Alan Tudyk says he got higher test scores than Will Smith during 'I, Robot' test screenings, which led him to being dropped from the film's publicity.

      “I w-I went to Juilliard” lol he sounds so disappointed to be voicing a chicken.

      edit i’m a huge fan of tudyk, maybe disappointed was the wrong word. more of a “sometimes you just have to laugh” tone. Also everyone needs to watch Resident Alien if you haven’t already. I think season 4 dropped recently

    Was it because Will Smith barely ever chooses to act? I know he can but he rarely plays anyone except Will Smith. Tudyk’s range is delightful. I loved him as Mr. Priest, for example.

    Alan Tudyk would probably have been a fine detective Spooner.

    Will Smith is a fine detective Spooner.

    It’s the casting’s director choice, it’s normal for actors who were not picked to be sore.
