Jim Meskimen: A Man of a Million Voices on Landman, Hippos, and What Makes an Impression Great

Jim Meskimen is one of those rare performers who can disappear into a thousand different voices while somehow remaining completely himself.

In this return visit to Classic Conversations, Jim breaks down his current wave of on-screen work, from trading blows with Billy Bob Thornton on Landman to surviving a hippo attack in the upcoming thriller Hungry. He also opens up about the craft of impression, what it really takes to hear a voice the way he does, and what it was like spending a week working alongside the legendary William Shatner.
