Contrary to reports claiming Brittany Murphy was fired by Disney as the new voice of Tinkerbell, a Disney rep tells OK! that Murphy actually bowed out because of a scheduling conflict.
In a statement obtained by OK!, the Disney rep says, "If you were wondering why Mae Whitman was swapped in for Brittany Murphy as the voice of Tinker Bell, it was due to a scheduling conflict. When John Lasseter came on board, the schedule changed, and the new schedule didn't work for her."
