So I wasn't worried about it, if anything I was excited to see us explore this world of Sonic a little bit more, because it's been so familiar for so long, I wanted to be a part of a little bit of a different attempt at trying to maybe freshen it up a bit. I think anytime that you've got characters that have been around for a very long time you have to keep kind of tweaking and refreshing them to keep them relevant, and keep them fresh.

I'm actually okay with, and when you think about it you kind of have to with any of these iconic characters…do you think that Christian Bale's Batman is anything close to 1960s TV Batman? No, but they're still part of that same character family that we know and love. When you found out that they were rebooting Sonic with Sonic Boom, were you ever concerned that they might change the voices of the characters? I cannot believe the scope of this game, as far as Sonic games go, I am chomping at the bit to get a chance to get my hands on the game and super excited for fans to kind of get a Sonic game that I hope they feel is one, like we feel, that we've taken so much pride in doing what we're doing, that hopefully the fans are going to get a massive kick, because we've all had a ton of fun and are very, very proud of what we've done. We are having such a blast in the recording sessions for the TV series, and the game itself is epic. It was just another job that you were going in to audition for and see if you could get what the previous versions of the character were supposed to sound like, and that's what came to be.Īnd now to be involved with Sonic Boom, to where we're taking these characters and having so much fun with their relationships with one another, between Eggman and Sonic, and Sonic and Amy, and Amy and Knuckles, and everybody involved. I think Freeriders was one of the first ones that we had done, and then from there it became Colors and then I think Generations from there. I went in, auditioned, got a call back and I was in the game. They said they're trying to stay in the same vein, but wanted to try something a little different. I went in and they showed us some videos of previous versions of Sonic. Got a call from someone that I worked for in the past and they set up a time. The boring answer is just like any old audition. How did you end up getting involved with voicing Sonic?
