Hey, Justin Long, star of He’s Just Not That Into You and Drag Me to Hell, tell us about your new animated sci-fi comedy, Planet 51! ”It’s basically about a planet of aliens. They would be aliens to us, obviously not to themselves. Dwayne Johnson — is it Dwayne the Rock? Mr. Rock? — he voices the human from Earth who lands on the planet. I voice an alien — but, again, I hate using that word because I’m in no way alien to myself. They’re just a race of people on this planet, Planet 51, and a lot of the comedy comes from how alien they consider this human, who is obviously out of his element. It’s a fish-out-of-water tale — a human-out-of-Earth tale!” Thanks, Justin! We couldn’t have said it better ourselves.
