Remembering the X-Men Animated Series

This was already done in 2009 but I just came across it. It is one of Chris` colleagues Lenore Zann remembering the voice work for X-Men:

"One of the key traits to her character is the flirtatiousness of Rogue with Gambit. Lenore talks fondly of this relationship, and her friendship with Chris Potter, who voiced Gambit for almost all of the character’s appearances. “We were all together for the whole series, we were in the room together. So it was like a radio play and of course, in the scripts there is a definite attraction between Gambit and Rogue In fact, I think Gambit is madly in love with Rogue.  One episode he tries to kiss her and it almost kills him. There’s that time when Mr. Sinister captures them and puts them on an island, and takes away their powers. For the first time, they have a night together, I think they were chained to the wall or something, and it leaves it like dot dot dot, you know, so that they can actually touch each other and he won’t die. It doesn`t leave it to the imagination what they did that night."

In the room, we were all totally into our characters and just having fun,” remembers Lenore. “The hardest role for them to cast was Storm. In the first few weeks of our first season they must’ve went through five different actresses. They kept getting fired, and we were all nervous. With Chris (Potter), it was getting that accent. At first they wanted a strong accent, and when he did it, he did it well, but they said it was too much, bring it down, bring it down. It became very, very subtle."

"All of us became extremely close. We remain friends to this day, even though we’re all over the place,” says Lenore of her cast mates."
