Talking about voicing the titular character Ron the robot, Galifianakis (The Hangover) told Sky News: "They didn't want me to go too expressive because it just hasn't been programmed that way yet. So it was tricky - I mean, not too tricky, but it's one of those things that it took me a while to figure out.

"One of the producers, writers, directors would say, 'Hey, that's a little too human', which is, by the way, a direction I've never gotten!"
