See the woman at the bottom? I believe that's his character. I wonder if he could have found his way into a Pixar movie or something...

actors need to stop doing animated films, it seems to be a death sentance to be their last role.


Brando, Orson Wells, Phil Hartman....
 
I don't know if money was an issue...

Here's an excerpt from the story I discovered this through:

(Director Bob) Bendetson, formerly of The Simpsons, said he originally approached Brando for the role of a money-grubbing 600-pound man who runs the candy factory on the cheap.
It turned out to be an offer The Godfather star could refuse.
Brando, who also starred in A Streetcar Named Desire and On the Waterfront, thought it would be fun to voice the old lady instead — and she was only in three scenes. He needed just one day to record the voice for the short, slack-breasted, blond character, who has a cascade of wrinkles for a mouth.
“I was told by his agent and manager that it was always a dream of his to play a woman in an animated movie. For some reason, that was his dream,” Bendetson said.
