Violet Parr
Vowell stars in a documentary about her work in the film, "Vowellet: An Essay by Sarah Vowell", which is included as a bonus feature on "The Incredibles"' 2004 DVD release. In the "video essay", Vowell discusses the various differences between voicing a superhero and becoming an action figure while she was writing about presidential assassinations, contrasting the two distinct careers. The animators also animated Violet to some of Vowell's dialogue from the documentary. Bird, who voices costume designer Edna Mode, was the only other actor Vowell recorded with while working on both films. The director would sometimes temporarily provide the voices of other characters for Vowell to act opposite of, such as Elastigirl in lieu of actress Holly Hunter. For "Incredibles 2", Vowell had not been allowed to read to entire script while recording her dialogue, having only been allowed to preview small excerpts in which Violet is speaking or having conversations with other characters. Until watching the film for the first time, Vowell had been under the impression that "Incredibles 2" would mostly be about Violet's anger at her father until experiencing the film's other storylines and characters. Despite 14 years separating the releases of the first and second films, Vowell did not find resuming the role to be difficult, identifying Violet as a character to whom she feels "closely tied", having played her for approximately one-third of her life. Syfy Wire's Heather Mason observed that Vowell shares her dry sense of humor with Violet. To-date, the "Incredibles" films remain Vowell's only animated film roles.
Vincent Price
Price's voiceover is heard on Alice Cooper's first solo album "Welcome to My Nightmare" from 1975, and he appeared in the corresponding TV special "". He starred for a year in the early 1970s in the syndicated daily radio program "Tales of the Unexplained". He made guest appearances in a 1970 episode of "Here's Lucy", showcasing his art expertise, and in a 1972 episode of ABC's "The Brady Bunch", in which he played a deranged archaeologist. In October 1976, he appeared as the featured guest in an episode of "The Muppet Show".
In 1976, Price recorded a cover of Bobby "Boris" Pickett's "Monster Mash" as a 45rpm single, putting his voice to a backing track laid down in London by record producers Bob Newby and Ken Weston. It was released on both sides of the Atlantic later that year without much success. In 1977, he began performing as Oscar Wilde in the one-man stage play "Diversions and Delights", written by John Gay and directed by Joe Hardy and set in a Parisian theatre on a night about one year before Wilde's death. The original tour of the play was a success in every city except for New York City. In the summer of 1979, Price performed the role of Wilde at the Tabor Opera House in Leadville, Colorado, on the same stage from which Wilde had spoken to miners about art some 96 years before. He eventually performed the play worldwide. Victoria Price stated in her biography of her father that several members of Price's family and friends thought that this was his best acting performance.
