Brendan Fraser says he has no idea why Disney didn't offer him to reprise his role as George. He said he would've loved to do it again, but he made a commitment of performing in Looney Tunes: Back in Action (2003) as DJ Drake/Himself (Live-action) and Tazmanian Devil and Tazmanian She-Devil (Animation), so Christopher Showerman replaced Fraser in the role of George. Concidentally, "Back in Action" has an African setting of its own.In a 2022 interview with Entertainment Weekly, Fraser hinted that he didn't return because the studio didn't offer him enough money o come back. He said: "I think 'George' got a remake, and they built a joke into it that the studio was too cheap to hire me, which wasn't inaccurate."
