New Concept: Asian Actors Voicing Asian Cartoon Characters

MEDIA Posted: September 30, 2019 4:45 am

Whoa. For the new movie Abominable, Asian American and other actors of Asian descent play the Chinese cartoon characters. This, says a critic, is “an occurrence as rare as a solar eclipse. The last time I could remember this happening was more than 20 years ago with Disney’s Mulan.” (When this story was published, there were worries about how Abominable would do at the box office. Well, headlines say it all: ‘Abominable’ tramples the competition.) – The New York Times
