anything.

That surely is interesting news!

now it's kinda hard for me to imagine her as the voice of lilo since she was freaky in Hide&seek!

I despise Dakota Fanning.....

*confused*
Whats the problem as didnt she do the voice in Lilo & Stitch so its good right?

No, she didn't. Re-read this thread to find out who did!

I dont care for Dakota Fanning either, she doesnt act like her age, she needs to get off her cloud and realize that she's still underage lol

I don't know anything about this girl except I thought she did a fine job with the young voice of Kim Possible in "A Sitch in Time." What's the big deal with her?

That's gonna be strange. I guess I'll have to wait and see how she sounds, but ... Daveigh is Lilo. Her voice. I don't know if it'll throw me off, having a change. And even if it doesn't, just knowing, mentally, that it's someone different doing the voice ... the mind reels. Mine does, anyway. I find this interesting, though. And wonder how it'll work out ...

If Daveigh still does the show ... why couldn't she have done L&S 2, though ... I'm not sure how I feel about that. Even though Daveigh is getting older, et cetera, but ... to have the voice be a different actress ... hmm ...

If I may asked, where did you find this tidbit?

Because I really want to know if Gantu's going to be in the movie, and maybe the place where you found that out mentions it.... *Doubts it*


EDIT: Nevermind, I see your source now.

What the heck?! Daveigh Chase provided the voice of Lilo in both Stitch the Movie and the TV series! And she sounds just fine! What excuse is here for being replaced?!!!

Just curious. I mean it would make sense for Chase to this L&S2

I assume that Daveigh was passed over for the role of Lilo this time around because of a change in her voice so I'm fine with it, but if that's not the case then I too ask why she was replaced.

Though I'm not sure I can picture her voicing Lilo right now, I don't mind the casting decision. I'm certainly not a Dakota Fanning hater (as most people here seem to be lol). I haven't seen her in many films but from what I hear she's a good young actress worthy of the praise she gets.

I don't despise her, but I'm so childish her name makes me giggle like a little child!

Fanning!

What a shame. Dav is good as Lilo. And who cares if her voice is changing? At least you'll know it's the same person.

Dakota Fanning. No thanks.

I didn't think Dakota Fanning was this despised.

Hi, I'm new to this forum. Hopefully I can be of some help here.

According to "Lilo and Stitch: The Series", Executive Producer and Writer/Executive Producer of "Stitch! The Movie" Jess Winfield who posted numerous times over at the TV Tome forums..."Lilo & Stitch 2" started production before the series or "Stitch! The Movie" and is being made by a different department at Disney. The powers that be in that department thought that back in 2001, by the time "Lilo & Stitch 2" was finished with production (which would be now), that Daveigh Chase would be too old to do the voice. So they went with someone younger. Obviously they were wrong... girls' voices don't change like boys' voices do. They should have realized that. Anyway, that's why they cast Dakota Fanning as Lilo in "Lilo and Stitch 2".

Dakota Fanning is the most disturbing child actor since Patty McCormack in "Bad Seed."

Which will make her ideal for Hide and Seek
