This movie [Moana] has a very small cast, and this was the role [Heihei] that they offered me. I loved voicing him.

More quotes by Alan Tudyk
Reading is a heady thing. You can be into the action of someone's thoughts and take a whole trip down someone's ruminations while seconds tick by in the world that they're in, but you can't really do that in film. Some films can, but not too much.
Alan Tudyk
The reason I got into acting was the audience is right there and if you did something great they were right there and you knew it.
Alan Tudyk
Going back was like a reunion for all the cast. We were all there. It was weird to have been away from it for a few months, and then, Hey look, here we all are. I can still walk on these stilts. Wow, we all still fit in our costumes. It was nice to connect again, and then we went to Star Wars Celebration right after that. It's neat.
Alan Tudyk
The wrinklier the raisin, the sweeter the fruit.

[Making Moana] was like camping because we were all living together on the boat, and one night we came home and there was a whale shark. I got to go swimming with her. It was a magic, magic, magical time.
Alan Tudyk
I actually oddly have done another robot motion capture. I did Sonny in I, Robot.
Alan Tudyk
I was going to be credited as Wray Nerely, my role in Con Man. It got cut in the reshoots. I was like, Wait a second. I'm cut. It's a better telling of the story, but unfortunately, Wray Nerely gets cut, which is actually exactly right because if Wray Nerely was ever in Star Wars, he wouldn't make it to the final edit.
Alan Tudyk
I definitely knew how to fly. That's something you don't forget. One spaceship is pretty much like another when it comes to flying.
Alan Tudyk
I'm there [on Moana] with the other actors, so you play off one another. It's not just your idea of what the character is and what the world is like it would be in an animated [film], where it all sort of exists in your head. It's all right there, and if Diego's performance is doing what it's doing, it affects yours.
Alan Tudyk
When we recorded [Moana], I would do all of the stuff and then save all the big screaming for last so that you can really blow it out and ratchet it up every time, get that perfect panicked pitch.
Alan Tudyk
Those are always fun characters to play, the ones who are stupid but speak with authority.
Alan Tudyk
Because I'm CGI, [John Swartz] gave me a role of an Imperial pilot in one scene, so I had a day where I was on camera dressed as a black suit and a little cap that they wear.
Alan Tudyk
That's where I'm comfortable - playing a jackass on the scene, rolling in with my pocket watch and my buffoon hairdo, with my shoes.
Alan Tudyk
R2-D2 is like that, but I think because he doesn't speak actual words, his jokes don't land. It's really a hindrance. And the same with BB-8. But Artoo is a lot stronger.
Alan Tudyk
I feel like it'll change after the movie [Star Wars] comes out, if it does. It's really the other way around, surprisingly, as far as Con Man goes.
Alan Tudyk
C-3PO is flappable [in Star Wars]. [Kaytoo is] very unflappable compared to C-3PO, who is just flapping all over the place.
Alan Tudyk
I like comedies, and my brain sort of spins in that direction. So I'm really happy to say there were several smartass comments that come from me [on Star Wars].
Alan Tudyk
I trained as a stage actor and was given a lot of technical tools to play with.
Alan Tudyk
BB-8 [from Star Wars] his accent is so thick. You can't make out a damn word he says.
Alan Tudyk
Gareth [Edwards] was very much about including everyone in what we were making, so he would cut together different scenes to show us what we were making. And the crew, cast, everyone would go into a theater there at Pinewood Studios and watch 10 minutes of what we were making. It was always so exciting. It looked amazing, and the music was huge.
