I was browsing through the cast information on IMDB and it appears Alan Tudyk is playing "Sonny" in the anticipated movie "I, Robot" starring Will Smith.
I watched the trailer but I didn't see him in it, although the robot's voice sounded familiar... So I'm wondering if my ears are playing tricks on me, or is Alan merely doing voice acting in the movie? I sincerely hope he has a physical role, since he's so gosh darn funny when he makes faces... which is practically all the time... Which is not saying he has a funny face
Although I remember he can also make us feel for him too, like in Out of Gas. He gets the message accross pretty clear.
Anyways, anyone know anything about the book and might be able to explain who "Sonny" is?

He is the robot
It's his body that the robots movements are baised on (alan is the guy in the funny suit) but we can't see his face
too bad, but hey, this still opens doors for us to see him in other things.
Somebody told me he was in a Knights Tale. Can anyone verify this?

Zoe: Can I have your share?
Mal: No.

Kinda... He is that robot. He is wearing a costume and they CGI over that. At least from what I read it look like that.
And I'm so heart broken that he is in a movie that is ripping the heart and soul (Eyes, Brain and all other organs) out of Asimov's books.

Couldn't they have just put him in a C-3PO type outfit and applied silvery make-up? :(
oh well, good for Alan.
And yeah, I have to agree, the movie does look like a FOX project *cough**cough*

They wouldn't have been able to use a suit due to the design of the robot.

Alan Tudyk played Wat in A Knight's Tale. See also 28 Days with Sandra Bullock where he played a really hilarious coke addict.
For other summer fun that frankly made my heart go kinda pity-pat check out:
