Riku is a sexy guy. He's just a sexy guy, and the gamer girls are really going to like it. I think his voice is pretty sexy. It's got a deep, dark kind of sensibility to it. Every girl goes through a bad boy phase. Come on, you know you like it. I think the Kingdom Hearts franchise is really attractive because it brings, it literally brings together two proven franchises and it just makes it twice as powerful. You have the Disney franchise with all the characters, Mickey, Donald and Goofy...
Kairi is a princess in Kingdom Hearts II, and she's a very sweet girl. They yell at me and tell me that I have to make my voice more "princess."
"Princess; lighten the voice, Hayden, please raise it a few octaves."
The characters are so cute. Kairi is adorable the way she looks. I just want to look like her. I want her body. I think the thing that happens with sequels a lot of the time and the reason why they don't work is because they're constantly in the same plot and storyl...
The character I play, Roxas, in the new Kingdom Hearts II; he's a very quiet person. He's not as outgoing and open as some of his other friends as you'll see. But he slowly builds his confidence throughout the game. It's very challenging and I think that's one of the things that will be so appealing about the second one is that it's very suspenseful. There's a lot of, you know, what's going to happen next. Even sitting in the room playing one of the characters, "where's this script going?...
Naminé is Kairi's alter ego, and she helps Roxas throughout the game because she is trying to pair up Roxas with his alter ego. And so she comes in and out to kind of give an explanation to what he should be doing, where he should be going. He's kind of in question of who he really is and why he got there, and she almost acts as a spiritual guide to him and kind of showing him his way. You know, the animation is fantastic and there's all these different lands and sort of that cross b...
You know, Cloud's cool, and that's what he's known for. The character is a great character because he has a past, he has a heaviness about him which you don't really get to play often as an actor. I guess I'm the first guy who's playing Cloud here in America which is just a great honor anyway, so I hope I don't mess it up.
Tifa is a really cool character. She's both very strong physically and emotionally, but she's also very sensitive, and she's really a caretaker, which I really like. I like that a lot about her. She's really multidimensional. For people who are familiar with the Disney world, this is a great introduction to some of the Final Fantasy characters, and maybe some of the other Disney characters that they weren't that familiar with. And I think for some Final Fantasy fans, I think that they mig...
I love Aerith's style. To me it's very young and fresh and fun, and it's just very colorful. She looks very natural and beautiful, so I wanted to play her. It's great. Kingdom Hearts II is a really cool idea, having all of these different Disney worlds and all of these characters that have joined together. For me, it was a lot of fun because playing Aerith who's still very light and fun and energetic but there's like a seriousness to her. It was interesting because I'd be acting in a scen...
Yuna is, I think, first and foremost, very brave. And I think that's very apparent, I think, from all of the stories, but the thing about her is that in each story, she's been able to become more confident. I feel like she's definitely a character that someone put a lot of thought into, and the details are there with her character. And that's one thing, I think, that's really always appealed to people, is the detail that's gone into every aspect of her; into her clothes, into her look, in...
I love that she is brave, and that she's a bit inadequate and a bit insecure, and that she's able to overcome her insecurities and really just be someone that she can be proud of. Well, she gets to hang out with Goofy, and she gets to hang out with Donald Duck, so that's really different. It's really wonderful to be able to mesh all the Disney characters together, and they travel through time; they travel through everything together. It's just one big happy fantasy family. Now that I have...
