“We are going back to the roots”: Eric Bauza on Looney Tunes – The Day the Earth Blew Up

Perhaps the name Eric Bauza doesn’t ring a bell to most of the viewers, but that might be the case with every voice actor. We know him through his characters and the way he gives them life. And, Bauza, the recipient of three Emmy Awards, is currently responsible for voicing most of the characters in recent Looney Tunes productions. Now, he is back (as both Daffy Duck and Porky Pig) in the newest animation set in the beloved universe.

The Upcoming spoke with Bauza about what we can expect from the latest instalment in the Looney Tunes series, working on his voice and how emotionally attached he is to all of his cartoonish characters.
