Who are Julia Butters parents?
Darrin Butters (father)
Date of birth: 1969
Julia is obviously talented, and her gift as an entertainer can come from nothing. She inherited it from her father, a famous animator. Although his face is not known to the wide audience, Darren Butters (that’s Julia’s daddy’s name), he stands behind the well-known hits. He worked on the characters in the action “Eight Legged Freaks” in 2002. His recent projects include the hits “Zootopia”, “Moana”, “Wreck-It Ralph”, “Frozen” and others.
Despite a super successful career, Darrin doesn’t consider creating animation characters as his main achievement. First of all, he is the father of a vivid sweet girl Julia, a husband of the beautiful lady Lorelei and a passionate fisherman.
Lorelei Hill-Butters (mother)
Date of birth: 1970
Julia’s mother is not an alien in the movie world, too. She is a voice actress. Lorelei gave her soft pleasant voice to Queen Athena from the animation film “The Little Mermaid: Ariel’s Beginning”.
Mrs. Butters put lots of effort to help her talented daughter start acting at a very early age. She took little Julia for auditions and helped her to memorize the lines. Julia started to act at the kindergarten age, and she wasn’t able to read then. So, her mother sat by her side and read her the text, which the little actress had repeated until she knew it by heart.
