Mick Lally
Tomm Moore, director of The Secret of Kells
Mick Lally was our first and only choice as the voice of Brother Aidan in The Secret of Kells . It was an honour to work with him. He brought a warmth and humour to the character’s voice that all the animators appreciated and enjoyed working with.
We only worked with him for a short time but we listened to his voice for almost three years after we did the recording. Even animators in Hungary, Belgium and Brazil got used to hearing him as they worked, everyone agreed he made their jobs easy by bringing so much character to the voice.
We met again last year around the publicity of the film and the Oscar nominations. The news is very sad and sudden.
