This was an especially tough one. Just around 7 years ago this week, we were looking for someone to play little Bill Murphy. Our casting director sent us a tape of a young singer/actress reading one of Charlie Brown's speeches from "A Charlie Brown Christmas"…. https://t.co/HjQRKmKuiq
Producer Peter Billingsley and I listened to the tape together and we instantly knew we had found the voice of Bill Murphy. That was @haleyreinhart. We met her the next day and cast her in the part.
These past years it's been my privilege to see Haley become an accomplished and funny voice actor, and follow her success as a singer. We were all wiping away tears as she finished her final FIFF session this afternoon. Thank you, Haley — you were the heart and soul of our show.

“Fun fact: The incomparable Robert Rodriguez contacted me to be in his amazing film and gave me the opportunity to think of a song that I could sing a few a cappella lines to… I was driving, immediately pulled over on the side of the road, and sang a ballad version of Bowieโs iconic, “Heroes” into my voice memos… Robert went ahead and built an entire scene around it!!!
