Jim Cummings Was the Voice of Your Childhood, Whether You Know it Or Not
Disney voice actor has been in hundreds of movies and TV shows from your childhood!
This weekend I was watching the Disney movie The Hunchback of Notre Dame. My girlfriend and I thought a voice from the movie sounded vaguely familiar, and similar to a voice we may have heard in the movie Aladdin. A quick trip to IMDB led us to realize that not only was the voice of a guard in Hunchback in Aladdin, he was also, like, a hundred other characters from movies and TV shows we knew!
