![]() It's kind of like I get to hang around with someone that's really famous, because I can turn it on and off. I knew the character so well, that it kind of became a part of me. So for several years, I kind of was, "Okay, this could kind of go away really quickly, as quick as it came."īut by the time the movie came out, I felt really ensconced in the character. When I got the job, they don't say, "You're it from now on," it was just for that one job. Goofy was my favorite character when I was growing up and watching TV with my dad." And I thought it'd be so cool to voice him. When I came to California in 1986 and the audition came up, I thought, "Oh cool. I feel like I'm one of the luckiest guys, that I got that particular role. You kind of just mentioned it, but what is it like to have multiple generations of fans who are so familiar with your portrayal of Goofy? Of any of the things that I've done - and I've probably done 4,000 shows for Disney over the years - that single one event and project probably has had more comments to me than any other thing. ![]() ![]() It's kind of become even more of a bonding kind of a movie. I couldn't talk to my dad, but we'd watch that movie together and it kind of became our bonding picture."Īnd now, 25 years later, the parents have seen it when it came out, and now their kids are seeing it. But over the years, especially in the last four or five years, fans have been coming up to me at comic-cons and conventions and things and saying, "That movie meant so much. Yeah! Gosh, when it first came out, it wasn't a big tentpole picture, it was kind of this little picture. What has it been like to revisit that, and see the movie have this sort of legacy all of these years later? Yeah, it's been kind of fun reliving that and revisiting it after all these years. So I'm very excited to get to talk to you.īill Farmer: Oh, thank you so much. : I actually rewatched A Goofy Movie, last night and I forgot just how absolutely perfect it is.
