Is James Earl Jones doing the voice? It's really the most distinctive thing about the character, without him it'll be hard to convince me that I am watching the real Darth Vader.

The character was voiced in the original trilogy by James Earl Jones, now 85, while 80-year-old David Prowse donned the iconic cape and helmet. Jones, 32, who was Oscar-nominated for her role opposite Eddie Redmayne in “The Theory of Everything,” plays rebel Jyn Erso, who has notched up a string of convictions for forgery, assault and theft.

Slopping writing, given you've just mentioned James Earl Jones, and then leap into discussing (Felicity) Jones...

May the force help us as all this crap is about to be thrown upon us!

The last movie was a virtual COPY of the first release, was ridiculous a ripoff!

Gw. Agree, but how delicious that garbage was. The crew and cast did work hard on it and actually got out of the blue screen rooms. Trying to watch episode 123 is torture after watching 7.

@rainyday yes he is voicing Vader in Rouge One . He has also been voicing Vader in the Rebels animated series the past 2 years on Disney XD.

If James Earl Jones can't do the voice, Arnold Schwarzenegger can fill in nicely! Check out "Darth Vader Voiced By Schwarzenegger" on Youtube, ha ha!
