If there’s one fact most people won’t dispute, it’s that a movie can only be as good as its characters, and while he certainly isn’t the star of the show, you just can’t deny the sleazy charm of the Duke of Bootleg himself, Duke Weaselton. He certainly knew how to make the most of his time in the spotlight. But the thing about an animated character is that you need a good actor behind them to bring the character to life, and Alan Tudyk did a fantastic job bringing the shifty weasel to the animated screen.
This shouldn’t come as a big surprise to those who know him, Alan has been a veteran character actor for decades now, bringing his eccentric charm to many different roles over the years, including quite a lot of Disney movies. Roles that he now has the chance to reflect on thanks to a recent video Variety posted on YouTube. Join Alan as he goes over many of the roles he’s played over the years including that of our favorite animated weasel. Do you think he remembers that one? Guess you’ll have to watch and find out.
Check the video out down below or over on YouTube. Maybe it’ll convince you to check out some of his work. Or heck, maybe he portrayed a character you loved and didn’t even realize it was him. I mean I certainly enjoy learning things like that.
