Collider has an interview with versatile actress and rising voice talent Emmanuelle Chriqui. In the interview, Chiriqui is asked about her upcoming voice work in the Disney animated series Tron: Uprising, to which she revealed her casting in the Thundercats 2011 Cartoon.
“Yeah, I suddenly have a budding career in voice-over work. I’m doing ThunderCats right now, and I did the pilot for Tron. It supposedly got picked up, but I have no idea when we’re going to be filming more. But, Tron was the first time I read a pilot for voice-over work where I was like, “I have to do this.” I love doing voice-over. It’s so fun. But, the audition process, obviously, isn’t the same. It was the first time where I was literally like, “Did I get it? Did we get feedback yet? I really love this part!” It’s really well written, like a real television show.”
Collider has confirmed that the role is that of Cheetara. With yesterday’s announcement that Kevin Michael Richardson with play Panthro and Will Friedle will be voicing Lion-O, the main cast is nearly complete.
