The world knew Alex Trebek as the host of Jeopardy, the long-running game show. But, to Disney fans, he was Alex Trebek of Ellen’s Energy Adventure. On that ride, Trebek played, well, the host of Jeopardy. He gave Ellen a hard time about her lack of energy-related trivia knowledge. Like the ride, he’s no longer with us now, but he lives on in YouTu...
When you think about Guardians of the Galaxy, you can’t help but hum Hooked on a Feeling, the song used so memorably in it. BJ Thomas, the singer of that tune, passed away…but not before he left Disney fans with many memories. In fact, here’s one: Yes, Thomas used to play at the EPCOT International Flower & Garden Festival!
Australian martial artist Brad Allan worked with Jackie Chan on several productions. Eventually, Allan earned solo assignments as a stunt coordinator. One of his final projects was Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings. Attentive viewers will even notice a dedication to him at the end!
In 1960, a young artist desperate for work accepted a temp job at Disney. He quickly earned his stripes and became Disneyland’s first full-time artist. More than 50 years later, he died a Disney Legend. Two of his works, Walt Disney Triple Self Portrait and Self Portrait: Mickey Mouse, are iconic.
One of the most prolific and respected actors of all time, Plummer found himself in several Disney projects. Among the most memorable was his voice acting work as the villainous Charles Muntz in Up. Also, while the movie wasn’t a Disney project at the time, fans will remember him for his work in The Sound of Music. Disney owns that film now.
When The Great Movie Ride opened in 1989, Cicely Tyson was among the performers who etched their hands cement outside the Chinese Theatre. Disney fans will also remember her work in The Help, but let’s be honest. I’m mentioning her more because she’s Cicely freakin’ Tyson, one of the most influential and accomplished actresses ever.
Similarly, Cloris Leachman worked with Disney on several occasions, most notably in Herbie Goes Bananas. She also appears in The Muppet Movie and Sky High. More recently, she appeared on Girls Meets World and voiced Hool in Elena of Avalor. For decades, she was a go-to woman for comic relief and a master of her craft.
The Annie Award winner and beloved Disney artist worked on projects like The Rescuers, The Lion King, Who Framed Roger Rabbit, and The Emperor’s New Groove. If you like Yzma, you have Baer to thank for the character’s distinctive visual flair.
A titan in the illustration industry, Negron worked on Raiders of the Lost Ark, Blade Runner, and Ghostbusters. That’ll make anybody feel insignificant about their resume. During the early 1970s, Disney poached Negron from 20thCentury Fox. He worked on Escape to Witch Mountain and other movies. More importantly, he created the conceptual artwork fo...
Yes, 2021 proved brutal for the old guys in Up. The men who brought life to their voices passed away within a few months of one another. Realistically, you know Asner from the Mary Tyler Moore Show. Still, his Disney connections trace back to a delightful 1970s movie, Gus. It’s about a field goal-kicking mule. Yes, I’m serious.
