I Consider Myself A Character Actor.

With All The Technology We're Inventing And What They're Coming Up With Scientifically, People Are Having Longer Lifetimes. It's Scary, But In The Same Sense It's Also Very Exciting.

I Would Hope With All My Heart That People Understand This And See It In The Film. And There Are Also Other Messages In Happy Feet, Like Racial And Environmental Ones, But None Of Them Are So Overt.

I Consider Myself A Character Actor.

I Got A Phone Call From George Miller [the Director] Asking Me To Play This Role. We Sat Down And He Showed Me On His Computer A Documentary-type Montage Sequence Of Real Penguins Swimming, In An Esther Williams Synchronized Sort Of Way, And Doing Things I Have Never Seen Them Do. Then He Explained His Vision Of The Film, Asked Me To Read The Script And To Voice The Character. I Was Cast A Little Bit Later, And He Let Me Do The Singing As Well!

You Actually Can Make It, No Matter What. I Truly Am A Firm Believer In That. Eminem's Living Proof.
