Toon'd In! with Jim Cummings7 Sep 2025

Andreas Deja (Legendary Disney Animator)

This week on Toon’d In!, Jim Cummings welcomes the legendary and masterfully expressive Andreas Deja! Renowned as one of Disney’s most iconic animators, Andreas brings a treasure trove of stories, insights, and artistic passion to a conversation that’s equal parts inspiring and nostalgic.

From bringing to life some of animation’s most unforgettable villains—like the menacing Scar in The Lion King and the flamboyant Jafar in Aladdin—to shaping beloved heroes like Hercules, Andreas takes us deep into the heart of hand-drawn animation. He and Jim dive into the craft of character performance through pencil and paper, the delicate balance between artistry and storytelling, and the evolution of animation from golden age traditions to modern-day innovations.

🎙️ Curious how a pencil became the ultimate acting tool for some of cinema’s greatest characters? Tune in and get Toon’d In!
