I got too excited for a second because "villager" doesn't sound like the biggest part, but yay anyway! I wonder if this makes it more or less likely that she'll get future Disney voice acting parts. I'm hoping it's the former.

She recorded a song yesterday for the movie! Plus, a surprise actor...

We should be getting the full cast next week with the trailer, a la Frozen

Is this going to turn into Frozen, where anyone who ever sneezed in a 10-foot radius of Bobby Lopez was cast?

Annaleigh Ashford has a solo in Fixer Upper, as a matter of fact! And a couple of lines here and there, too.

That's the one! She talks about it a little here, that they were just recording choral background vocals, and they asked her and some others to do some lines that were planned to be re-recorded by other people in LA, so she didn't even know she was in the movie until it was released!

I'm not automatically thinking Leslie. I'm thinking it's someone else from Hamilton, but that could be anyone. Whatever, we'll find out soon enough.

It's only common sense for the characters in Moana to be voiced by Polynesian actors. It doesn't matter if we can see the actors' faces or not."

 

This is the dumbest BS I have ever read. I loved Linda Larkin and Lea Salonga as princess Jasmine.

 

Uproar in this case is for the pathetic.
