Samuel L. Jackson Returns to Voice Over Work
Jackson has become one of the most recognized and highly regarded actors in Hollywood. He is now changing history for Garfield when he stars as Vic in the Alcon Entertainment animated feature film. He has voiced characters in animated feature films such as Turbo, The Incredibles, and The Incredibles 2. Jackson also voiced the titular character in the manga series Afro Samurai. Not many actors have been able to go from comedies to dramas to animated films like him. The details of his role as Vic in the Alcon Entertainment animated feature film Garfield have not yet been released. It is definitely a different take on the lazy orange cat’s story. Samuel L. Jackson has kept himself busy, most recently starring in the Apple TV+ limited series The Last Days of Ptolemy Grey. Fans of Jackson and Garfield will have to wait for the first trailer to see what Vic is all about.
