“When I auditioned, they were looking for a dual vocalist by Brie Larson. So they sent in a clip of Brie Larson from the movie and I felt great, I could do it and I did it and a month later they were like you booked. And that was my first voice at work. I think I’ll sound like Brie Larson, I won’t get any credit, they’ll say it’s her. Until the day the first episode came out and it had my name on, my agents were like you can’t talk about it, you can’t say anything, you can’t promote yourself, you can’t do anything whatever until we see it’s you or Brie Larson.

And I’ve been there with people like Samuel L.Jackson and Mark Ruffalo and I feel OK, this is great, this is not what I expected for my life. Because it’s Disney, they don’t give you episodes, they just give you your lines, well, my scenes […] and then you’re in a big room, a giant audio studio, and it’s just you standing there and they haven’t done any animations so you’re thinking about what it’s going to look like in your brain, imagine what they want it to be and go after it. “
