Giancarlo Esposito (The Mandalorian, Breaking Bad) guest stars as the classic Disney villain, Phantom Blot, in a new episode of Disney's DuckTales. CBR has an exclusive look at a featurette of Esposito discussing the role of Phantom Blot, and what it's like to voice an animated villain.
"I play the character of Phantom Blot, who is very much a mystery," Esposito said in the featurette. "He's set up to be a foul -- no pun intended [laughs] -- a foul man who hates magic. And he wants to take all of the magic out of the world."
The featurette and episode description of "The Phantom and the Sorceress!" which airs Sept. 21, can be found below.
