A number of months ago, Disney-Pixar announced that a sequel to 2003s FINDING NEMO was given the green light and Albert Brooks and Ellen DeGeneres would return to voice neurotic clown fish father Marlin and forgettable flounder Dory respectively. A title of FINDING DORY was confirmed and that the main plot would centre of the DeGeneres’ character as she sets out to reunite with her family one year after the original animated classic.
Well, you can now add Willem Dafoe to the list of returnees as he’s already began recording his unmistakable tones to Gill, the scar-faced leader of the rag-tag bunch of “sharkbait” kept in the tank at the Aussie dentists office. When asked by Total Film about his possible reprisal, the two-time Oscar-nominee said:
Yeah I’ve already started. It’s even better than the first. It’s fantastic. It’s difficult to repeat a success and so many years afterwards, but it’s really cool. I’ve done one session so far and I just am going to have such a good time.
FINDING DORY is set to swim into theatres on the 17th June 2016. It will also feature (so far) Diane Keaton, Ty Burrell and Eugene Levy.
