Reply to comment by hollywooddouchenoz in Over 2 months ago, I put a video together about the appearance of Heather Donohue's voice from Blair Witch Project (who changed her name to Rei Hance in 2021) and how she was not credited or paid for her voice appearing in Academy Award Nominee, Tár. by HalpTheFan

It was also used in the trailer too. So in both instances, it was in the trailer (promotional material) and the final film. Yes, the scene is the screams she heard in the park. It's in the clip I've shared above.

I'm also not sure if Rei is apart of any guild - at least any more but at the time of recording, she may have been.

Also thank you for having a reasonable and forward argument on this, instead of just defending a company that is likely in the wrong. I do genuinely appreciate that.

The interviews I’ve seen with the cast and producers specifically point out the film could never have been made under SAG rules (since they basically were “working” 24 hours per day). So I’d imagine this film was made outside of any union contracts, and if I were a betting man I’d guess they were paid $1000/day as a full buy out.

That doesn’t mean a good lawyer couldn’t claw back some dough for her: but if she wasn’t able to renegotiate at the height of the film popularity I can’t imagine the $$$$ would be worth the legal fees now.
