How Clancy Brown was convinced that they had mistakenly casted him for his role in The Shawshank Redemption… even on his flight to go shoot
- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -
Clancy Brown (Shawshank, SpongeBob) joins me this week to share his personal experience with impostor syndrome throughout his career from its inception to highlights like The Shawshank Redemption. Clancy talks about how the industry had changed over the decades and how he feels blessed to have found voice acting for the presence it allows him to keep. We also get into some good ole Lex talk, how fame can drastically change a set, and even his personal experience working with the late great Sean Connery.

Bill is one of my favorites. For a while, he had his own website, that he would frequently post on, and chat with the rest of us (board has been gone for years now). He talked about something he did as a kid, that was funny, and I told him something I once did, and he was laughing. He also talked about filming The Pacific, and something funny that happened. With the filming, he was marching some soldiers across the field, wasn't paying attention of what was ahead of him, and smacked his lower body into a stump. Bill was really a cool guy to talk to. I have a friend who with other Bill fans, would have a gathering at a hotel with Bill and they would just have fun and talk. Sadly I never got to participate (was broke).

cut the BS. If his story about the audition is true, by your metric, he was not underrated, but overrated. Regardless of his acting performance in the movie. Remember, most actors have no ambition to become a block buster lead character. Brown seems to be just fine with the roles he gets. He also enjoys having a lot less paparazzi buzzing around him.

The Shawshank Redemption is largely based on Stephen King's short story (Rita Hayworth and Shawshank Redemption). Clancy's previous film appearance was in King's "Pet Cemetery II" where his performance as a sheriff was critically acclaimed by the horror film "academy" (nominated for best supporting actor). So, it's pretty clear -- if he really did have a bad audition -- that the film's writers, producer, and director clearly wanted him and the audition was merely a formality.

Clancy Brown is one of the greatest actors ever. He deserves far more credit than he has ever been given. It's a crime that he hasn't been given the credit he so deserves.

You know why they hired him with that bad audition? Because of what he did in Highlander or Pet Cemetery. He’s great!

Man, I love this guy so much. Of course, it started with the Kurgan, but I remember being a kid and being soooo impressed by him in "Shoot to Kill", where he showed played such a different character. Then I saw him later in Earth II (where I had a bot of trouble completely trusting that he really was a good guy, thanks to previous experiences), Shawshank and Starship Troopers, and again much later, in "Carnivale" - all great parts. His sonorous voice is impossible to disguise, so even behind all the make-up of Burg, he could be picked out. Seems like such a likeable fellow (unlike so many of his characters). Looking forward to seeing him in what I hope is a prominent role in the new Dexter.

My dad worked (as a guard) at the Ohio State Prison where they filmed it. It was pretty close to the time that the movie was set in. He told me about the towers and he had a Thompson machinegun etc. His only career advice he gave me was "Don't ever be a prison guard".

Probably one of the finest pictures ever projected onto the cinema screen by light and lens. That Opera record scene where Andy blares the vocals of those angelic voices and Red says "I have no idea to this day what those two Italians ladies were singing about, truth is I don't want to know..." as the entire prison stops to listen... what a moment in film composition.

I have been a fan of Clancy Brown for something approaching 4 decades... & I never imagined he had anything resembling esteem issues! Somehow, this makes him even more cool!
