00:00You are channeling Tales today, I would say.
00:02Thank you! A little bit.
00:04I mean, this has got to be amazing.
00:06I think back to the first film and how
00:08and I feel a mea culpa about this, about Ugly Sonic
00:10because we all doubted him.
00:12I feel bad we call him that.
00:14I know!
00:16But I'm so grateful that everyone trusted
00:18you know, Jeff Fowler and the
00:20animators to do right by the
00:22franchise and they did.
00:24It's the definition of trust the process.
00:26But now being here, I mean,
00:28how has this franchise
00:30surprised you? I mean, in every
00:32way. I think that when you step into
00:34a world where there's such huge fandom
00:36to see the love and like, you know
00:38the excitement of all ages
00:40for this franchise and this film
00:42it's really just incredible that people
00:44allow themselves to be geeky and
00:46love stuff, you know? It's just like
00:48allowing yourself to
00:50have something that you love and just like
00:52you know, following it everywhere.
00:54Rachel's my favorite character.
00:56Oh, thank you. It's like she doesn't even
00:58mean to be there. It's like she's just trying to
01:00get married. She's just trying to get by.
01:02She's just trying to get by and in Bus Sonic
01:04every time. How do you describe
01:06how she's feeling and what
01:08we can expect from her this time
01:10around? I think without any spoilers
01:12I think people can expect the unexpected
01:14and I think that, yeah, when I
01:16got the call from Jeff to do it I was just like, I dropped
01:18everything, got on a plane to London and
01:20was excited to play around with them and
01:22I think audience are going to enjoy it.
01:24Randall? How do her and Randall stand
01:26when we pick things up? Yes.
01:28We'll see. We'll see. He's
01:30in a little bit of trouble but you know
01:32you'll see what happens.
01:34There's not a lot I can say but you'll see what happens.
