Luke Wilson spoke about the different voice he did for the A.I. character “Bat Dad” in Prime Video‘s holiday special Merry Little Batman.
In an interview with ComingSoon, the actor was asked if he changed up his voice for Bat Dad compared to when he performed lines for Batman himself. Wilson revealed there was some form of effect put onto his voice, but that he also altered his performance a bit.
“As I remember, I tried to alter my voice,” Wilson stated. “When I did my normal voice for Bruce Wayne, I was trying to have it be like a dad’s voice trying keep his child entertained and have a sense of fun. So when we did the computer voice, I tried to change my voice a little. And I believe they put some little effect on it.”
