Matthew Broderick will play The Dream Warrior on Cartoon Network's popular animated series Adventure Time. This new character is a used car salesman summoned by series protagonists Finn and Jake in a shared, extraordinary dream to offer advice on defeating a substantial rival.
“I heard about Adventure Time because my son, James, loves it,” Broderick said, “I like that it doesn’t talk down to anybody."
Adventure Time’s current season also has other well-known guest voices including the likes of Donald Faison, George Takei, Erik Estrada, Andy Milonakis, Emo Phillips, Bobcat Goldthwait and Susie Essman.
Adventure Time introduces viewers to unlikely heroes Finn and Jake, buddies who traverse the mystical Land of Ooo and encounter its colorful inhabitants. The best of friends, our heroes always find themselves in the middle of heart-pounding escapades. Finn, a silly kid with an awesome hat and Jake, a brassy dog with a big kind heart, depend on each other through thick and thin. From the mind of first-time series creator Pendleton Ward and Cartoon Network Studios, Ooo is a land built for adventure.
Film-wise, Broderick was last seen in Brett Ratner's Tower Heist (shown above - image (c) Universal) comedy alongside Ben Stiller, Eddie Murphy, Casey Affleck, Alan Alda, Michael Peña, Téa Leoni and Gabourey Sidibe.
