I’m working on a presentation about Moulin Rouge for a class and i found this picture and im sobbing
like what is the context. what is jacek playing that has ewan and nicole so amazed. I’m looking at the costumes and trying to guess what scene they were filming and if this is during like a break during Roxanne bc of jacek and ewan’s fits thats somehow funnier. “funky recorder”.
#And why is jacek so FOCUSED#also matthew looks so uninterested in this which makes it funnier#in my mind this is typical christian satie and argentinian behavior#Does he have a name in the movie?#I know he has one in the musical but those are two very different men so santiago does not apply here#does moulin rouge (2001) have a fandom#If so can we please give the Argentinian a name#I vote Dante bc how cool is that#moulin rouge#moulin rouge 2001#el tango de roxanne#ewan mcgregor#nicole kidman#jacek koman#matthew whittet#baz luhrmann

Sea Princesses English Voice Actors - Where are they now?
(pictured: Voice actors following the recording of the first episode of Sea Princesses, Lost. Back (left to right): Olivia Pigeot, Mary-Ann Henshaw, Isabella Dunwill. Front (left to right): Alex Cook, Di Adams, Paige Walker, Jacqui Lofgren, Katherine Cohn.)
You can manipulate the world and use AI that's as close to real life all you want, you'll never get all the original actors and voice actors of your favourite shows back to reprise their roles on something as large of a scale as Kisekae Insights.
The voice actors who worked on Sea Princesses are rather unknown outside of Australia and some of them have moved on to different roles, both in and out of the industry. Sure, I can say that everyone came back to reprise their characters in my personal project, but where are they now in real life? Let's take a look at where the voice actors of Sea Princesses are now, nearly 20 years after the first book was released in Brazil.
For brevity, I won't be covering any credited voice actors who are still predominately acting in Australia. Bolded roles are confirmed while italicised roles are speculated through observation and/or deduction.
Isabella Dunwill – Polvina
Known for her role as Geri Hallett in the soap opera Neighbours, Isabella Dunwill would voice Amy in the 2011 3D revival of Bananas in Pyjamas. In 2016, she would become the manager of the Melbourne campus of her alma mater, the National Institute of Dramatic Art (NIDA). Most recently in 2020, she participated in Miss Chess' Christmas song, Happy Jolly Very Extra Merry Christmas, released following the second lockdown in Melbourne.
Katherine Beck – Ester
Credited as Katherine Cohn and not to be mistaken for Australian actress Kathryn Beck (a mistake I made way too many times in the early days of my personal project), Ester was Katherine Beck's first voice role in Australia. She would continue to be featured as a voice actress in other Australian cartoons and advertisements over the coming years. Katherine Beck currently works as an American accent voice coach and also hosts two podcasts, namely The All American Actor's Podcast and The Voice of Your Brand.
Paige Walker – Tubarina
Like Katherine Beck, Paige Walker currently works as an American accent voice coach, though she has performed as an aerialist in various circuses. Tubarina was Paige Walker's only voice role. She has recently appeared as a guest on the Two Unemployed Actors podcast with host Max Belmonte.
Matthew Whittet – Hugo
Although Matthew Whittet continues to be featured as an actor in Australian productions, he has worked extensively in theare and has also written some productions of his own as well, including Girl Asleep and two episodes of the 2022 Netflix reboot of the Australian soap opera Heartbreak High. He also voiced Charlie the Monkey in the 2011 3D revival of Bananas in Pyjamas.
Shannon Murphy – Tata
As cited in her interview with Matthew Eles of Cinema Australia, Tata was Shannon Murphy's only voice role that she took up while studying to be a director at NIDA; a friend asked her if she wanted to be on Sea Princesses since she still had a bit of an American accent after coming back from the US. Shannon Murphy predominately works as a director on various Australian productions.
(there was also the yogurt incident of 2020 with her then-husband, Dan Wyllie who voiced Marcello, which he was found not guilty of and Murphy was found to not be "an impressive witness". Aussie Amber Heard much?)
Jacqui Lofgren – Leia, Delfi, Lia
Jacqui Lofgren has had no other acting or voice roles before or after Sea Princesses. Having practiced in physie (an Australian dance style combining ballet, aerobics, gymnastics, contemporary and modern jazz) since the age of 4, Jacqui Lofgren currently teaches at North Sydney Physie & Dance. In 2015, she graduated with a Bachelor of Arts and Bachelor of Education (Primary) from Macquarie University.
Meaghan Davies – Elektra, Angelica (S1)
While she may not necessarily be a "star talent" as Liamasterink described her, Meaghan Davies has been in productions between Australia and the US. She has voiced Megan in Tracey McBean, Tomasina in Bananas in Pyjamas and most recently, Annabelle in the Nickelodeon/Netflix series Sharkdog alongside Dee Bradley Baker and Kari Wahlgren.
Hannah Schofield – Juli, Jessi (S1)
Aside her previous role in an episode of the 2002 series Don't Blame the Koalas, Sea Princesses is Hannah Schofield's only other credit. Unfortunately it has proven impossible to locate her on other platforms, thus a screenshot of Juli and Jessi is used here.
Alex Cook – Matilda, Vivi
Famous for her breakout role as a child actress in the pay TV drama Love My Way as Lou Jackson, Alex Cook has also appeared in other Australian productions. She was also a producer in a number of shorts before becoming a theatre agent for Mollison Keightley Management.
Keith Buckley – Shark King, Octopus King
Also known as Keith Alexander, Keith Buckley previously voiced John Tracy in addition to narrating the 1968 film Thunderbird 6. During the 60's and 70's, he has also had roles in UK dramas such as Joe 90, The Secret Service and UFO. After moving back to Australia, he has featured in local productions (including Bernard the Dog in the 2011 3D revival of Bananas in Pyjamas) and does various narrations and voiceovers for documentaries and advertisements. Recently, he was also a guest on The Gerry Anderson Podcast.
He is not to be mistaken for the English actor Keith Buckley, who died in December 2020.
Mary-Ann Henshaw – Octopus Queen, “Jaune” (Lost), Marli, Camarina, Elektra (S2)
(screencap taken from The Summer of 77, 2001)
Mary-Ann Henshaw's only other role in Australian children's television was Amy in the original Bananas in Pyjamas from 1992 to 2001. After Sea Princesses, Mary-Ann Henshaw was never featured in other productions nor was she locatable on other platforms, so any recent news on her is unknown.
Olivia Pigeot – Miss Marla
While Olivia Pigeot continues to feature in Australian productions, she has also been a yoga teacher and in 2019, founded Bondi Kids Drama, offering classes and workshops for primary school children in drama and short film.
Robina Beard – Starfish Grandmother
From the 60s to the 80s, Robina Beard was best known as Madge the Manicurist in Palmolive ads for Australia and New Zealand. She has appeared in various stage and TV roles and in 2018, published a book titled My Life – Your Soaking In It. In January 2011, she was awarded the Medal of the Order of Australia for her service to the arts before receiving a Lifetime Achievement Award at the Australian Dance Awards in July that same year.
John Leary – Caton
In addition to his roles in television, film and theatre, John Leary hosts The Saturday Quiz podcast where he asks guests questions from the quiz in The Saturday Paper.
Jamie Croft – Caramelo, Mr Bernardo (S2)
As a child actor, Jamie Croft played Billy Moss in the Australian soap opera A Country Practice and Fred Kelman in the 1995 Mighty Morphin' Power Rangers movie. Later on, Jamie Croft transitioned from acting to being a music producer and event manager, eventually becoming the manager to singer-songwriter Harrison Storm (according to his LinkedIn profile).
So from the credited cast of Sea Princesses, who would be most likely to reprise their role if there were to be a revival or reboot? Well, I think it would be easier to ask who would be unlikely to reprise their role, and that list would include Shannon Murphy, Jacqui Lofgren, Hannah Schofield, Mary-Ann Henshaw and Jamie Croft. But hey, in my personal project, who cares about availability? As long as they aren't dead, I can say that they "reprised" their roles all I want. Well, except for a few times in the past, but that's the exception rather than the rule.

Title: Girl Asleep
Director: Rosemary Myers
Year: 2015
Length: 1h 17m
Rating: NR
Genres: Comedy, Family, Fantasy
Yay, Nay, or Meh: Yeh?
This movie reminded me in a lot of ways of Napoleon Dynamite, only with less stupidity and more actual plot - and, of course, the fantasy bits that come in eventually. I don't think that any of the characters had any specific personalities outside of their archetypes, but somehow that didn't both me much, likely because the events are more important than the in-depth complexities of the characters' psyches. I believe this is what is normally classified in literature as "magical realism", but I felt it integrated the two pretty successfully, and as far as coming-of-age stories go, it wasn't too bad. I think the only thing that felt a little off was that the fantasy parts often felt like a play that someone had filmed, whereas the normal shots were, well, normal, but that made them feel a bit more jarring so that may have been intentional.

Girl Asleep (Rosemary Myers, 2015)
“Plays like the love child of Jane Campion and Guy Maddin, an otherworldly quinceañera that celebrates female rites of passage and the hallucinatory power of film.”
