Alan Tudyk

If you've gone to a sci-fi convention, you've only seen half of it. 'Con Man' delivers what convention 'all-access' passes have only promised in the past.

It was a different job in that, because it's a 'Star Wars' movie and I'm a droid in a 'Star Wars' movie, people have a reverence for those characters that have come before me.

We need a guy who plays dodge ball and thinks he's a pirate - get me Alan Tudyk on the phone!' Those are the jobs I do.

I think I once went three or four years without doing a play, and I almost lost my mind, then I came back and did 'Spamalot.'

If you go back and watch the original 'V,' you're like, 'Oh, I thought this was great. It kind of looks really cheesy.'

Once you're in a musical, there is a huge opportunity for that, singing and dancing, 'Aha!' and 'Tada' at the end of the numbers; but it's a different kind of discipline you have to go through to maintain that kind of performance.

Noah's daughter is different from the girls of 'Suburgatory.' She goes to Brown, so she's in college, and she's very smart. And his wife is very much a very strong woman. She's certainly in charge at his house. She's Dallas's polar opposite.

I got the Clarence Durbin Award, the Equity Award - which is cool because it has a cash prize which is cooler than a trophy, especially when you're a struggling actor, and you can't pay rent.

A lot of film acting is about being casual.

As an actor, you don't want to say, 'I'm going to be loud and big.' Because that looks awful; that looks fake.

I guess I'm attracted to things that are fun. I guess what is fun about this role in 'Suburgatory' is that there's a lot of room to play around.

That's the great thing about Comic Con - people are so accepting of one another.
