People are just realizing that Jeremy Clarkson is making a cameo in the iconic Disney movie
- The ex-Top Gear presenter voiced the popular character Harv from Cars
- Some were unhappy when they thought he had been replaced by Jeremy Piven
Fans of the beloved 2006 movie Cars were stunned to discover that Jeremy Clarkson has made an appearance.
Jeremy Clarkson is known for many things, but voicing the character of Harv from one of Disney Pixar’s most iconic films is an under-the-radar achievement.
Harv, the no-nonsense cop who worked for Lightning McQueen before being replaced, made his first appearance in the first film.
He also stars in the PlayStation 2 game Cars: Race-O-Rama.
The character is known for being stern, often telling his clients not to focus strictly on racing.
Never seen on screen, McQueen talks to Harv on his speakerphone on his way to a decision race.
The only times fans get to hear Harv are through McQueen’s speaker (pictured above), he is never seen in the movie
Fans were shocked to discover the ex-Top Gear host was the voice of Lightning McQueen boss Harv
We don’t know too much about the character, except that he would give Mack – McQueen’s transporter – the briefcase if he couldn’t get the star racer into his trailer.
Fans shared their thoughts, shocked to discover the famous face behind the beloved character.
One user said, “How old were you when you found out that the boss of lightning McQueen (Harv) in the movie cars was voiced by Jeremy Clarkson”
Another fan added, “Is Jeremy Clarkson Harv into cars? Wow! I never noticed that.’
But some viewers were unhappy when they thought Harv’s familiar voice had changed.
One viewer commented, “Has anyone else noticed Harv’s voice changed to @Disney Cars?! It’s no longer @Jeremy Clarkson!
While another shared, “I was years old today when I realized that Disney Pixar removed Jeremy Clarkson from the voice of ‘Harv’ from Cars.” Day ruined.’
Viewers were saddened on Twitter when they thought Mr. Clarkson’s voiceover of the character had been replaced, but he quickly corrected the misinformation
The stern cop also said he would fire Mack – Lightning McQueen’s transporter (pictured) – if he didn’t get the star in his trailer
But fear not, Mr. Clarkson has not been replaced as Harv.
As it turns out, the UK and US versions of the movie have different voice actors for the character, with Clarkson’s US counterpart being Jeremy Piven.
But British fans of the movie were unhappy to discover that the Disney+ version doesn’t feature the Harv voice they know and love.
One said, “Jeremy Clarkson will forever be a better voice of Harv than Jeremy Piven in cars.”
While another chimed in: “WT* Disney+ doesn’t have Jeremy Clarkson as Harv but the US version, I’m furious.”
Another joked, “I’m sorry, but the fact that Jeremy Clarkson isn’t the stock voice for Harv in Cars on Disney Plus is a travesty.”
