I thought about a little bit, and I've decided to keep all my questions focused on the third film. I did a little bit of research though, and I was able to find another interview with Brian where he talked about working with Welker.

Nrama: What was it like working with Frank Welker?

Levant: I was in New Mexico shooting my next movie with Jackie Chan while Frank did his recordings. I have worked with Frank in two movies before this and I’ve still never met him. He’s always working from somewhere else.

What’s funny, from what I understand is he hadn’t done Scooby in a while. The voice director had to remind him how to do some of his lines.

The other thing is some people wanted to save money, and they wanted to hire someone else to “rooby” it up. But I insisted that we had to have the original. It’s because he’s just great. He really is an amazing talent, really.
