Disney+ is in the midst of seeing the Avengers franchise continue to come to life, with Loki arriving to the streaming platform earlier this month.
Without dropping too much of spoiler type info for anyone who is yet to tuck into the show, Tara Strong, the voice of animated, Roger Rabbit type character, Miss Minutes recently sat down for an interview with Entertainment Weekly.
They spoke on what it was like to voiceover the character, as well as why for her, it has been one of the best animated projects she’s ever worked on in her career. And she’s worked on everything from Timmy Turner from The Fairly OddParents, Bubbles from Powerpuff Girls and more.
Strong said, “It’s a very collaborative process because of how beautiful the animation is. Sometimes even the most simplistic animation can be visually so exciting to watch. Like you have this very futuristic world with the ’60s or ’70s type animation, and then the writing is interesting on top of giving all this exposition.”
For Strong, Miss Minutes is a character TV hasn’t really encountered before. Which is particularly exciting. She said, “I just think it’s such an interesting character that we’ve really never seen before. Certainly in that second episode where we see that she can become holographic and come to life and swat the desk, it’s like, ‘Oh, we didn’t know she could do that.’ And that’s sort of happened organically with me through this process.”
On live-action, animation projects, Strong feels as though there aren’t too many in history who have absolutely perfected it, “there are so few, I think, that have actually really done it well where it’s not taking you out of the moment.” She continued, “It has to be done so masterfully, so seamlessly.”
“I think this version of that world and how they’ve designed it is unique and is its own living, breathing thing where they really have brought those worlds together. It just all feels like an authentic experience for Loki. And that means that they’ve done it right.”
