I remember reading an editorial on TF.N about a decade ago (pro-SW, amazingly enough) responding to Prowse's comments that people would be upset not to have him back as Vader. The editorial rightly noted that Prowse should be grateful to be apart of something that still makes him money years later. They noted the case of Jeremy "Boba Fett" Bulloch. They noted that Bulloch (think I'm spelling his name wrong) was not the voice of the character and freely admits that it was armor/mystique of Fett that made the character so popular but that he's happy to be apart of SW. He's still on good enough terms with GL and LFL that he even got a speaking cameo in ROTS.
If only GL and LFL would disinvite Entertainment Weekly permanently. I think that's only a use-use relationship now.
