    Description

    Get your popcorn ready because this week we are joined by Wizards of Waverly Place casting director Ruth Lambert! Ruth gives us all the juicy goss on the casting process for not only Wizards but a TON of Disney movies she’s worked on like Lilo and Stitch, The Lion King, and The Emperor’s New Groove. We also get a little ~saucy~ and confront David on why he didn’t show up to his callback for Jerry Russo ? PLUS Ruth reveals which OG cast member was almost recast… 

    Why is Hellfire from The Hunchback of Notre Dame so creepy? The Emperor’s New Groove was supposed to be a musical?? And WHY was Ruth originally let go from casting wizards???
