I'm a geeky actor, in the way that I like the craft of acting.
Alan Tudyk -
Vince Vaughn is a master improviser.

You know those people in life who are a bit eccentric and larger than life or a bit odd? That their realm of possibility around them is larger than somebody who's called normal? What's normal for an oddball? They could start screaming in public. That's fun to play.
Alan Tudyk -
I had a role in 'DodgeBall,' where I played a pirate who played dodge ball. I'd say 80 to 90 percent of my lines were 'Garrr' or 'Arghh.' And it was all about what the quality of your 'Grr-arr' was.
Alan Tudyk -
I did a stint on 'Dollhouse,' and prior to my stint on 'Dollhouse,' I had no plans to be working with Joss Whedon until he said, 'Hey, do you want to do this?' When he calls, I'll pick up the phone, and that's how that works.
Alan Tudyk -
I would say there's about 10 people who know that, that my car was called 'Old Sock.'
Alan Tudyk -
If you go back and watch the original 'V,' you're like, 'Oh, I thought this was great. It kind of looks really cheesy.'
Alan Tudyk -
I don't wear jewelry, as a man.
Alan Tudyk
-
I can tan. I get tannish. It's not really tan, it's tannish. That kind of color.
Alan Tudyk -
I think I once went three or four years without doing a play, and I almost lost my mind, then I came back and did 'Spamalot.'
Alan Tudyk -
I'm very interested in Comedia dell'Arte.
Alan Tudyk -
If something makes me laugh really hard, it sticks in my head or my heart or somewhere inside me.
Alan Tudyk -
I really like stuff that makes people laugh.
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.

Noah's daughter is different from the girls of 'Suburgatory.' She goes to Brown, so she's in college, and she's very smart. And his wife is very much a very strong woman. She's certainly in charge at his house. She's Dallas's polar opposite.
Alan Tudyk -
I trained as a stage actor and was given a lot of technical tools to play with.
Alan Tudyk -
I'm not so certain in life.
Alan Tudyk -
It was a different job in that, because it's a 'Star Wars' movie and I'm a droid in a 'Star Wars' movie, people have a reverence for those characters that have come before me.
Alan Tudyk -
'We need a guy who plays dodge ball and thinks he's a pirate - get me Alan Tudyk on the phone!' Those are the jobs I do.
Alan Tudyk -
As an actor, you don't want to say, 'I'm going to be loud and big.' Because that looks awful; that looks fake.

Once you're in a musical, there is a huge opportunity for that, singing and dancing, 'Aha!' and 'Tada' at the end of the numbers; but it's a different kind of discipline you have to go through to maintain that kind of performance.
Alan Tudyk -
I loved 'District 9.'
Alan Tudyk -
I certainly don't understand Fox's decision-making process.
Alan Tudyk -
I'm just thinking I'm just like a normal actor who gets scripts, and I read them, and... if I enjoy reading them, then that's what's exciting, then I get excited about the audition or the project itself.
