Alan Tudyk moves between live action, animation and performance as memorable machines.
El Paso, Texas, USA
From stage to voices of many worlds
Alan Tudyk was born in El Paso, Texas, on 16 March 1971. He attended the Juilliard School and worked on stage as well as screen, including the original Broadway cast of Spamalot.
He played pilot Wash in Firefly and Serenity. His later screen work includes K-2SO in Rogue One, a droid whose dry delivery shows how voice and performance can give a mechanical character personality.
Tudyk voiced King Candy in Wreck-It Ralph and Gary, a robot, in Superman. These roles sit alongside a varied career in live action and animation rather than within a single genre.
His performances invite attention to rhythm and delivery: a pause or change in tone can make a character funny, uneasy or unexpectedly sympathetic.
