I am beyond excited about my trip to Los Angeles for the premiere of Disney/Pixar’s Brave and the opening of Disney’s Cars Land (and a little bit stressed about all I have to do before I leave next Sunday). I was hoping that you, my loyal readers, could help me check off one thing from my to-do list. Next Monday, I’ll be interviewing several people from Brave, and thought it would be perfect if I went to the interviews with questions from my readers!
I’ll be interviewing Kelly Macdonald (voice of “Merida”), Kevin McKidd (voice of “Lord MacGruffin”) and Craig Ferguson (voice of “Lord Macintosh”), and well as BRAVE Director Mark Andrews and Producer Katherine Sarafian and La Luna Director Enrico Casarosa.
What would you love to ask the voices and the directors behind Pixar’s latest movie?
BRAVE Synopsis
Since ancient times, stories of epic battles and mystical legends have been passed through the generations across the rugged and mysterious Highlands of Scotland. In “Brave,” a new tale joins the lore when the courageous Merida (voice of Kelly Macdonald) confronts tradition, destiny and the fiercest of beasts.
Merida is a skilled archer and impetuous daughter of King Fergus (voice of Billy Connolly) and Queen Elinor (voice of Emma Thompson). Determined to carve her own path in life, Merida defies an age-old custom sacred to the uproarious lords of the land: massive Lord MacGuffin (voice of Kevin McKidd), surly Lord Macintosh (voice of Craig Ferguson) and cantankerous Lord Dingwall (voice of Robbie Coltrane). Merida’s actions inadvertently unleash chaos and fury in the kingdom, and when she turns to an eccentric old Witch (voice of Julie Walters) for help, she is granted an ill-fated wish. The ensuing peril forces Merida to discover the meaning of true bravery in order to undo a beastly curse before it’s too late.
Directed by Mark Andrews and Brenda Chapman, and produced by Katherine Sarafian, “Brave” is a grand adventure full of heart, memorable characters and the signature Pixar humor enjoyed by audiences of all ages. The film takes aim at theaters on June 22, 2012, and will be presented in Disney Digital 3D™ in select theaters.

You could ask Craig Ferguson if Chelsea Handler ever bought him that chair…just kidding!!
No, in all seriousness, I’d like to hear them discuss the process of voice acting and what it was like working with the animators to bring these characters to life. The work that goes on behind-the-scenes with filmaking and animation is fascinating to me.
We’re seeing this movie next week and I can’t wait!
