I am doing a gig today for the movie "The Giver" and had a chance to talk to Jeff for a minute. I asked him if he would be doing any voice over work for TBL pinball. Jeff, as usual, prefaced with a chuckle and said I don't think so. "Is there a Big Lebowski pinball?" I said yes and showed him the picture on the TBL webpage and he chuckled again.

He may have been playing coy or more likely genuinely not aware. After all it's only pinball. I was hoping however to get some insight or a scoop if possible. No luck but maybe next time. I've worked with Jeff a few times and he's always the Dude.

Quoted from MustangPaul:

That's cool, you may have started something. Stars are usually pretty interested in what their likenesses are used for.

Yeah. I was surprised he wasn't aware. Jeff is very much into TBL and even has props from the movie at his place in Montecito.

Quoted from nasco62:

Cool story would have said pic or didn't happen but you had that covered..

I figured that would happen which is why I included that crappy pic.

Quoted from RobT:

Then again, there are plenty here who could vouch for Kevin and the work he does, making the story not at all surprising.
Thanks for posting Kevin. Would have been even cooler if he told you "hell yes, I'm looking forward to recording the custom voice work for that pin"!

That's the response I was hoping for. Maybe the conversation will spark some interest? Here's to a long-shot.
