The new trailer for Christopher Robin which debuted this weekend showcases more footage from the live-action sequel to Winnie The Pooh, reuniting Robin - played by Ewan McGregor - with Pooh, Tigger, Piglet, Eeyore and the gang at One Hundred Acre Wood.
The initial voice cast included Jim Cummings returning as Pooh, our own Chris O'Dowd as Tigger, Peter Capaldi as Rabbit, Brad Garrett as Eeyore and Toby Jones as Owl - but it now looks like O'Dowd has been replaced by Cummings as Tigger.
Although no official statement has been made as of yet by Disney, O'Dowd or anyone attached to the production, IMDb no longer lists O'Dowd in the role and instead credits Cummings as both the voice of Pooh and Tigger. The new trailer confused a number of fans on Twitter as well.
Is that Jim Cummings or Chris O'Dowd as Tigger?

I guess Chris O'Dowd isn't voicing Tigger anymore.https://t.co/r5RQOStRfl

I thought that Chris O’Dowd was voicing Tigger? That sounds a lot Jim Cummings doing it to me
