Episode Description
When we say we’re doing a whole episode on a voice actor, you might be like, “Angela and Joe…I’ve supported you through some strange episode ideas, but one based on some dude I don’t even know…I don’t know if I can follow you here.”
If you don’t already know, I’ll assure you he isn’t just a voice actor. Alan Tudyk is THE voice actor.
A former student at the prestigious Julliard, Tudyk has played iconic characters in AI (Sonny), Dodgeball: An Underdog Story (Steve the Pirate), A Knight’s Tale (Wat), and his most recognizable role in the cult classic, Firefly (as Hoban “Wash” Washburne).
But lately, he’s been doing some serious work for Disney. He’s voiced over 8 different characters since 2012 from Wreck It Ralph’s bumbling villain, King Candy (which he received a voice actor award for) to Moana’s lovable and unexpected sidekick, Heihei. We try to rank the movies/roles, but honestly, it’s hard…he’s so talented.
Whether you were unaware of his talent before listening to this or not, you’ll definitely be searching for his name in the credits when you see the next big Disney flick.
