John DiMaggio Interview on CNN

I came across this pretty good article on CNN regarding voice over actors and their lack of use in big budget movies. The article and interview includes Futurama voice actor John DiMaggio.

CNN Voice Actor Article with John DiMaggio

Pretty good article and an item that I have often wondered about. These guys create so many great voices and characters but are consistently passed over for big name actors who can bring name appeal to their movies. It would be nice if these hard working actors can get a break every now and then and be involved with a bigger production. I always give kudos to Pixar as they do strive to bring the right voice to the character even if they are not well known but even they will typically look in house for voice over work and not necessarily those who work consistently in the field.
