Jack Black in Cars 2?

Haha, he actually said that? That’s a pretty funny quote!

Anyway, today I checked Wikipedia, and it doesn’t mention anything about Jack Black or Dustin Hoffman anymore.

No, it’s just in the Pixar wiki now.

Here’s the video of him saying it

Oh, thanks for the memories!

Looks like he’ll be taking his chequebook to Pixar, this time. :slight_smile:

“The name’s Black. Jack Black. Super-secret automobile agent.” :sunglasses:

Don’t believe Wikipedia unless you already know it or there’s a link/reference to it.

Wasn’t a James Bond or something gonna play McMissle?

I hope so. At least they already had Timothy Dalton in Toy Story 3, so they could use him again.

But my crazy dream is that they could have Sean Connery out of retirement and convince him to play the role. I know the chances are little.

That would be crazy awesome! Sean Connery is a good actor, but whenever i hear his name, I think of the SNL Will Ferril Celebrity jeopardy sketches!

I would very much like for Mr Dalton to return to voice another Pixar character. The preview of what is apparently Finn McMissile in Andy’s room looks suspiciously like the Aston Martin V8 Vantage that Tim drove in ‘The Living Daylights’:

:slight_smile:

Yes, any of the Bonds would work. I just think Sean Connery would add a lot more of meaning to it, but I don’t think they can’t talk him out of his retirement.

I’m not really a fan of Jack Black, and that might partly be because of the fact that I do associate him heavily with Dreamworks. He just seems like one of those actors employed by animation companies to voice characters simply because he’s well known and so can be part of an ‘all-star cast’, as is often boasted. But then again, if Pixar consider his voice to be the perfect fit for one of their Cars 2 characters, so be it.

Still, as others have said, Wikipedia is not the most reliable of sources so we’ll probably have to wait and see about this one.

I’m not that fond of Jack Black either, but it’s more because I don’t like his kind of humor that much (but he’s done a couple of movies that are worth of being watched).

And I think we can’t associate an actor with a company, because they can switch in any moment. Think in Reese Witherspoon, for instance, or in Kristen Schaal, who did appear in Shrek 4 and also in TS3.

Guys…it’s fake. :unamused: It’s just some stupid person who put that there. I check that Wikipedia page like 50 times a day because I’m nuts. :open_mouth: The cast and stuff keeps changing. No one knows (except for the obvious characters) who is going to be in Cars 2.

Jack Black doing a British accent for a role in Pixar after he does roles in Pixar’s rival? Yeah, don’t think so. :confused:

Are you talking about the Pixar Wiki? One example is that before TS3 the page said Elissa Knight was voiceing a doll called Lil and Lou Romano was voiceing a doll called Phil. And obviously that wasn’t in the movie. I don’t really trust Pixar wiki that much when it comes to upcoming films

Oh, the Lil and Phil fiasco. I almost forgot it :unamused:

Yes, we’re not saying we are buying this informations. We are just wondering how would things be if they were true.

Yeah, now it says Jeff Bridges is playing Fillmore and that Craig Ferguson is playing Red. How can Craig Ferguson play Red? All he did was cry. It’s not that hard to find the archive recordings of Joe Ranft, people!

In fact I think they DID confirm they would use Joe Ranft recordings long ago.

No, the actual Wikipedia. I apologize for the confusion.
