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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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

[Heihei] is stupidest chicken on planet Earth and mascot.

[Heihei] a really dumb rooster. You have to just turn the rooster so his head ends up hitting the grain. He's not smart enough to eat.

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.

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.

I actually oddly have done another robot motion capture. I did Sonny in I, Robot.

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].

Those in power at Disney, the very generous figures at Disney Animation, have convinced themselves I'm a good-luck charm for their movies, which is great. It's working out really well for me, and it seems to be a mutually beneficial arrangement.

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.

[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.

Those are always fun characters to play, the ones who are stupid but speak with authority.

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.

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.
