I can’t wait to unleash him onto screens when the film premieres around the world later this year” It’s so nice to play a character that represents that. A lot of people have this image of Australia as being very care-free and I live like that. He’s a really cool character and he’s a great one for me to be able to play because, being Australian, I can relate to his attitude a little bit. He has a lot of bravado, but as soon as he sees an animal, he’s petrified. My character is a fun, energetic and cheeky little car called Ace, an Aussie who is a bit full of himself and he thinks he’s super cool, but when you peel away the layers he’s a real little softy and everyone loves him. It’s really nice to see that Thomas & Friends has embraced this – it is a great new direction for the show and I think it’s going to be fantastic. With Thomas leaving Sodor for the first time ever in this new movie and travelling around the world on his adventures, it is incredible for me to help introduce young viewers to the diverse range of cultures, different ways of life and animals that exist on our planet today. Peter Andre says: “It is a real honour to be voicing the character of Ace in new movie and such a buzz for me to be doing my first worldwide movie voiceover for something that I grew up on and loved as a child and that my kids now love too.
