In a LIONSGATE interview, Liev Schreiber commented that he approached portraying the Storm King like an actor would a live action character: "With any kind of creativity, you have to push the envelope. You have to explore, you have to improvise. I think we all love, as audiences, to see performers on a tightrope, to see people creating and being in the moment, coming up with something that we didn't think they could do. I think especially with this kind of work, animated films, you're sort of flying blind. So, you have to have that thing that I think is the key to all great acting, which is, you can't be afraid."

I learned this after discovering a LIONSGATE Information website, and I found that to be really interesting. So interesting, that I even added it to the “My Little Pony: The Movie” trivia section on IMDb.
