I was just wondering if anyone knew what Broadway Stars were in which Disney movies. I know of:
Judy Kuhn [Pocahantas]
Lea Salonga [Aladdin and Mulan]
Brian Stokes Mitchell [Prince of Egypt, not a disney movie, but still an animated cartoon]
Pumba [this guy I saw in Man of la Mancha was his voice]
Anyone know of any other? Thanks

That's Ernie Sabella you saw in Man of La Mancha.
Nathan Lane was Timon and Matthew Broderick was Simba in The Lion King. Jodi Benson was Ariel and Samuel E. Wright (now Mufasa in Lion King) was Sebastian in The Little Mermaid. Jerry Orbach was Lumiere and Angela Lansbury was Mrs. Potts in Beauty and the Beast. The lists go on and on...

Paul Kandel (Tommy, JCS revival), Jason Alexander, and Kevin Kline are in The Hunchback of Notre Dame.
The fabulous Lillias White is a muse in Hercules. Roger Bart is Young Hercules' singing voice.
etc etc... there are so many theatre actors in the choruses of Disney movies.

I was just going to say Liz Callaway in Anastasia... sigh. I love her.
I feel like she was also in Cinderella 2 or something like that?
Jodi Benson and Lea Salonga were wonderful in their respective Disney movies as well...

Love Harvey in "Mulan" - He's Yao, the sawed-off, short-tempered one of her Three Wacky Army Buddies. "I'll get that arrow, pretty boy. And I'll do it with my shirt ON." 
Paul Kandel's Clopin in Disney's HoND gets the blame for dragging me into my online posting/participation netlife.

Posted: 1/23/05 at 3:17pmMatthew Broderick was Simba? Did he just do the singing voice or something, because I was sure that Jonathon Taylor Thomas did his voice.
HROK?

Posted: 1/23/05 at 3:19pmJonathan Taylor Thomas did YOUNG Simba. Matthew did his voice when he was an adult.

Matthew just did the speaking voice of Adult Simba.
I forgot who did the singing voice.

The big brother from 'Smart Guy' did the singing voice for Young Simba, Jason Weaver.
Now what's really sad is I'm going to have to go back and watch these various Disney movies to hear the people... lol
