Jordan Nagai (born February 5, 2000) is an American student and former child voice actor. He is best known for his voice role as Russell in Up.[1]

Career

Jordan's older brother Hunter originally auditioned for Russell in Up.[2] Director Pete Docter has said, "As soon as Jordan's voice came on we started smiling because he is appealing and innocent and cute and different from what I was initially thinking."[2] About four hundred children had shown up for the auditions, but Nagai stood out because he wouldn't stop talking the whole time.[1] Nevertheless, he was sometimes very shy, and Docter found it difficult getting him to recite all of his lines.[2] Nagai's character in Up is the first Asian American figure in a movie by Pixar.[1]

He also lent his voice to an episode of The Simpsons called "O Brother, Where Bart Thou?" as the voice of Charlie, an orphan who befriends Bart in his quest for a baby brother. The program aired on December 13, 2009.[3] Nagai has not acted in anything since; instead, opting to pursue a career in biology and healthcare management.[4]
