Susan Egan (Hercules, Steven Universe, Beauty and the Beast)

This week on Toon’d In!, Jim Cummings welcomes the dazzling, dynamic, and downright divine Susan Egan—the voice (and face!) behind legendary roles like Megara in Hercules, Rose Quartz in Steven Universe, and the original Belle on Broadway in Beauty and the Beast!

From the bright lights of Broadway to the recording booth of your favorite animated classics, Susan shares her incredible journey through stage and screen. Hear how she brought sass, soul, and strength to her iconic roles, what it was really like working with Disney during the Renaissance era, and why Meg is still one of the coolest heroines ever animated. With stories, laughs, and a little behind-the-scenes Disney magic, it’s an episode you won’t want to miss.

🎭 Ever wonder how Susan crafted Meg’s unforgettable “I’m a damsel, I’m in distress, I can handle this” charm? Tune in and get Toon’d In!
