History Creator / AlanTudyk

** He wasn't always thus: as Wat in ''Film/AKnightsTale'' (admittedly one of his earliest roles) his English accent was serviceable but wobbled a lot from scene to scene. Since then he's gotten a lot better.

* ''Film/{{ThreeTen to Yuma|2007}}'' as Doc Potter (2007)

* ''WesternAnimation/YoungJustice2010'' as ComicBook/GreenArrow (2010–2013)

* CelebrityResemblance: To [[Film/PhantomOfTheParadise Gerrit]] [[Film/ChildsPlay2 Graham]], due to their beaky and tall appearances (not to mention how Tudyk's default hairstyle resembles Graham's from the mid-1980s to today), their character actor abilities to play disparate comedic and serious roles and being associated with Disney more then once (Graham himself had voice roles in ''WesternAnimation/TheLittleMermaid1989'' and ''WesternAnimation/{{Gargoyles}}'', had writing credit on the short cartoon ''WesternAnimation/ThePrinceAndThePauper'' and had made his early acting debut at age eight in a Detroit Art Institute stage production of ''Franchise/WinnieThePooh'', which would later become a well-known Disney-owned franchise). Also, both he and Graham had a role in their resumes as a comedic zombie with Tudyk being the TheOtherDarrin for Creator/NathanFillion's Gary on ''Series/SantaClaritaDiet'' to Graham's Bud the Film/{{CHUD}}

!Tropes associated with him:

* TookTheBadFilmSeriously: While he hasn't been any particularly bad films, he's definitely had less impressive roles; he played a non-anthropomorphic chicken in ''WesternAnimation/{{Moana}}'' and a random redneck in ''Film/Deadpool2''. It would have been easy to phone those in, but he says his policy is to give every role his all, and it shows.
** In ''Film/Deadpool2'' he had about a minute of screentime, a grand total of six lines, and was barely recognizable, but he still managed to be memorable simply because he's clearly paying close attention to his friend's bizarre rant about toilet paper.
** The director of ''WesternAnimation/{{Encanto}}'' [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lJ0vPNTNgYU&t=776s revealed]] that Tudyk schooled the creators on their inaccurate toucan noises, saying their existing noises were actually from some species of parrot, did a lot of research on actual toucan noises, and spent hours in the recording booth testing toucan noises and "responding" to English-language dialogue in toucan.

** At least in terms of his Disney roles, where he tends to play older, slimy, petty villains. This trend continues with his casting in ''WesternAnimation/{{Zootopia}}'' as [[WickedWeasel Duke Weaselton]]. [[PlayingAgainstType Averted]] in ''WesternAnimation/{{Moana}}'', where he voices the animal sidekick.
