I'm Just More Comfortable With

Bryan Cranston Is Generous, He's Funny. When We Did A Wedding Scene [in The Infiltrator ], At The End Of The Movie With A Big Set Piece, He Put The Veil Off The Bride, He Put It On, He Pretended Like We Were Getting Married, He's Just A Goof.

I Did 40 Voices For Chris Wedge, The Director Of The First Film, Before Coming Up With The Version We Used. He Was Hard To Please, I Don't Know Why. I Gave Him Really Slow Talking Voices. Then I Thought Perhaps Sid Could Be An Indian Sounding Sloth. To Find Out More About My Character, I Watched Footage Of Sloths. I Discovered That The Food They Store In Their Pouches Rots And Ferments And Half The Time They're Drunk.

Voices Come To Me But To Maintain Them Is Hard Work. They Go Away Just As Easily, So I Have To Remember Them And That Takes Work. With Sid, I Needed To Make Sure You Could Understand What He Is Saying, His Enunciation. Sometimes I Couldn't Even Say My Own Name [his Name] In His Voice. It Sounds Like 'shid', It Sounds A Bit Like He Has A Lisp.

First I Went To C.w. Post And I Was A Psychology And Theater Major And Then I Transferred To Nyu's Tisch School Of The Arts As A Drama Major.

Sid [the Character From 'ice Age'] Is A Prehistoric Sloth. Sloths Move Really Slowly And They Store Food In The Cheek Pouches. That's Where I Got The Voice That You Hear. He Had To Sound As Though He Was Storing Food.
