Voice cast question

Item: Terminator Zero
Language: en-US
Type of Problem: Design_issue
Extra Details: The show is physically produced in Japan (I assume in Japanese, judging from the lip movement, which fits the Japanese narration), but the show's original language is locked to English. So which voice cast should be added, Japanese or English? Netflix promotes English cast https://www.netflix.com/tudum/articles/terminator-anime-release-date-photos-news, but I guess in Japan they promote Japanese cast.

Whichever voice cast is the "original" one according to the credits. Whichever audio track Netflix says is the original audio once the show releases can also be helpful. For example, Marie Antoinette is a French-Belgian production that first aired in France on Canal+ but the original spoken language is English.
Since the show isn't out yet, there's currently no way to tell which voice cast is the original one.

The credits have both Japanese and English cast listed side-by-side. But I guess I have my answer on the show's page, somehow I missed that last line before. It says "Featuring the voices of Timothy Olyphant, Rosario Dawson, André Holland, Sonoya Mizuno and Ann Dowd in English dubbing."
I guess this means that the original language and original name must also be changed to Japanese. But this probably can wait until the 29th.
