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].

More quotes by 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
I've signed a few Kaytoo photos and things and a couple of action figures [on ComicCon], but really it's not that many.
Alan Tudyk
It was a very interesting challenge [Heihei role] because he's limited to rooster-y, chicken-type noises, and he goes along on the whole adventure. It just becomes, If that's how you express yourself, go for it.
Alan Tudyk
The wrinklier the raisin, the sweeter the fruit.
Alan Tudyk
BB-8 [from Star Wars] his accent is so thick. You can't make out a damn word he says.
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
It's closer to just acting in a film because it was a six-month commitment. We got to fly all over the world.
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
I'm a geeky actor, in the way that I like the craft of acting. I trained as a stage actor and was given a lot of technical tools to play with. I like the craft of acting. It sounds geeky when I say it, but it's true.

Gareth [Edwards] was very open to just shaping the performances and the scenes to fit what was happening with the actors and the storytelling that was emerging.
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
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 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
It's amazing how much actual chicken sounds lend themselves to stupidity.
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.
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
You do a film and you have hopes for it, and you read it, and you see it one way in your head, and you shoot it, and it'll always change from what you started out. Sometimes it turns out better, sometimes it turns out I don't know, but as movies go I've never experienced seeing and likening what I've read, and I liked what I read.
Alan Tudyk
[ Gareth Edwards] never wanted to force anything that wasn't true. He's very much an actor's director, and it was loose.
Alan Tudyk
I actually oddly have done another robot motion capture. I did Sonny in I, Robot.
