KPop Demon Hunters star Arden Cho received a phone call from none other than the Princess Jasmine herself, who had some pretty lovely words for the new voice actor.<\/p>\n
“A couple months after the movie came out, Linda Larkin, the voice of Princess Jasmine, called me and we had a two-hour phone conversation,” Cho told Jimmy Fallon on The Tonight Show<\/a>. “I put it on speaker, because, for the first hour, I was like, ‘Is this really happening? Am I talking with Jasmine?'”<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Larkin began her voice acting career in 1992 as the speaking voice of Princess Jasmine in Disney<\/a>‘s animated Aladdin movie \u2013 which became the first animated movie to reach the half-a-billion mark. Larkin would continue to voice Jasmine in the direct-to-video sequels The Return of Jafar and Aladdin and the King of Thieves.<\/p>\n You may like<\/p>\n “Well, she wanted to congratulate me, and she actually told me [that], as a voice actor, she was really impressed with my work with Rumi, and she loved the depth and the layers and all of it.
