The cast were amazing, kind, and supportive. I felt privileged to be in the presence of Richard Curtis. All the time spent in the sound booth is now relatable, matching it to the animation. I can’t wait for it to be on Netflix.

We’re incredibly proud to see Jack feature in this film. the Netflix team loved Jack’s authentic northern accent which made him a perfect fit to play Jodie Whittaker’s son Danny. It’s such an amazing opportunity for him to show off his voicework, especially alongside such well-known, regarded actors.
