According to Pierre Salvador, he said that he originally recorded the voice for the narrator and the third blueberry henchman in the 2008 CGI film Berry Blast Off 2 when it was still in production in 2000 by Warner Feature Animation as a CGI film. Also still in production was Berry Blast Off: Sour Supreme!, which was a cancelled CGI animated film by Mainframe Entertainment and Columbia/Tri-Star without Warner Bros. Feature Animation's involvement. In the cancelled threequel, Salvador returned to voice Prince Blueberry and a sour version of him. A terrible test screening incident where people complained that the movie was "too dark and scary" led this film into cancellation.
