When they came out with their movie, Penn and Teller Get Killed, I remember being really disappointed when Teller talked. It’s a bit silly to think about now, being disappointed that he did something he obviously did when he wasn’t on-stage or on-camera anyway.
Shortly before that, both Penn and Teller had small voice-over roles in the English dub of the French animated film Gandahar (rechristened Light Years in the U.S. for some reason) and Teller was just credited as Teller. The filmmaker, Rene Laloux, also made Fantastic Planet, aka La Planete Sauvage. I highly recommend both if you haven’t seen either.
I imagine Penn must do the shouting for both of them.

I love deep nerd dives like this. Thanks, Flying Squid.
