Benson explained that because "the various projects that I am affiliated with in my career are family-based, children-based," voice acting director Kris Zimmerman suggested that she go with a pseudonym. This decision was ultimately made by Benson, indicating her awareness of brand alignment and the importance of maintaining a distinct professional image based on her established roles.
Our director, she sat down with me and she's was like, 'Maybe we need to change your name,' Benson recalled. 'So she asked me, 'What was your dog's name growing up?' and I said, 'Suzette Monet.' So she's like, 'You know what? Let's build on that...I was like, 'Sounds like a deal.' This exchange highlights the personal nature of voice acting decisions and how they can be influenced by one's past.
Benson, Zimmerman, and the rest of the Metal Gear Solid 3 voice cast weren't the only ones to know about Suzetta Miñet's alter ego. According to Benson, seven years ago...someone slipped a copy of Snake Eater to her, apparently for Benson to sign. The unexpected fan interaction reveals how even actors can be surprised by their own hidden roles in video games.
