The Screen Actors Guild–American Federation of Television and Radio Artists (SAG-AFTRA) has filed an unfair labour complaint over Fortnite's use of AI to recreate the voice of the late actor James Earl Jones after the Sith lord returned to the game as a Battle Royale boss.

The union has now filed an unfair labor practice charge (link to the PDF is on the SAG-AFTRA website) that calls out “ Fortnite ‘s signatory company, Llama Productions” for “ [replacing] the work of human performers with AI technology” without “providing any notice of their intent to do this and without bargaining with us over appropriate terms.”
