James Brolin has been delivering standout work in this industry for decades, yet Lightyear marks the very first time he’s had the opportunity to lend his voice to an animated character.

In a sense, Lightyear is to Toy Story’s Andy what a film like Star Wars is to us. Lightyear is the movie that would have made Andy want a Buzz Lightyear toy to begin with. So, if Lightyear functions as an in-world movie for Toy Story and the villain Zurg exists within the Toy Story films, that means Zurg has to have a role in Lightyear, right? He does, but I’m willing to bet it’s not quite what you expect.

With Lightyear now playing in theaters nationwide, I got the chance to chat with Brolin about voicing Zurg and had to ask him my biggest burning question; how did it take this long for him to finally get the chance to voice an animated character?

Find out what he said in this interview!
