IMDB news is saying that GMC, who Arnett does voice overs with, has said that his work as the voice of KITT (which is a Ford Mustang) "conflicted with his work" for GMC Truck voice overs.

Val Kilmer is going to re-record all of KITTs lines before it premiers.

So basically Arnett's out because he did a GM ad within the last TEN YEARS? Screw that. Arnett was the only reason I was willing to give the remake a chance, so count me gone.

It makes sense from a marketing perspective, but that doesn't make it suck any less.

Does Val Kilmer not get offered movie roles anymore? First that Lonesome Dove sequel and now this?

Poor Will Arnett.

Yeah I'm out of the new show too. Will Arnet gave it the "oh, this'll be kinda cool to see" feel.

As for Kilmer. No movie roles for him recently probably because his body has gone the same direction as Steven Seagal's has.

Well Val Kilmer has about 10 or so upcoming roles according to IMDB. Even if that isn't completely accurate I'd say he's not hurting for work.

As for Kilmer as KITT. Eh, I'd actually prefer neither do it. Having a famous person as a voice just distracts from the movie.

Val did an episode of "Criminal Minds" last year, and yeah, that's about what he looked like.

Good lord, anonymous internet posters can be brutal!
I bet the majority of them are fatter than Val Kilmer could ever dream of being.
(I still think he was the best Batman/Bruce Wayne)
edit: forgot Christian Bale.

Actually, caught voice overs with Val. They played during American Gladitors, give him marks for trying, and boy did it make me a sad panda. That was WTJ(What the Junk) moment of the day.

Still has a shot in the dark to be better than VIPER

I was sold on this show because of Will Arnett. Val Kilmer is NOT Will Arnett. Now I'm actually considering No Way Out this sunday.

I know people who were annoyed that they "spoiled" the transforming nature of KITT in those NBC promos that they show at the movie theaters.
