It may appear that the voice actors for The LEGO Ninjago Movie has been revealed in a tweet earlier today which shows an image of some sort of Warner Bros. catalog of upcoming films. The cast list as follows:
Master Wu – Jackie Chan
Lloyd – Dave Franco
Kai – Michael Pena
Nya – Abbi Jacobson
Jay – Kumail Nanjiani
Zane – Zach Woods
Cole – Fred Armisen
The image also shows off some new outfits for the ninjas but those could just be a placeholder. The synopsis and the release date of September 22, 2017 shown also matches up to what has been reported before. Of course there’s still a long time until the movie is released so anything can change but so far, that is what is going on with The LEGO Ninjago Movie.
Ninjago is the story of six young ninja tasked with defending their island home, called Ninjago. By night, they’re gifted warriors, using their skills and awesome fleet of vehicles to fight villains and monsters. By day, they’re ordinary teens struggling against their greatest enemy: high school.

Why not get the voice actors from the show?
Because the movie itself is a new take that diverges from the show.
But the characters have not changed.
It is still the same characters just in a new take,
Hence, the voices should stay the same.They are established.It’s not a reboot.
That is a pretty good cast, especially having Jackie Chan as Wu. Since this is going to be a new take from the show it does make sense to hire new voice actors for the movie.
So this movie has no really connection with the show? Will it just be like a reboot like they did with bionicle?
Don’t like them not using voice actors from the show. Reminds me when they did Goofy movie and Max had different voice.
