THR:
Walt Disney unveiled here Monday that two of the new characters in Cars 2 are voiced by John Turturro and Eddie Izzard.
The news was announced during an event tied to Toy Fair, which opened here this weekend.
Turturro is behind Italian race car and Lightning McQueen rival Francesco Bernoulli, Cars 2 director and Pixar and Walt Disney Amination Studios creative chief John Lasseter said in a video message at the event.
Christopher Nolan’s Oppenheimer walked into the 96th Academy Awards and blew everyone away, winning seven Oscars on the night. But is it Nolan's best film yet?
Cancel all proposed awards ceremonies and hand over the major gongs to Peter Farrelly's Ricky ;Stanicky.
Late Night with the Devil will be The Exorcist for a new generation.
Sounds like two very nice additions to me. Turturro is just awesome, period. Izzard, I think, is hilarious.
Would be interesting to see Izzard (intelligent British-ish humor) and Larry the Cable Guy ("dim-witted" Southern/Redneck humor) have some back and forth comedic banter.
Im interested to see what Eddie will bring to this film. He is funny and has a British humor, so it will be interesting. Cars 2 got all the more interesting lol.
I never liked Cars tbh. Probably the only Pixar movie I couldn't care less for.
