Meet the Voice Behind 'Zootopia's' Sloth Character Flash

Zootopia Flash actor Raymond Persi

Raymond S. Persi voices the character of Flash in Disney's ZOOTOPIA, the fastest sloth in the DMV (Department of Mammal Vehicles), but he's no ordinary voice actor. Persi is actually a story artist for Walt Disney Animation Studios and an Emmy Award-winning director (for the 2006 "Simpsons" Episode: "The Seemingly Neverending Story"), and fell into the role by accident. CineMovie sat down with Persi to talk about voicing the slow-speaking character, and how he was recruited for the role. 

Raymond S. Persi has worked as the story artist on Disney's WRECK-IT RALPH, FROZEN and the Oscar-winning animated short, FEAST for which his two dogs served as his models. His talents extend to the recording booth having played roles in WRECK-IT RALPH as Gene, the martini-swilling Nicelander.

ZOOTOPIA is now on Digitial Download, Blu-ray and DVD.
