Zack Sharf John DiMaggio and Hulu jointly announced March 1 that original Bender voice actor would return for the show’s upcoming revival. DiMaggio’s involvement was in question after he originally refused to join the revival because he felt the cast was not being paid enough.
If you assumed DiMaggio’s return meant he was able to get his desired pay raise, then you’d be wrong.“People are like, ‘I’m so glad you got more money! I didn’t get more money,” DiMaggio recently revealed at Phoenix Fan Fusion (via /Film). “But what I did get was a lot of respect, and a lot of head nods from people who are like, ‘Yo bro, I see you and thank you.'”DiMaggio called it “quite rewarding” to be praised by colleagues for speaking out about unfair pay, adding, “Trying to get money out of Disney is like trying to get blood from a stone — you ain’t gonna get it!” “But listen, this was the best thing about that fight: I had Disney, Hulu, I was holding on to their collective testicles so hard that they couldn’t, y’know, there was nowhere for them to go,” the voice actor added.
“But there was also nowhere for me to go, and who wants to hold on to those for that long?”Variety reached out to Disney for comment, but the studio does comment on matters of compensation.Hulu announced the “Futurama” reboot on February 9, with DiMaggio sitting out but original cast members Billy West, Katey Sagal, Tress MacNeille, Maurice LaMarche, Lauren Tom, Phil LaMarr and David Herman all returning. Variety reported at the time that DiMaggio’s role of Bender would be recast if he didn’t figure out a deal to return.

Jem Aswad Senior Music EditorJohn Lydon — a.k.a. Johnny Rotten, lead singer of the Sex Pistols and Public Image Ltd. — has written a brief and to-the-point editorial for the U.K.’s Times that ranges from his thoughts on the royal family to his wife’s struggle with Alzheimers, from Danny Boyle’s new biopic “Pistol” (which he fought legally) and his early struggles with fame.While the London-born Lydon, who has lived in Los Angeles for decades, courted controversy in recent years with statements in support of former President Trump, the editorial finds him as direct and unsentimental as ever.Yet the most striking statements are him effectively contradicting the world-shattering statements he made in the Sex Pistols’ first two singles, which laid the template for much of punk rock’s ethos: In it, he says “anarchy is a terrible idea” (defying the group’s first single, “Anarchy in the U.K.”) and “God bless the Queen,” which reverts the withering sarcasm of the group’s second single, “God Save the Queen” (“and the fascist regime”) as Britain observes Queen Elizabeth’s Platinum Jubilee.

Futurama voice actor John DiMaggio revealed he got respect but no more money after his salary standoff with Disney and Hulu last winter, a dispute he dubbed #bendergate.
Futurama star John DiMaggio has said that he didn’t get a pay rise after his return to the show.The actor, who voiced the robot on the original animated show, was not initially announced as part of the returning cast for the upcoming reboot series, saying at the time that he felt the cast deserved a pay rise.However, in March he confirmed he would be coming back after all, though it was unclear if he had been offered more money.Speaking to /Film at Phoenix Fan Fusion, DiMaggio has now said he will not be getting paid more, claiming: “People are like, ‘I’m so glad you got more money!’ I didn’t get more money.“But what I did get was a lot of respect, and a lot of head nods from people who are like, ‘Yo bro, I see you and thank you.'”He went on to call the respect he garnered over so-called #Bendergate “quite rewarding,” adding: “Trying to get money out of Disney is like trying to get blood from a stone — you ain’t gonna get it!”The actor also recalled that he discussed a return with his agent, suggesting it was like “we want to be in the house having a nice Thanksgiving dinner, or… standing across the street in the freezing rain watching everybody eat stuffing.”“But listen, this was the best thing about that fight: I had Disney, Hulu, I was holding on to their collective testicles so hard that they couldn’t, y’know, there was nowhere for them to go,” he added.
