Hugh Animated?!

by Randi

Okay, apparently I’m a moron (don’t tell my husband I said this, or he’ll lord it over me). I didn’t realize until this afternoon that Hugh is playing the voice of Dr. Cockroach, Ph.D. in DreamWork’s newest movie, Monsters vs. Aliens, coming out in 2009.

How sweet is this! Hugh will be a cockroach! Ha! The synopsis on IMDB states:

When a meteorite from outer space hits a young girl and turns her into a giant monster, she is taken to a secret government compound where she meets a ragtag group of monsters also rounded up over the years.

I love watching animated movies (I have 2 children and am subjected to them on a weekly basis), and I can’t WAIT to hear Hugh animated! Any guesses on if he’s going to have his regular accent or if he’ll put on his American accent?!

I think that’s Hugh’s character, right on the tall girl’s arm, dressed in the doctor’s coat. Ha! He eschews a coat when he’s playing House, but his animated character wears one! How funny is that?!

Hugh’s acting alongside some great names, such as Reese Witherspoon (Susan Murphy / Ginormica), Paul Rudd (Derek), Keifer Sutherland (General W.R. Monger), and Stephen Colbert (The President).
