What They’re Saying:

  • Don Cheadle on portraying Donald Duck: “You’ve got to do your homework and bring your A-game when you’re trying to voice Donald Duck … What makes a duck tick? What does a duck want? What will a duck sacrifice for what he wants? And these are questions that people have been pondering for many, many centuries.”
