Harry Vanderspeigle is my favourite Alan Tudyk's role. He's perfectly cast and so convincing in both comedic and dramatic moments. I heartily recommend Resident Alien to anyone who has missed it so far.🌟
I was uncomfortable at the start now I can't hear Tudyk and not think of Harry Vanderspeigle. 😅
We can't wait for season 3
He is hilarious 😂 in that show. It's something that can be easily overlooked but his acting in that show is top tier. Him as the actual alien falls flat a bit but only because his physical comedy is just as good as his voice acting and the 2 together is just plain enjoyable to watch.
@jkosh2046 when we started watching resident alien, my wife remarked how bad his acting was. She didn't understand how good the acting had to be to make it look that bad.
Agreed. I love that show. I watch it over n over again. I get bummed waiting for the next season, hoping they wont shut it down
“I went to Julliard” I love that so much
I laughed so much at that XD
Same. It always makes me laugh.
Tudyk is basically Walt Disney Animation Studios' acquivalent of Pixar's John Ratzenberger. He is and will always be 👑🍬 King Candy to me.... Also, his take on Optimus Prime was pretty damn refreshing as a successor to Peter Cullen
Earth spark as a whole is great, I mean we have fucking Keith David as grimlcok😂 and Alan is a worthy optimus
Speaking of John Ratzenberger, he hasn't participated in any Pixar projects after Onward.
Um no. Ratz keeps his same voice for every character and only did animated films.
I agree. And I'm not losing my marbles. And I love the performance of the Duke of Weaseltown. [Wesselton!] And the toucan in "Encanto" would have helped me understand how different toucans and puffins are after I mistook Top Wing Brody for a toucan. What a caw-caw-catastrophe!

@@aidanhever3369 now I'm wondering if he'll return for Toy Story 5 to be Hamm again
Alan Tudyk's voice acting is incredible! I love how the voices he uses for animated characters are so realistic that you can't even tell that it's him doing the voice, That's a real voice acting range right there!!!
"I am a Leaf on the Wind, watch how I- [soar]." a stronger line will never punch me in the gut. Hoban Washburne was, imho, his MOST iconic role and lives in my head rent free.
He's criminally underrated. Rewatching Firefly for the umpteenth time and he still makes me laugh.
%100 same. He is awesome!
If only they would bring back Firefly.... not a reboot... but just a continuation of the series before the events of Serenity.
Bro. 😢
I got the chance to meet Alan Tudyk in 2017. I asked him if he could say, “Have some Candy!” and when he did, I couldn’t stop laughing!
Awesome, you’re so lucky. Glad he’s a nice guy about it.
I know this is about Disney, but I love him in Resident Alien. His comedic timing is on point.
I adore Resident Alien!!! He's an incredible actor as well as one of the best voice actors around, second only to the late Robin Williams!
Oh yeah, really underrated tv show! He's amazing in it ✨
I totally agree! He's amazing.
His voice acting is incredible but he is just as talented when seen. His performance in Death at a Funeral has to be one of the best comedic performances ever. It is a true gift.
A Knight's Tale was my first introduction to him, and it was wonderful. Every experience since has just been delightful!
Fell in love w him after watching Dale & Tucker vs Evil! He’s got the look AND sound AND personality that’s one of a kind & naturally hilarious!!! ❤
My favorite of his live action roles is as Wash in Firefly, and his voiceover as King Candy in Wreck-It Ralph, especially when he turns into Turbo, and then into the mutated cybug.
This guys officially a NATIONAL TREASURE 👏🏼👏🏼❤
I really like and appreciate the variety of Alan Tudyk’s voice works. He reminds me of another VA, Dee Bradley Baker, who voices a lot of characters as well, whether they speak with words or with their own animalistic tongues.
It would seem Alan Tudyk and Dee Bradley Baker are the ones serving as Frank Welker's successor in voice acting roles.
Whether they be human, humanoid, creature, or animal. They can do it all.
I've been watching Alan Tudyk in Resident Alien, while thinking back on all his roles and just how amazingly talented he is. It's hard to believe he has done so many roles in what seems like a short amount of time.
My favorite Alan Tudyk voice character will always be my man Krei! Also, just a room full of Tudyk's voice characters would have been such a good idea! I can't believe Disney scrapped it!
From Wreck-it Ralph to Wish. I think he’s amazing
He also voiced the Joker and Clayface from Harley Quinn: TAS. No wonder his goat character sounds so familiar.
K2SO in voice, but Wash in Firefly to see his expressive face. I love Alan Tudyk
This man does 👏 not 👏 miss 👏
Alan has voiced nearly kg my favourite Disney characters, who'd have guessed?! He's such a treasure!
I find it hilarious that Disney made a funny joke for Alan Tudyk’s characters Duke of Wesselton and Duke Weaselton
Yes, I noticed that too!
My favorite role is in 28 Days with Sandra Bullock. The fork analogy scene cracks me up.
He will always be Wash to me 🍃
My favorite disney Alan Tudyk roles are Alester Krey and King Candy/Turbo.
I love this Disney voice actor!
Mel Blanc is the first voice animated actor to voice a lot of characters until years later Dee Bradley Baker came and then, Alan Tudyk. I love voice actors
There were quite a few other voice acting legends in between those, like Daws Butler and Paul Frees.
he is an absolute legend
those who agree
👇
I agree🙋🏾♂️
Alan Tudyk is one of my favourite under-the-radar actors. Dodgeball, A Knight's Tale, I, Robot? I love those movies a lot, but for me, his voice acting roles are topped with King Candy. As a guy who loves to do voice-acting, i take my inspiration from the same places as Tudyk. Keep on going, man! Hollywood's not done with you yet!
loving resident alien and really really miss firefly made me cry in dodgeball love seeing him in everything incredibly talented and seems like a super nice and kind human
Alan Tudyk as King candy was so good and that he's playing as Valtino in Wish omg I kinda thought he sounded like one of the characters from Star Trek awesome work Alan can't wait to see more of your work
He's in ABCs The Rookie as Elroy, a Crime scene clean up guy..he's on twice so far. And his character is just perfectly played
``Wreck-It Ralph'' was a Disney animated film that featured popular characters from various video games.
I was very happy when all the Disney princesses from the past appeared in the sequel.
King Candy is still PEAK Disney to this date.
I loved him as King Candy! He sounded so much like Ed Wynn I had to google him and make sure he was still deceased!
I kept smiling throughout the whole video, I'm so glad Alan Tudyk is getting all the praise and love he deserves. King Candy is definitely my absolutely favorite, now favorite Disney character, and I CAN NOT imagine any other voice actor that would have made him as memorable and great of a villain as Alan. His vocal range is absolutely amazing, I can't wait to meet him one day.
Alan Tudyk next role get an Oscars
We will always support this channel. They're one of fhe best.
Resident Alien, Love It!!!Alan Tudyk's voice acting is on par with the UK's Jim Dale, who narrated the U.S. audiobooks for all seven novels in the Harry Potter series, for which he won two Grammy Awards.
If you haven't listened to them I Highly recommend them. My kids & I loved them all !!!
He's so talented!
"I am a leaf on the wind. Watch how I soar". I should get it tatooed.❤
"I went to Juilliard" - he was so sweet saying that haha
Firefly and Dollhouse were awesome live action roles 👌
I love this guy and his work
one of the most underrated men in Hollywood. Resident Alien is AMAZING!! And his role as Gerhardt in 28 days is EPIC!! (not to mention he is sexy as hell!!!!)
Alan Tudyk is a combination of Jim Carrey x Robbin Williams
Yes with that rubbery face of his and quick wit. Wonderful. I'd seen him before but Resident Alien got me hooked on his work.
Alan Tudyk voiced Lenny, Dab, and Freaky Mammal in Ice Age, Cholly in Ice Age: The Meltdown, and Milton and Male Siren in Ice Age: Continental Drift.
Love this guy's talent! Wonder if they would release video of him doing the different voices while in the studio? He looks like he really gets into character. Maybe they used his expressions to make the films more true to life?
I felt like i was watching a DVD special feature, how nostalgic! Thanks , Emely, and a happy tuesday afternoon to you as well. Take care and God bless you. Greetings from Colombia to you as well.
I love the dodo bird from the first Ice Age. "If you weren't smart enough to plan ahead than DOOM ON YOU!!"
That was him?
0:37
This is my favorite movie of his, not because I don’t watch cartoons, I do, but because I love Dodgeball.
I never knew that the dude who played Steve the Pirate in Dodgeball would end up being Disney’s Good Luck Charm!
This is awesome!
You just broke my brain. I didn't realize he did so many choices. Mind completely BLOWN!
Tudyk is an amazing voice actor! I was beyond amazed just how many characters he’s voiced😱😱 but I also loved him as Dutch in Transformers and Harry in Resident Alien. Just an incredible actor!
He is AMAZING!!! LOVE HIM💜🤗👍
I love him in Resident Alien on syfy!
Great show. The new season is great.
Resident Alien is astronomically astonishing, with what Tudyk does with the script, of this, out of this world, alien that's becoming humanized. .
Top 5 Laura Bailey voice roles:
1. Shin-Chan (Crayon Shin-Chan)
2. Maka Albarn (Soul Eater)
3. Tohru Honda (Fruits Basket)
4. Black Widow (Avengers Assemble)
5. Kid Trunks (Dragon Ball Z)
His best role ever and my favorite, is Harry Vanderspeigle in Resident Alien. Brilliant performance
I hope the series stays on and available for free on Sci-Fi.I don't want to pay any more $ to watch it.😢
I love all of his characters ❤ He is so versatile and cute in all his roles.
Ah what about him in “Tucker & Dale Vs. Evil?” He played a hillbilly skinny dude named Tucker who caught by these dumb college kids who thought they’re slasher killers? It’s a horror comedy gem.
We have to go hide all of the sharp objects!!
Lol, love that movie. 😆
Exactly.....love tucker and Dale vs evil.
I have loved this man's work for so long and every time I bring up his name my friends have no idea who I'm talking about, BUT then I start listing everything I know they have seen and the look of shock on their faces is incredible.
I will always love the first 2 movies I saw him in; A Knight's Tale and I, Robot. They're movies I enjoy so much; sadly, not enough people I know have seen them. And for dumb comedy, Tucker and Dale vs Evil
I love Alan. He is definitely underrated.
Edit:
Fave Tudyk role is definitely Tucker, from Tucker & Dale vs. Evil.
Also let's not forget his opening scene with Matt Damon in Deadpool 2. Classic.
Tucker - in Tucker and Dale vs Evil. King Candy is awesome too
Hei-Hei is my favorite Alan Tudyk's role🐓💖
I didn't know!😮 Awesome! I loved his small but funny part in 28 days. 😊 with sandra bullock
Wow! He’s amazing
I didn’t know he was so versatile.
I’m obsessed with him in resident alien
So talented.
Pure talent and dedication right here. Not enough of that in younger actors these days.
I loved him as Gerhardt in “28 Days”. So did Mum. He always made reference to his “package”. 🤣🤣🤣
The security gaurd in transformers 3 has to be the best.
All puffy and soft then whips out a shotty and hopds the whole room down. 😂
I didn't know he did some of those voices. He is amazing.
He never gets credit for his role in 28 Days. He was so good in that movie.
I find it ironic that he voiced the Mad Hatter in Once Upon A Studio since King Candy was inspired by the latter in two ways his appearance and voice.
My favorite is his role in Death at a Funeral. I've followed his work ever since.
I really, REALLY like this format of video! I hope there are more to come similar to this :)
Yay, thank you!
Tucker and Dale was his role in live action I always remembered by his current role on Resident Alien has got to be my new favorite for him.
Alan Tudyk is basically Jeff Dunham humor, Robin Williams timing, and Mel Blanc skill wrapped in a handsome package.
I love this guy when he was in the show resident alien
I loved him in 28 days.
All!!! But especially Wash, Sonny, both made me cry and then Knights Tale, Harry, and HeyHey
I knew he was talented from watching him in "Firefly/Serendipity", "Dodgeball", and "Alien Resident", but I had NO idea he did all those other voices! No surprise Mel Blanc and Robin Williams were his inspiration.
And now that I know he played Weselton & Weasalton, the job makes sense and is brilliant!
His role in resident alien is so underrated and hilarious!!
Great Actor 😊💜❤️
Very very great epic list I like it a lot very very great job mis mojo one of my absolute favorite list ever he is a great voice actor in everything he does 😊❤❤
He was hysterical in Dodgeball!!
He was also in “28 days” with Sandra bullock. His final scene was so funny in that movie
In top 5 comedians in the World.. It's a happiness that this man was born was alive and is alive for us, for our enjoyment.
I think the first thing I ever remember seeing him in was Hearts in Atlantis
I agree with the fans that wanted a moment with a gathering of Tudyk's characters for Once Upon a Studio. That would have been so cool! But I'm happy that his voice made it into the short as the Mad Hatter. He deserves it!
I’m so happy for his success!
Loved him in Doom Patrol
Absolutely love him!! ♥️Love Resident Alien!! ❤️♥️🔥🥰🎉
Despite his many voices my favorite character Tudyk has embodied, my favorite was Wash from Firefly. It saddened me that he was killed off in Serenity. His character was definitely not a hero type but to me was much braver at his core than Baldwin's Jane character, who was practically scared of his own shadow. Although I loved all the characters and their flaws, I felt that Baldwin's Jane should have been the one to be sacrificed in Serenity. I feel that Tudyk and Torres' relationship was more important. It was an interesting matchup with Tudyk being the an obvious Beta Male chosen by Torres' Alpha Female to be her mate. Though the relationship wasn't explored very deeply, it was kind of hinted at that in private away from everyone else, their Alpha vs Beta roles might just be reversed, suggesting that their public displays of authority and power dynamics was an agreed upon facade.
So with Torres' being Widowed it left a relationship vacuum, despite Serenity being the wrap up of the storyline to give closure to fans and cast, many fans especially those with a talent for writing good fan fiction are forced to write their own stories without their relationship (IF) they feel the need to follow canon.
Resident Alien is my favorite, I had no idea he did all those voice overs. Such a versatile actor! ❤
If anyone hasnt watched Resident Alien yet you need to. I laugh my butt off every episode. Alan tudyk is a legend
I'd like him to use his Steve voice for a pirate.
He is truly the best. Talented, hilarious and multi talented. ❤ Livelong fan 🎉
Resident Alien rules 😁✨✨✨
Welcome to MsMojo, and today we’re looking at how Alan Tudyk became a guaranteed casting choice for every modern Disney animated movie.
Before this talented actor was named as the mouse house’s good luck charm, he was filling up his resume with a variety of iconic roles that put him on everybody’s radar. Tudyk played Wat in one of his personal favorite films, “A Knight's Tale.” A few years later, he made audiences laugh with his silly part as Steve the Pirate in “Dodgeball”. But many sci-fi fans fondly remember Tudyk as the eccentric and loveable pilot Wash in “Firefly”. In each of these roles, he charmed audiences with his natural charisma and energetic performances. Fortunately, those great qualities translated to an unforgettable lead vocal role in 2004.
Shortly after the turn of the century, Tudyk provided the voice and motion capture for the robot Sonny. Despite looking artificial and unreal, he truly made us believe that the character was a lively being with emotions and soul. His staggering performance was followed by a few smaller vocal roles. After playing Simone in “Alvin and the Chipmunks: Chipwrecked” and another robot in “Astro Boy”, Disney reps got in contact with Tudyk to ask a life-changing question:
Could he sound like the Mad Hatter from 1951’s “Alice in Wonderland”?
The reason why they wanted the actor to sound like the well dressed Lewis Carroll character boils down to “Wreck It Ralph’s” King Candy. Disney wanted the dangerous antagonist to sound like the silly and energetic version of Mad Hatter that the late Ed Wynn voiced in the 1951 film. When Tudyk’s agent found out what the studio needed, they told the Mouse House that the actor could do the voice…without actually asking him first. Fortunately, the performer was up for the challenge. Not only did Tudyk give Disney the King Candy they dreamed of, but he won an Annie Award for Voice Acting in a Feature Production. The studio would soon learn that his award winning work here wasn’t just a fluke.
Over the next few years, Tudyk was called back for each of their feature length animated films. He played the old and obnoxious Duke of Weselton in “Frozen”. A year later, audiences suspected that Tudyk’s Alister Krei would be revealed as the big bad of “Big Hero 6”. He followed that role by voicing an actual weasel in “Zootopia”. While all of Tudyk’s performances were great, his legend as Disney’s good luck charm wasn’t solidified until “Moana” debuted. There, he played the hilarious rooster Hei-hei. Although the character was originally going to be cut from the film, Tudyk was given a last minute rewrite where the rooster was dumbed down. The combination of a new script and the actor’s committed performance gave us a scene stealing bird that we couldn’t imagine leaving out of Moana’s story. Since that film marked the fifth Disney smash hit that Tudyk had been a part of, the studio wasn’t exactly ready to let him go.
The actor had a role in the next six animated films that the studio produced. In between parts, Tudyk lent his voice to Iago in the live-action “Aladdin” and the scroll in “Disenchanted.” And did we mention he played yet another robot named K-2SO in “Rogue One?” The actor’s sheer vocal variety ensured that no two characters sounded exactly the same. When asked how he developed the range that Disney has become fond of, Tudyk revealed that tv was key. He specifically shouted out the legendary Mel Blanc’s work on Looney Tunes as a major inspiration. Tudyk also credited watching Robin Williams on “Mork and Mindy” as another helpful step in developing his range. Thanks to all these influences and some traditional training, the performer could become anything from the expressive Tuk Tuk to the talkative KnowsMore. And just when you think you’ve watched a movie without him, you can check Imdb and be surprised that he played a role like Pico the toucan in “Encanto”. As a testament to his talent, fans wanted Tudyk to be recognized at a pivotal moment in Disney’s history.
When the studio was developing their “Once Upon a Studio” 100th anniversary special short, they asked their viewers who and what they’d like to see. There were reportedly a bunch of requests to include a room full of Tudyk’s Disney’s characters. While the studio ultimately passed on that suggestion, they did bring him for a spectacular moment. When Flounder needs to get into water quickly, the Mad Hatter’s hat is used as an impromptu fishbowl. The Wonderland character is perfectly voiced by Tudyk. Having the actor provide the voice he used to get his first role at Disney made it feel like his journey had truly come full circle. Thankfully, it wasn’t over yet.
After the special aired, Tudyk’s voice was still being heard in trailers for 2023”s “Wish”. His role as the talking goat Valentino let him flex his talent for animal sounds and over-the-top dialogue. Based on Tudyk’s history, this role won’t be his swan song for Disney. It seems highly likely that we’ll hear his voice in big and small studio parts for the rest of the decade and beyond.
Although Tudyk didn’t start his career as a voice actor, we think Disney will ensure he’ll get back in the booth to deliver more iconic performances for years to come.

the fact that he voiced clayface and the joker in harley quinn will forever have me!
