Matt Lanter

Matt: One of the greatest things about Star Wars is its fan base. To be a part of this whole community that likes to talk about it and have ideas of their own is just fun.

Matt: (His favorite part about voicing Anakin on "Star Wars: The Clone Wars") One of my favorite parts of recording Anakin is his witty, sarcastic banter that he has with both Ahsoka Tano and Obi-Wan Kenobi. I really enjoy those witty quips going back and forth between both of them. And it's fun to bounce off of James Arnold Taylor (Obi-Wan) and Ashley Eckstein (Ahsoka).

Matt: (On the difference between voice acting and on-screen acting) Voice acting still has the core of acting to it. You are still becoming a character, even if you're not on camera. You have to understand the motivation for saying certain lines and where the character is coming from at that point emotionally. At the same time, it is kind of like apples and oranges. When you do voice-over work, you don't have the pressure about landing on your mark or having your hair fixed or worry about how your body looks at a certain angle. However, sometimes what's nice with on-camera acting is that you have your body to work with. Your body language and facial expressions can help express a character's emotional state. And you don't have that in voice-over acting, so these things have to come through in your voice.

Matt: My friends in the neighborhood and I always loved to build tree forts. We always had at least one that we were working on.

Matt: I had a normal and fun childhood.

Matt: I have the confidence and willpower to succeed, and succeed I will if given a chance.
