Unknown "Mega Man Legends" Project Appears on Canadian Actors' Union Site

A production titled Mega Man Legends has appeared on ACTRA Toronto's "What's Shooting" database, a public listing of productions registered with the Canadian performers' union.

The entry is listed under "New Media," with a production period running from September 14 to December 1, 2026. Casting is being handled in-house, but there are no further details about who's involved or what the project actually is.

Naturally, the title raises some eyebrows. "New Media" is a pretty broad category that can cover everything from video games to television and film, so it's hard to say what we're looking at here

If this is game-related, however, one possibility worth considering is whether Capcom could be looking to Canadian voice talent as an alternative to SAG-AFTRA actors. Earlier this year, Mega Man: Dual Override became the subject of a SAG-AFTRA "Do Not Work" order, which led to Ben Diskin stepping away from the title role. 

For now, there's simply not enough information to draw any conclusions what the deal is. It's a very interesting find, though, and certainly something we'll keep an eye on!
