Funny man Will Arnett is in a bit of a career slump right now, but the star of Netflix’s series Flaked and the voice of Gotham City’s LEGO version of the Dark Knight has his sights set for an even bigger voice acting role.
On Conan, Arnett straight up said that he wants to join the Star Wars franchise. Will he be wielding a lightsaber? Probably not, because Arnett wants to join in the footsteps of Bill Hader and Ben Schwartz and be the voice of a droid. Arnett gave a few off-the-cuff auditions for a new Star Wars droid who doesn’t speak in beeps and boops, but rather a cross between Joe Pesci in My Cousin Vinny and your uncle who isn’t actually from New York doing his best impression of Joe Pesci in My Cousin Vinny.
Arnett also gave another example of a very serious sounding droid that was very similar to the famous voiceover actor, Don LaFontaine and his LEGO Batman character. Is J.J. Abrams ready to include a droid who sounds like he knows a thing or two about where you can get the best pizza on Tatooine? Maybe not, but if he is, Will Arnett is definitely the guy to do it.
