Skrillex Lands Cameo in Disney Film Wreck-It Ralph

As we wrote about back in July, Skrillex will be contributing his production skills to the Disney animated film Wreck-It Ralph. Now Mixmag is reporting that not only will he be contributing music to the film, but he will also be making a cameo.

Clark Spencer, the film's producer, spoke about how Skrillex went from EDM superstar to Disney cartoon. "We went to him first and said, 'Hey, we have this party scene in the world of Fix It Felix Jr, and we have a DJ and we think it would make a nice cameo if we put you into it.' And he was ecstatic," he said.

"We built his model, we put on his look, and we sent it to him to have him give us comments. And he said he would never wear non-black tennis shoes. He said 'My tennis shoes will always be black'. So we changed the tennis shoes to black.

"You don't see them in the film, as he's behind the DJ booth, but they were in the model. He has seen the animation, and he's very, very excited about it."
