I spoke to Corey on Facebook last night. He is always active on his account!

He is a great guy.

Will be a cool read. Also trying to get him to stop by here again.

Hi,

I have a couple of questions;

1) at any point over the past decade or so, was he contacted (even in a minor way) by Sega or an affiliate regarding work on Shenmue 3, or HD remakes?

2) did he do any preparation for the role? (I know actors usually do, not so sure about voice actors though.)

Ask him if he's had any gaming voice actor work done lately? That's a generic enough question isn't it?

Yes, this has already been asked (here).

Corey Marshall got tons of questions! One more time Shenmue shows that is a demand thing, and that people love Corey!

@SEGANerds:

"The interview with Corey will be later tonight, and we'll be adding it to our audio podcast."

"This is by far the most... " [ = he can't describe it... then shows the endless list of questions...]

(See the video for details.)

Update

@SEGANerds:

"Interviewing Corey Marshall right now, and I'm totally geeking out. He just threw out a Lucky Hit reference!!!"

"The interview should be this afternoon!"

"In our interview, @coreymarshallVO talks Shenmue's infamous "sailors" line, whether he's worked on Shenmue 3 and much more!"

SEGA Nerdcast: Episode 7

We’re back again with the much-anticipated interview with Shenmue’s Ryo Hazuki voice actor Corey Marshall! We talk to Corey about how he originally got the job as Ryo, the infamous “Sailors” quote, if he’s been working on Shenmue 3 and much more!

If you’d like to skip right to the interview, go to the 46 minute and 45 second mark of the show.

« Marshall did say, though, that he’d like to see the series continued, and if SEGA has no intention to do so that they allow Suzuki to have the license.

“I would like to see it released, and I think a lot of fans would like to see it released. If (SEGA) wanted to release the rights to it, I think giving it to Suzuki is the right move, and I don’t think there would be any sort of animosity or bad blood,” he said. “As a fan, I would love to see the franchise continued.” »
