ALAN TUDYK (Sonny) is the human inspiration and animation reference for the CGI technicians creating the fluid movements of this unique robot. Although Tudyk’s body and face will never be seen by film audiences, they will feel his thoughtful and gentle strength channeled through the hands of I, ROBOT’s CGI artists. Tudyk also provides the voice of Sonny.
Tudyk has become known for leading stage roles in off-beat productions as well as scene-stealing supporting turns in film. Last television season, he starred as Wash in “Firefly,” a science fiction/western fantasy. He reprises the role in the upcoming feature film “Serenity,” based on the series.
On the big screen, Tudyk stars as a self-styled “pirate” in the Twentieth Century Fox comedy “Dodgeball: A True Underdog Story” and in the upcoming thriller “RX: Sin receta.” He provided several of the voices in the animated feature film “Ice Age,” and he appears in the independent feature film “Ralph’s Club.” Tudyk is familiar to movie audiences from featured turns in several recent films:as Sir William’s squire Wat in “A Knight’s Tale” opposite Heath Ledger, as the cocaine-addicted German stripper Gerhardt in “28 Days” opposite Sandra Bullock, and as Monte Man in “Hearts in Atlantis” opposite Anthony Hopkins. His additional feature credits include “Wonder Boys” with Michael Douglas, “Patch Adams” starring Robin Williams, and “35 Miles to Normal.” After attending the Juilliard School, Tudyk appeared in several regional and off- Broadway productions before making his Broadway debut in Jerry Zak’s play “Epic Proportions” with Kristin Chenoweth. Other stage work includes “The Most Fabulous Story Ever Told,” “Oedipus Rex,” “Misalliance,” “Much Ado About Nothing,” “A Midsummer Night’s Dream” and “Bunny Bunny” for which he received both the Clarence Derwent and Drama League Awards for Best New York Debut of 1997.
