Seth Green
If you’ve gone to the movies or watched television in the last twenty-five years, you already know Seth Green’s work. Green co-starred in Disney's holiday feature, “Old Dogs.” Green portrayed Craig, Robin Williams and John Travolta’s overeager junior executive just itching to make his mark in business, especially to his two mentors. He is the star of Disney’s 2011 release, “Mars Needs Moms,” which was shot in performance capture for Robert Zemeckis’ company. Improbably, Green plays a 9-year old boy in “Mars” with Joan Cusack as his mother. Green and Matthew Senreich created/executive produce and with their staff, write and direct the Emmy-winning “Robot Chicken,” their stop-motion animation sketch comedy show on Cartoon Network’s Adult Swim. Green provides multiple voices each week to the pop culture parody show. The “Robot Chicken: Star Wars Episode II” special earned Green an Outstanding Voiceover Emmy nomination and 2009 Annie Awards for writing and best animated TV show. Green won the 2008 Annie Award for directing the first “Robot Chicken: Star Wars” special and both specials were Emmy-nominated. Green, Senreich and Tom Root executive produce and Green voices the villain for “Titan Maximum,” their new Adult Swim show. The trio are creating /writing a new animated series for Fox. Green also voices Chris Griffin on “Family Guy,” the hit Fox animated series.
Between film roles, Green and Senreich debuted their series, “Sweet J Presents,” on Sony’s Screenblast. The duo created/executive produced twelve webisodes utilizing stop-motion photography and, you guessed it, action figures. They were ahead of their time as everyone was still on dial-up internet access back then. It eventually led to “Robot Chicken,” which began airing in February, 2005 to record ratings on Cartoon Network’s Adult Swim. It’s the highest rated show on Adult Swim and has also enjoyed great success internationally. Pretty amazing for something that began as an animated short so Green could avoid talking about himself on a talk show.
