Sunny has been cast as a voice actor for the animated film Koala Kid: Birth of a Hero.

She will portray the cheerful and sunny voice of a beautiful koala named Miranda, while SHINee’s Taemin will voice the role of a male koala named Johnny who strives to protect their Australian natural habitat from alligators.

The film, also known as The Outback, is set for release in January 2012 in fifteen different countries.

Following in the footsteps of her other half Taeyeon and Seohyun, who lent their voices to the Korean dub of Despicable Me in 2010, Sunny is the third member of SNSD to voice act in a major animated film.

Just as Tiffany explained at the MAMA pre-show press conference, it is certainly great seeing more SNSD members involved in other activities in the entertainment industry besides SNSD’s musical promotions.
