I have a secret aspiration to be considered for a part where it doesn't matter what you look like to play it.
Fred MelamedI haven't appeared on stage in quite a long time and I don't have any immediate plans to do so, but I'm always interested in going back.

Fred MelamedThe voice-over world has changed radically in the time that I've been in it. It used to be this rather small, select group of people who did 90 percent of the work. Now it's kind of the reverse: 90 percent of the work is done by this very broad mix of people all over the country, and the guys who used to be the go-to guys are a much smaller percentage now. But there was this massive interest in voice-over as well as in the story, so I think that also added to the film's appeal.
