More quotes by 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.
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
[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.
Alan Tudyk
The wrinklier the raisin, the sweeter the fruit.
Alan Tudyk
This movie [Moana] has a very small cast, and this was the role [Heihei] that they offered me. I loved voicing him.
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
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
[ 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
[Heihei] is stupidest chicken on planet Earth and mascot.
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
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
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
I feel much more comfortable as an artist collaborating with others because I feel more mature.
Alan Tudyk
[Clowns] gotten a really bad rap in the last few years. People have really given into their own fears and have celebrated their fears in that way. American Horror Story didn't help.
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
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.
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
Kaytoo [from the Star Wars] is more even-keeled. And he's a badass. He comes from the Empire, and he's a security droid. Some people call him an enforcer droid. He has the ability to enforce things. That was what he was built for. He's tall. He has an intimidating frame.
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 actually oddly have done another robot motion capture. I did Sonny in I, Robot.
