00:00We have Anthony Gonzalez, the voice of Coco, Miguel from Coco, one of my favorite Disney Pixar films.
00:06It got me sobbing like a baby. Can you believe that film came out seven years ago, which is like
00:11hard to believe. The anniversary just came up, right? Yeah, exactly, November 22nd, seven years.
00:16So seven years, the film obviously means so much to everyone because we're still talking about it,
00:21we're still, you know, feeling the emotions from the movie and the immersive experience here on
00:26the Disney Treasure Plaza de Coco. How cool is it to see it come to life here on the Disney
00:30Treasure? It's such an incredible feeling to be able to see Plaza de Coco here in person because,
00:35you know, we only envisioned this world when I was doing the recordings in my head. There was no,
00:40you know, drawings or anything and now to be able to see it in person, not just, you know,
00:46on a TV screen is so special, especially the beautiful ofrenda that they have. That's my
00:50favorite part, yes. Yeah, it's so, so beautiful and, you know, just to be able to touch it and
00:55see all these pictures in real life is such a special feeling. Yeah, all the details, right?
00:59Yes. Coming to life. And how about like being a part of this film, right? Like how special and
01:06what did it do for you and for your career? I mean, you look back seven years now removed
01:10and you reflect, right? Like just what does that mean to you? Yeah, well, it's so incredible to
01:15realize that Coco has been more than half of my life. I'm so grateful that it has been just
01:21because it's changed my life in an incredible way and I'm so grateful to have met the director of
01:26Coco and I'm so honored to have been able to be the voice of Miguel at Coco just because
01:31it was such an incredible film that really shined light on the wonderful Mexican celebration and
01:36tradition that is. Yeah, that's wonderful. And it's such a special feeling to have been able to
01:42have impacted so many people's lives through this film. Yeah, just all about life and family.
01:49Like it's just such a sweet film. Like I said, like I was just misty the whole time. Like it's
01:53just such a beautiful movie. Me too. And just so good to talk to you and very cool to be sharing
01:58this adventure with you on the Disney Treasure. This is very, very cool. Thank you for your time.
02:03I appreciate it. Thank you. You had to come hang out with us, right? Of course. You do not want
02:06to miss the Disney Treasure. We're giving away a free vacation. That's pretty sweet, right?
