User @HeavenlyTape has already started assuming who will play the role of Crash. He wanted Nolan North, the voice of Nathan Drake from Uncharted, to voice act for Crash. He also stated he is willing to settle for Brad Pitt too.
I expect if Nolan North (or Brad Pitt according to Caddy) would voice Crash, either fully voiced or gibberish.

Although Toys for Bob reached out to Sony in the Tweet, many fans are skeptical if they will respond. Many are suggesting Crash Bandicoot developers try asking Microsoft. This is because Microsoft will soon be acquiring Activision, the parent company of Toys for Bob.
Wouldn’t that be ironic since he’s soon becoming a MS property
