i can't think of an older English language actress known for their voice that isn't either the type of person who gets oscar noms (And is therefore out-of the price range) or a voice actor who does silly voices or voices children. I mean I guess there's Shohreh Aghdashloo.
Then again I suppose people didn't really know Nimoy for his distinctive voice.
Nimoy did have a distinctive voice, especially when he got older. He's instantly recognizable in 4.
I'm not arguing that Nimoy wasn't good in 4. But I don't know if he was an actor known specifically for his voice. If you think otherwise, or I'm just wrong, that's cool, but that just gets us back to the issue that I can't think of a woman known for her voice that could get cast for this. (Except Shohreh Aghdashloo)
Helen Mirren does those Documentary Now! intros, so maybe she lowers her normal asking price for the rule of cool.
