Almost done with all the celebrities I saw at this year’s WizWorld. Jeremy was a last-minute addition to the show. As you can see from the poster, he’s the voice of Adventure Time‘s Finn, the program’s main hero. I stupidly didn’t bother to get a picture with the guy, argh. He did like the poster and was curious about its origin.
Meanwhile, for my face time with him, I asked how he got to be the French child in Team America. According to Jeremy, he and his older brother auditioned for Matt Stone and Trey Parker about a week before the movie was released. I asked if he could already speak French. He said no, they just knew how to make the right sounds. It was a pretty audition he said. Did he get to see his handiwork? Just the Paris scenes, since Jeremy was a little kid then, he had to wait until he was old enough to understand the humor of the whole movie. Seems plausible.
