The actor and comedian called Australians "English rednecks" in an appearance on the Late Show With David Letterman earlier this week. He had recently returned from a comedy tour in Australia.
Rudd responded to Williams's comments on the Triple M radio show in Melbourne on Wednesday.
"First of all, I think Robin Williams should go and spend a bit of time in Alabama before he frames comments about anyone being particularly redneck," Rudd said. "That's my first response."
