"Dragon Ball Z: Resurrection Of F" release date in the United States has been confirmed. FUNimation and OkraTron5000 are working with American engineers and voice actors in a recording studio in Richardson, Texas for the English dubs.

One of the artists working with FUNimation and OkraTron5000  replace the original Japanese voices of the "Dragon Ball Z: Resurrection Of F" characters with English versions is Christopher Sabat, the film's English voice director who also voices Vegeta and Piccolo.

In a recent interview with CW33, Sabat pointed out that it is incredibly important for the voice actors to go the extra mile to make sure they get the "Dragon Ball Z: Resurrection Of F" English dubs correctly.

As a voice actor, Sabat is looking for anything that he can do to make his voice sound like it is coming out of that character's mouth. For almost two decades, he has been lending his voice to DBZ characters, which he said has all been worth it.

In particular, Sabat said it is challenging to voice the fight scenes. He explained, "It is physically demanding. If you aren't sweating by the time you get out of one of these sessions, you haven't done your job properly."

"Dragon Ball Z: Resurrection Of F" will feature the stronger resurrected Frieza as he takes his revenge with Goku and Vegeta in the defense.

In Japan, the original Japanese version titled "Dragon Ball Z: Fukkatsu no Efu" was a box office hit even defeating "Fast And Furious 7" starring the late Paul Walker. FUNimation will screen the English version "Dragon Ball Z: Revival Of F" in the U.S. from Aug. 4 to 12 only. Screening locations are yet to be announced but those who want to be notified first can subscribe in Dragon Ball Z.
