What other people say about Alex

The two kids in this movie [Mae Whitman and Alex D. Linz] were great. I mean, it's not always easy--because they're kids. They do the best that they can, but they're kids. But these kids were phenomenal. They'd act up a little bit, but they were so mature and so talented. So we were really, really fortunate. -Michelle Pfeiffer


Simply put, this kid's got the goods. -Larry Miller


Physically, there were bigger kids, more muscular kids, more handsome kids. But Alex had a charm about him, a charisma. -Tim Hill



Alex gave me a lot of ideas as to how young Tarzan would act or react in certain situations. His delivery suggested lots of expressions and in between takes it was fun to watch him run around and play energetically. -John Ripa, the animator of Tarzan



Well, if he drank caffeine, he would be able to walk up walls. We had fun and teased each other. I had no idea what a paramecium was, and he told me. -Mae Whitman


My acting couch had this bright idea to take us to a Dodgers game. I was sitting with a pizza on my lap. And Alex had me so wound up, I stood up to cheer- and SPLAT all over my lap! Then Alex got a snow cone, and he was squeezing his cup so the ice would move up and down. He did it a little too hard, and it popped out- right on the people behind us. Luckily they just laughed.. -Mae Whitman again
