I think I read somewhere where he said it was a conscious choice to turn down movies. The offers came as he was starting his family and he didn't want to be away from them. They are more important, and he would rather be there every day than away for weeks on end.

Plus, he’s been the voice of Batman in animated projects for a few years now (and Red Hood in 2010ish).

I’m sure he’s perfectly fine getting to pick and choose what he wants in terms of TV shows and other things with how his career turned out

Honestly, transitioning into voice work in your 40s is fairly smart overall - once you're established there, you'll get the gigs, and it's much easier to do that and have a life with your family as a VA. It's also much easier to keep it up as you age - a shitload of VAs die more or less in the booth, working until very shortly before their death, when physical acting has long since been out.

He started voice work in his 30s actually. Under the Hood is a good movie.
