Phil Lord and Chris Miller put out a statement on their thoughts about the cast.

“Watching such inspired people from all over the world, with such unique voices, come together for the sole purpose of making art, is nothing short of miraculous,” they say. “We can’t think of anything funny to say, because we just feel really moved, and really lucky.”
