How do movies that have been edited for content to air on TV make edits for language with apparently the same voice as the original actor/actress but with a “less bad” bad word inserted for the original word? Do they pre-record them or are they generated artificially?
In: Other
In some cases, they have the original actor re-record the line to make it more TV friendly, while in other cases they get another actor who is skilled at mimicking others voices to pretend to be the original actor saying the more TV friendly line.
Google ADR, automated dialog replacement.
And yes, most of the time they rerecord it when the movie is being made, so they will do an R rated version for the theaters, and have the actors record enough extra dialog so that they can go back later and edit out the objectionable words and replace with acceptable words, then they will have a second PG rated version that they can use on TV.
Lmao, someone find the Spike TV version of Scarface.. the channel struggled to edit that movie with clean words. It was a hilarious bandaid job.
