A bit early with no voice cast nor a release date for Part 1 but with the second SuperS set released this week with the 167 preview, this thread is getting made now.

Laura Post as Nehelenia sounds like what I expected: incredible. I think she's a perfect fit for the part, and captures the spirit of the Japanese performance well.

This may be more Toei's fault than Viz's. When I asked Robbie Daymond about the hiatus between R and S years ago, and he said something along the lines of Viz not being legally allowed to dub new episodes for a period of time.
Wasn't that due to a contract dispute with one of the VAs?

Why would an actor have a contract dispute?! But yeah Nehelinia doesnt sound hammy and only super serious so far.

Wow... glad its confirmed... i guess will hear about casting at AX then?
AX is in July...well past the first part's release.

The closest BIG anime con that Viz might go to, before Part 1's release, is Anime Boston, which is on April 19-21, 2019. Viz might release the cast list in a tweet before that con.

So happy about this. I am ecstatic that finally Sailor Stars for the first time ever will be dubbed in English and English speaking fans can finally get the fifth season officially. I do wonder when they are going to release the SuperS movie and the Ami's First Love special though? I wonder if it will be before Sailor Stars part 1 is released or in between Sailor Stars part 1 and part 2?

I'm predicting February for the SuperS movie since they're pretty much done with their January release announcements (thank goodness).

I think Viz could take the Latin Spanish/Brazilian Portuguese dub route with the Starlights: male voice actors for their male counterparts and female voices for their female counterparts. Most foreign dubs that used one voice actor/actress for both forms didn't sound believable.

February would be the most apt time of release for the SuperS movie since it does take place during that month.
