Parsons talks about how Dimitri is a little different than other characters he voices.
“Well, he’s a villain. I’ve done quite a few villains in my career, but…he tries to be menacing, but really he’s more bumbling. So he’s, he’s more comedic villain. You know, he shows some vulnerability. You know, he’s unsure of himself, rightfully so.”
