Joey King portrays the role of Poppy in the most loved animated film Despicable Me 4. The actress shared her insights of recording voice-over for the film revealing that it is her favourite thing to do.

Joey said, “Recording voice-over for an animated movie is one of my favourite things to do because you have to give everything using just your voice. You end up making a bit of a fool of yourself to understand what the character is going through. You can’t be afraid to throw yourself around to make it resonate in your voice. The freedom to let loose and not worry about appearances is what I love most, especially when I get to play such a fun, over-the-top yet endearing character like Poppy. I can really go for it, do some wild stuff and there’s no wrong way to do it. Poppy’s voice differs from mine because I added a cute little lisp to her voice, which is one of my favourite things about the character. I love when kids try to be all serious and make a point with that innocent, childlike voice, and in Poppy’s case, with her lisp. And although it wasn’t really my intention, somehow her lips make her come off even scarier.”

Directed by Chris Renaud and Patrick Delage,the sequel is all set to release on 5th July. The franchise returns with its all-time favourites with Steve Carell as Gru, Kristen Wiig as Lucy, Miranda Cosgrove as Margo, Dana Gaier as Edith, Pierre Coffin as the voice of the Minions, and Joey King as Poppy.
