Out of these five voice actors, only Poehler, Smitha and Black have returned for the sequel with Hader and Kaling’s duties being taken over by Tony Hale and Liza Lapira respectively. Fans are rather sad about it as one of them wrote on X (formerly Twitter): “They’ll definitely be missed.”

Hopefully, the new voice actors Hale and Lapira will do great so that the upcoming movie is even better than the last. Even so, it is undeniable that Mindy Kaling and Bill Hader will be missed.
