> You seem to be misunderstanding the situation here. They wanted ScarJo to voice their voice assistant, and she refused twice. They also independently created a voice assistant which sounds very similar to her.

And promoted it using a tweet naming the movie that Johansson performed in, for the role that prompted them to ask her in the first place.

You have to be almost deliberately naive to not see that the were attempting to use her vocal likeness in this situation. There’s a reason they immediately walked it back after the situation was revealed.

Neither a judge, nor a jury, would be so willingly naive.

This is a genuine question. If it turns out they trained Sky on someone else's voice to similarly replicate the style of the voice in "Her", would you be ok with that? If it was proven that the voice was just similar, to SJ's would that be ok?

My view is, of course it is ok. SJ doesn't own the right to a particular style of voice.
