{{trope}}
* '''Arthur Holden'''
** Voices both Mr. Ratburn and the Bionic Bunny from [[Arthur (Animation)|Arthur]] and Hugh Darrow in ''[[Deus Ex Human Revolution (Video Game)|Deus Ex Human Revolution]]''.
 
* '''Bruce Dinsmore'''
** Dinsmore voices Dave Read, [[Arthur (Animation)|Arthur]]'s dad and William Taggart in ''[[Deus Ex Human Revolution (Video Game)|Deus Ex Human Revolution]]''.
** Don't forget Tubby from ''[[Little Lulu|The Little Lulu Show]]''.
 
== A ==
* '''[[Jensen Ackles]]'''
** Jensen Ackles, usually known as Dean Winchester in ''[[Supernatural (TV series)|Supernatural]]'' is also the Red Hood in ''[[Batman: Under the Red Hood]]''.
** And Gibson in ''[[Tron Evolution]]''.
 
* '''Don Adams'''
** Don Adams of ''[[Get Smart (TV)|Get Smart]]'' fame provided the voice for the remarkably similar title character ''[[Inspector Gadget (Animation)|Inspector Gadget]]''. When I found this out as a child, I was overjoyed.
*** Adams' credits also include voicing [[Tennessee Tuxedo and His Tales]], another character the not-so-young might remember from their youth.
 
* '''[[Charlie Adler]]'''
** Played [[My Little Pony|a baby dragon]], [[Tiny Toon Adventures (Animation)|a boy rabbit]], [[Rocko's Modern Life|two big-headed toads]], [[Cow and Chicken (Animation)|a cow, a chicken, a baboon and a guy who never wears pants]]. He [[Darker and Edgier|also played]] [[Marvel vs. Capcom 3 (Video Game)|an omnicidal shapeshifting alien]] and a [[Transformers (Filmfilm)|a dastardly backstabbing alien robot.]]
** He was also an [[Transformers Generation 1|alien robot in a past life]] as well, but that one was less backstabbing and more afraid of heights.
 
* '''Pamela Segall Adlon'''
* '''Pamela Segall Adlon'''** Pamela Segall Adlon is pretty much who you go to if you need a gravelly voice for a pre-pubescent boy, though she voices girls very well as well. Bobby Hill of ''[[King of the Hill]]'', Otto from ''[[Time Squad]]'', Milo from ''[[The Oblongs (Animation)|The Oblongs]]'', Shinra from [[Final Fantasy|Final Fantasies X and X-2]], Spinelli from ''[[Recess]]'', Andy from ''[[Squirrel Boy]]'' (and, while we're on that, Kurtwood Smith would probably count, too), Ket from ''[[Kiki's Delivery Service]]'', [[Pajama Sam]], Vidia in the ''[[Disney Fairies|Tinker Bell]]'' movies and the titular character from the [[Arthur (Animationanimation)|Arthur]] computer games by [[Microsoft]].
 
* '''Marc Alaimo'''
** Besides being a (magnificent) bit part actor, he's also "that voice" of Reverend Ray Mc Call in the video games [[Call of Juarez]] and [[Call of Juarez]]: Bound in Blood.
** He also voiced the Dean of the Secret Order of Dirty Joke Writers in the ''[[Family Guy (Animation)|Family Guy]]'' episode "The Splendid Source".
 
* '''Lori Alan'''
** ''[[Metal Gear Solid 3: Snake Eater]]'' has The Boss, voiced by Lori Alan, who's much more recognizable for her work in various TV commercials, such as Sears and JCPenney. I get nostalgic visions of pillows and bed linens every time she opens her mouth, which could be a bit [[Narm|narmynarm]]y when she's telling you how to grab someone by surprise and take them down with an [http://www.konami.jp/gs/game/mgs3/english/system_cqc.html extra-violent handshake].
** She also voiced Pearl from ''[[SpongeBob SquarePants (Animation)|SpongeBob SquarePants]]'', Felina Feral in ''[[Swat Kats (Animation)|Swat Kats]]'', and Diane Simmons (as well as various bit parts) in ''[[Family Guy (Animation)|Family Guy]]''.
 
* '''J. Grant Albrecht'''
** Although [[Destroy All Humans!|Crypto]] sounds like [[Jack Nicholson]], he doesn't voice him. [[Metal Gear Solid (Video Game)|The End]] does.
 
* '''Alan Alda'''
Line 36 ⟶ 32:
 
* '''Yuu Asakawa'''
** Yuu Asakawa's fairly deep voice is pretty recognizable, especially as the fairly quiet, occasionally badass servant spirit [[Fate/stay Stay Nightnight|Rider]], and the fairly quiet, occasionally badass schoolgirl [[Azumanga Daioh (Manga)|Sakaki]]. Or [[Ikki Tousen|Chou'un Shiryuu]], [[Eyes Always Shut|who is not using her eyes too much]] like Rider.
** Or if you want her in 'alluring, seductive mode', look no further than two of GONZO's mecha anime, she is the voice of both '[[The Three Faces of Eve|seductress]]' blonde with either [[Marshmallow Hell|giant boobs to squeeze your head]] or [[Stripperiffic|outfit so sexy it hurts]]: [[Gravion|Mizuki Tachibana]], [[Vandread|Jura Basil Elden]] and [[Love Hina|Motoko]].
** You can also hear her sing anything in both English and Japanese as [[Vocaloid|Megurine Luka]].
 
* '''[[Ed Asner]]'''
** Ed Asner, who upon entering the field of voice acting has managed to appear in ''[[Freakazoid (Animation)|Freakazoid!]]'', ''[[The Boondocks (Comic Strip)|The Boondocks]]'', ''[[Batman: The Animated Series (Animation)|Batman the Animated Series]]'', ''[[Spider-Man: the Animated Series (Animation)|Spider-Man theThe Animated Series]]'', ''[[Gargoyles (Animation)|Gargoyles]]'', ''[[Captain Planet and The Planeteers (Animation)|Captain Planet and Thethe Planeteers]]'', and ''[[Jonny Quest: the Real Adventures (Animation)|Jonny Quest theThe Real Adventures]]'', all essentially voicing the exact same character: Ed Asner.
** ...and Granny Goodness in ''[[Justice League (Animationanimation)|Justice League]]''. Who's '''still''' essentially Ed Asner.
** And now [[Pixar]]'s ''[[Up (Animationanimation)|Up]]''.
** He's also [[Knights of the Old Republic|Master Vrook]].
** Actually, he plays against type in ''[[The Boondocks (Comic Strip)|The Boondocks]]'', as the [[The Man|evil Ed Wuncler, Sr]].
*** Not so much. [[Captain Planet|Looten Plunder]] is probably in the family tree somewhere.
 
* '''Rene Auberjonois'''
** Wasn't that [[Avatar: The Last Airbender (Animation)|uppity Earth Nation refugee with the long white beard]] [[Star Trek: Deep Space Nine (TV)|Odo?]]
*** He was also the cowardly War Minister Qin, and the wacky Mechanist who invented the hot air balloon.
** You may also recognize him as [[Justice League (animation)|Desaad, Galius, or Kanjar-Ro]].
** He's also [[Fallout: New Vegas (Video Game)|over 250 years old]] and commands an army of robots.
** And Chef Louis from ''[[The Little Mermaid (Disney)|The Little Mermaid]]''.
** And a [[Archer|German assassin with a baby-obsessed younger girlfriend.]]
** Didn't he [[Xiaolin Showdown (Animation)|teach Omi for a while?]] (for the first season anyway)
 
* '''Eleanor Audley'''
** You know her as [[Cinderella (Disney film)|Lady Tremaine]] and [[Sleeping Beauty (Disney film)|Maleficent]]. She also provided the voice for Madam Leota in ''[[The Haunted Mansion]]'' ride at the [[Disney Theme Parks]].
 
* '''James Avery'''
** ''[[The Fresh Prince of Bel -Air]]'''s Uncle Phil is also Shredder from the old ''[[Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles 1987 (Animation)|Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles]]'' cartoon.
*** And Gor the gorilla in ''[[Captain Simian and& Thethe Space Monkeys (Animation)|Captain Simian and The Space Monkeys]]''.
 
* '''Greg Abbey'''
** Brandon [not Sky! Stella's boyfriend!] in the [[4Kids! Entertainment]] dub of ''[[Winx Club (Animation)|Winx Club]]''.
** Tristan Taylor in ''[[Yu-Gi-Oh!]]''. 4Kids dub, of course.
** I swear I once saw a gum commercial where he was narrating. I'd automatically turn my head because.....hey, Tristan!
** He's now working for the TLC channel for their promos.
 
* '''[[Greg Ayres]]'''
** This trope must happen a lot with Greg Ayres. As an adult actor that just happens to have a naturally high voice, if [[ADV Films]] has a boy (or child-like male) they need to be filled (particularly if it'd be a challenging role for an actual child)? Chances are [[Pigeonholed Voice Actor|he will play it]]. In fact, he's so well known for playing these sorts of roles that he tends to encounter disbelief when he says he's the gravelly-voiced Hideki in ''[[Nerima Daikon Brothers (Anime)|Nerima Daikon Brothers]]''.
 
== B ==
* '''Jim Backus'''
** The first time this happened for me was when his four-year-old brain tried to wrap around the "fact" that Mr Magoo and Thurston Howell III of ''[[GilligansGilligan's Island]]'' were the same person---when your vision is bad and you've got paragnosia, voices are most of how you identify people and other persons.
** Backus also lent his voice to the Genie in the [[Bugs Bunny/Characters|Bugs Bunny]] cartoon ''A-Lad-In His Lamp''.
** He was also the voice of a friendly sewer rat in an 80s anime cartoon: "The Enchanted Journey".
 
* '''[[Diedrich Bader]]'''
** [[Batman: theThe Brave And The Bold (Animation)|Batman]] '''is''' [[The Grim Adventures of Billy and& Mandy|Hoss Delgado]] and [[The Drew Carey Show|Oswald]].
** He also played the much more toned down Zee in ''[[The Zeta Project]]''.
** I keep waiting for the episode where Batman sends the villains to "[[Office Space|federal pound you up the ass prison]]."
** [[SurfsSurf's Up|He's also Tank Evans.]]
** And he [[Napoleon Dynamite|teaches Rex Kwon Do.]]
 
* '''[[Laura Bailey]]'''
** Upon hearing Kuro's voice in the English dub of ''[[Kurokami]]'', I thought, "Wow...[[Disgaea 3: Absence of Justice|Raspberyl]] can really kick some ass!"
** Really? I was thinking [[Tales of Symphonia: Dawn of the New World (Video Game)|Marta Lualdi]].
** If not her, then [[Kodomo no Omocha|Sana Kurata]], maybe.
** Try [[Yu Yu Hakusho (Manga)|Keiko Yukimura]]. First time I ever heard her voice.
** Tohru of ''[[Fruits Basket]]'' as well. Laura Bailey is good at the sweet girl role, and she doesn't have a very wide range it appears, so easily recognizable. Not counting Lust from ''[[Fullmetal Alchemist (Mangamanga)|Fullmetal Alchemist]]''.
*** I would highly disagree about her "not having a very wide range". Though her voice is pretty recognizable once you realize where her ranges are ("Sweet girl", "Lust", and "Shin-chan" ranges...and then there's Kaine in [[Nie RNieR]], holy crap...)
** She started out as [[Dragon Ball (Manga)|Kid Trunks]] and went on to do [[Mahou Sensei Negima|Evangeline A.K. McDowell]].
*** She was Ayaka Yukihiro in ''Negima'' too; I don't know about you, but I couldn't tell they were the same person just by listening. Girl's got talent.
** Proves she can pull off some hammier roles too with Rise Kujikawa in ''[[Persona 4 (Video Game)|Persona 4]]''. The character herself is not a [[Large Ham]] most of the time, but Laura was clearly having a ''lot'' of fun during the '[[Crowning Moment of Funny|King's Game]]'.
*** Rise, meet [[Persona 3 (Video Game)|Minako Arisato]]. Minako, Rise.
** Say whatever you want about the ''[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=krlKKsd7XbM Sakura Wars: So Long, My Love]'' trailer, but the narration is the last thing I needed to determine if I would pre-order.
** I did not care about ''[[Soul Eater]]'' until I was asked to listen to the English trailer and pay attention to Maka's voice.
** According to her official site, she's playing Serah from ''[[Final Fantasy XIII (Video Game)|Final Fantasy XIII]]''. I think it's rather sweet that Laura's ''actually'' three years younger than Ali Hillis (the voice actress playing Lightning).
*** She also played the part of the [[Final Fantasy III (Video Game)|Cloud of Darkness]] in ''[[Dissidia Final Fantasy]]''.
** Laura Bailey is also the lovable Shin from the [[Funimation]] Dub of ''[[Crayon Shin Chan-chan]]''.
** Also Chun Li in ''[[Street Fighter IV (Video Game)|Street Fighter IV]]/Super Street Fighter 4'' and the female!Courier (who oddly sounds like Lust) and an NCR commander in ''[[Fallout New Vegas (Video Game)|Fallout: New Vegas]]''.
 
* '''[[Adam Baldwin]]'''
** [[Firefly|Jayne Cobb]] voiced [[Superman: Doomsday]][[DC Universe Online|man]], and did a few bit characters in ''[[Halo 3]]'' (where he even says "[[Actor Allusion|Say Hello to Vera!]]") and ''[[Half-Life|Half-Life 2]]''.
** He's also voicing the Heavy Weapons soldier in ''Halo 3: ODST''.
** He's a quarian marine in ''[[Mass Effect 2]]''. "They just pay me to shoot things."
** He also voiced [[Jackie Chan Adventures (Animation)|Finn]].
** He's currently the voice of [[Transformers Prime|Breakdown]].
 
* '''[[Christian Bale]]'''
** Howl in ''[[Howl's Moving Castle (anime)|Howl's Moving Castle]]''
 
* '''Eric Bauza'''
** [[Coconut Freds Fruit Salad Island|Slip and Slide]] are [[El Tigre|Randolfo Rivera (a hero)]] and [[Superjail (Animation)|Lord Stingray (a villain)]]
 
* '''Beau Billingslea'''
** Provided the voice for Jet Black in the dubbed version of ''[[Cowboy Bebop (Anime)|Cowboy Bebop]]'', as well as characters in ''[[Naruto (Manga)|Naruto]]'', ''[[Samurai Champloo (Anime)|Samurai Champloo]]'', ''[[Wolfs Rain (Anime)|Wolfs Rain]]'', ''[[Ghost in The Shell Stand Alone Complex (Anime)|Ghost in The Shell Stand Alone Complex]]'' (and others). He's also done voices for many video games, such as ''[[Dynasty Warriors]]'', ''[[Kingdom Hearts II (Video Game)|Kingdom Hearts II]]'', and ''[[Star Ocean Till the End of Time]]''.
** ''[[Bleach (Manga)|Bleach]]'' anime episodes 118-119. When I heard the voice of Arrancar 13 (Edorad Leones), I said "How did Jet Black become an Arrancar?"
** Also did narration for some of [[The History Channel]] programs. "Jet Black is talking about history!"
 
* '''Claudia Black'''
** Provides the voice for Morrigan in ''[[Dragon Age]]: Origins''.
** Also the voice for Chloe in ''[[Uncharted]] 2: Among Thieves''.
** And Steel Angel Michael (and the opening onmyoujii payer) in the English [[Steel Angel Kurumi]] dub.
** Voices a quarian admiral, a [[Cool Old Lady]], and a messenger for the Rachni in ''[[Mass Effect 2]]''.
** Cast as the voice of Samantha in the upcoming ''[[Gears of War|Gears of War 3]]''
 
* '''[[Dee Bradley Baker]]'''
** Speaking of ''[[American Dad (Animation)|American Dad]]'', turns out Klaus is voiced by [[Viewtiful Joe]].
** And ''[[Halo|Gravemind]]''. Yes, a talking German goldfish is voiced by the same guy that voiced the [[Hive Mind]] of the most [[Nightmare Fuel|horrible]] thing in the galaxy.
*** Who, on the other hand, also voiced a [[Phineas and Ferb (Animation)|semi-aquatic egg-laying mammal of ACSHUN]]!
** Basically, if you want an animal noise, you get Baker. Even if they happen to be [[Avatar: The Last Airbender (Animation)|a ten ton flying hybrid that laughs in the face of god]], or a [[Bionicle|mutated scorpion humanoid]].
*** And hell, even ''aliens'' [[Ben 10: Alien Force (Animation)|aren't off limits]].
** He also voices Bone Hunters and the Skrall in ''[[Bionicle]]'' as well.
** He also voices every Clonetrooper in ''[[Star Wars: theThe Clone Wars]]'' from Commander Cody to Captain Rex, to the unnamed [[Red Shirt]] clones and manages to each one sound like individuals. The episode ''Rookies'' centered around Cody, Rex and a whole squad of clone troopers is a tourdeforce for Dee.
** He's also the voice of Olmec (the giant talking head) in ''[[Legends of the Hidden Temple]]''.
 
* '''[[Troy Baker]]'''
** The very moment I heard Troy Baker as [[Code Geass (Anime)|Schneizel el Britannia]], the first thing that came to mind was [[Fullmetal Alchemist (Animeanime)|Colonel Frank Archer]].
** I choked on my drink when I realized that [[Basilisk|Gennosuke]] was also [[Trinity Blood|Father Abel Nightroad]].
** I mistook Gennosuke's VA for [[Crispin Freeman (Creator)|Crispin Freeman]]. I had to check the credits to make sure it wasn't and was in disbelief!
*** The same for [[Tales of Symphonia: Dawn of the New World (Video Game)|Regal Bryant]].
** I can't vouch for how similar they sound (having never played ''[[Bleach (Manga)|Bleach]]'': ''Shattered Blade''), but finds it rather interesting that [[Code Geass (Anime)|Li Xingke]]'s English VA is apparently the same one that played Grimmjow Jaegerjacques.
** I still have difficulty reconciling [[Code Geass (Anime)|Schneizel el Britannia]] with Kanji Tatsumi from ''Persona 4''.
** Yuri Lowell from ''[[Tales of Vesperia (Video Game)|Tales of Vesperia]]'' has the same VA as Markus Vaughn from ''[[Trauma Center (Video Gameseries)|Trauma Center]]'' and Matt Baker (fittingly enough, because tha VA's name is Troy Baker) from the ''Brothers in Arms'' series.
** One day, I was watching [[ShinCrayon ChanShin-chan]] and after the end credits, I cracked up at the fact that [[Code Geass|Schneizel el Britannia]] was Action Bastard!!
** Also [[Soul Eater (Manga)|Excalibur]]
 
 
* '''(Long) John William Baldry'''
** I watched ''[[Re BootReBoot]]'' and was surprised to hear Dr. Robotnik's voice coming out of Gavin Capacitor's mouth...both are voiced by the late Long John Baldry, and both also happen to be [[Large Ham|Large Hams]]s who sport long red mustaches.
** I guess he ''did'' give himself a [[Memetic Mutation|prrromotion]]!
** There's another joke we could make here, but it would just be in bad taste. So don't you dare make it, you...you...{{spoiler|DOUBLE USER}}.
 
* '''[[Kathleen Barr]]'''
** When {{[[User|RAM Ch YLD]] this troper}} first watched ''Make Way For [[Noddy]]'', his jaw dropped when Martha Monkey spoke with the exact same voice '''and''' enthusiasm as Wheezie from ''[[Dragon Tales]]''.
 
* '''[[Dante Basco]]'''
** Dante Basco voiced [[Avatar: The Last Airbender (Animation)|Zuko]] and [[American Dragon: Jake Long (Animation)|Jake Long]], fueling shipping fantasies everywhere.
** [[Hook (Film)|Ru...fi...O!]]
** Who would have thought [[Avatar: The Last Airbender (Animation)|Zuko]] could dance? He played one of the Dungeon Kids, Ramos, in Take the Lead!
** Why did This Troper find that pouty [[Oranyan]] voice so familiar when [[Aion]]'s English beta came out? Because it's [[Avatar: The Last Airbender (Animation)|Prince Zuko]], of course!
** I'm a little ashamed to say I recognized him, not as Rufio, not as Zuko...but as Corey from "Extreme Days". Yeah, that [[Jesus Was Way Cool|christian]] [[Romantic Comedy]] about [[Xtreme Sport Xcuse Plot|extreme sports]]. I saw it in my youth group in high school, as my church had actually received a free copy.
** I think for me the height of awkwardness was hearing a random cocoon resident in FFXIII speak in Zuko's voice. I burst out laughing at how silly that association was.
** [[But I'm a Cheerleader|How 'bout the time he played a homosexual varsity wresler? ]][[You Just Had to Say It|Anyone?]]
 
* '''Emily Bauer/Blau/Jenness'''
** [[Ah! My Goddess (Manga)|Megumi Morisato]] shares a voice with [[Pokémon (Animeanime)|Dawn and Cynthia]].
 
* '''ArthurEric HoldenBauza'''
** [[Coconut FredsFred's Fruit Salad Island|Slip and Slide]] are [[El Tigre|Randolfo Rivera (a hero)]] and [[Superjail (Animation)|Lord Stingray (a villain)]]
 
* '''[[Michael Bell]]'''
** Michael Bell, who plays Raziel in ''[[Legacy of Kain]]'' has also done the voicework for [[Metal Gear Solid (Video Game)|The Fear]], [[Eternal Darkness|Peter Jacob (and uncredited ingame and cutscene voicework for Maximillian Roivas, but not the autopsies)]], [[BaldursBaldur's Gate|Haer'Dalis]], amongst many many other roles.
** Two I have to mention, one live action : Animated : ''Lance of the Lion [[Voltron (Anime)|Voltron]]'' ; Live : The amoral souvenir selling chopper pilot in a ''[[M*A*S*H (TVtelevision)|Mash]]'' episode "Souvenirs". Hearing his voice on that ep drove me crazy 'til I made the connection.
** Dark Fact in ''[[Ys (Video Game)|Ys I and II]].
** He's also done multiple roles in the ''[[Ratchet and Clank]]'' games.
*** This Troper couldn't help but laugh when he heard the Captain Qwark vidcomic narrator use the same voice as Medivh, the Last Prophet from Warcraft 3.
** He's also in the two-part first episode of ''[[Star Trek: the Next Generation (TV)|Star Trek theThe Next Generation]]'', "Encounter at Farpoint" as Groppler Zorn.
** Don't forget he's our favorite man of action/coma victim Duke in ''[[G.I. Joe]]''.
** And Bruce Banner from the 80's Incredible Hulk cartoon.
** Several voices in ''[[Syphon Filter]]: Dark Mirror''.
** Not to mention Drew Pickles, Chaz Finster, and Grandpa Boris on ''[[Rugrats (Animation)|Rugrats]]''.
** He also, in a Christmas special, provided the voice of everyone's favorite [[Bloom County|neurotic penguin from the funny pages]]
 
* '''H. Jon Benjamin'''
** H. Jon Benjamin as [[Home Movies (Animation)|Coach McGuirk]], [[Family Guy (Animation)|Carl]], [[Aqua Teen Hunger Force (Animation)|a giant moth monster (man)]],[[Lucy, the Daughter of Thethe Devil|The Devil]], even [[The Venture Brothers|an omnipotent master who hides in a necromancer's daughter's closet]]...
** When I watched ''[[Martin And Orloff]]'' I heard his voice knew I had heard it somewhere before. I was happy to finally put a face to the voice of Benjamin Katz.
** Um, ''[[Archer (Animation)|Archer]]'', anyone?
 
* '''[[Jeff Bennett]]'''
** This guy is in goddamn everything. Among his many credits are ''[[The Batman (Animation)|The Batman]]'', ''[[Dave the Barbarian (Animation)|Dave the Barbarian]]'', ''[[Freakazoid (Animation)|Freakazoid!]]'', ''[[Gargoyles (Animation)|Gargoyles]]'', ''[[Johnny Bravo]]'', and ''[[The Spectacular Spider-Man]]''. In ''[[Gargoyles (Animation)|Gargoyles]]'' alone This Troper is fairly confident he played just about every incidental character that wasn't a woman.
*** To make things a bit clearer, this is the guy who voices [[Gargoyles (Animation)|Brooklyn, Owen Burnett]], [[Batman: theThe Brave And The Bold (Animation)|The Joker]], [[The Spectacular Spider -Man|Montana/ Shocker]], [[Johnny Bravo]], [[Flap Jack|Peppermint Larry]], [[Transformers Animated|Prowl]], [[Ben 10: Alien Force (Animation)|Azmuth, Ghostfreak]], and even "Massa Colonel" Lynchwater from '''[[The Boondocks|The fucking Boondocks]]'''! And [[Candle Jack/Just for Fun|Candle Jack]], too.
** And ''Kyle freaking Katarn'' in [[Star Wars: Dark Forces Saga (Video Game)|Jedi Outcast]].
** Strakk and Tarix in ''[[Bionicle|BIONICLE: The Legend Reborn]]''
** And the stars of both of ''[[The Schnookums and Meat Funny Cartoon Show]]'s'' back segments, Pith Possum and Tex Tinstar.
** Huntsman in ''[[American Dragon Jake Long (Animation)|American Dragon: Jake Long]]''.
** Petrie in all ''[[The Land Before Time]]'' movies after the first.
** [[The Woobie|Xan]] in ''[[BaldursBaldur's Gate]]''.
** If you hear a character on just about any cartoon who sounds like [[Christopher Walken]], chances are you're hearing Jeff Bennett.
** Boog in ''[[Fanboy and Chum Chum]]''.
** Kowalski (and several other recurring characters) on ''[[The Penguins of Madagascar]]''.
** Dorkus in ''[[Planet Sheen (Animation)|Planet Sheen]]''.
 
* '''Jodi Benson'''
** If you're one of the rare people who watched the '90s Spider-Man cartoon BEFORE Disney's ''[[The Little Mermaid (Disney)|The Little Mermaid]]'', you're not going to be able to NOT think Ariel fell in love with Spidey. She even has red hair!
** Jodi Benson also voiced Millenia in the RPG ''[[Grandia II (Video Game)|Grandia II]]'': A ''sassy'' (and demonic) redhead with a taste for men.
** She even has a memorable cameo in ''[[Nausicaa of the Valley of Thethe Wind]]''
** And she's Tour Guide Barbie in ''[[Toy Story (franchise)|Toy Story]] 2'' (who, in the obligatory gag-reel outtakes at the end, complains about having to be smiling and perky all the time).
*** And, by extension, Barbie in ''Toy Story 3''.
** She was also Tula in ''[[The Pirates of Dark Water]]''.
 
* '''Gregg Berger'''
** [[Garfield and Friends|Orson Pig]] was the voice of [[Aaahh Real Monsters (Animation)|the Gromble]]. Who knew?
*** Also the voice of [[Transformers|G1 Grimlock]] and [[Metal Gear Solid 3: Snake Eater|The Pain]].
** Huh, [[Final Fantasy X (Video Game)|Jecht]] sounds kinda familiar... Wait, he's ''[[Spyro the Dragon|Hunter the Cheetah]]''?!
 
* '''Paul Bettany'''
** [[The Da Vinci Code|Silas]]? What are you doing working with [[Iron Man|Tony Stark]]? (Paul Bettany did both Silas and Jarvis).
 
* '''Martin Billany ([[LittleKuriboh]])'''
** He did the descriptive audio tracks for the [[Disney]] ''[[Star Wars]]'' films (really!). Here's a [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FeToTrmIN4E sample] of his voice describing a scene from ''[[The Last Jedi]]''.
** He also voiced Moonlight Knight in ''[[Sailor Moon Abridged]]''. Even with a fake Indian accent, he's still recognizable. Watch a [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QabMXrlmYXg&feature=youtu.be&t=375 sample] from episode 48/49.
 
* '''Beau Billingslea'''
** Provided the voice for Jet Black in the dubbed version of ''[[Cowboy Bebop (Anime)|Cowboy Bebop]]'', as well as characters in ''[[Naruto (Manga)|Naruto]]'', ''[[Samurai Champloo (Anime)|Samurai Champloo]]'', ''[[WolfsWolf's Rain (Anime)|Wolfs Rain]]'', ''[[Ghost in Thethe Shell: Stand Alone Complex (Anime)|Ghost in The Shell Stand Alone Complex]]'' (and others). He's also done voices for many video games, such as ''[[Dynasty Warriors]]'', ''[[Kingdom Hearts II (Video Game)|Kingdom Hearts II]]'', and ''[[Star Ocean: Till the End of Time]]''.
** ''[[Bleach (Manga)|Bleach]]'' anime episodes 118-119. When I heard the voice of Arrancar 13 (Edorad Leones), I said "How did Jet Black become an Arrancar?"
** Also did narration for some of [[The History Channel]] programs. "Jet Black is talking about history!"
 
* '''[[Amy Birnbaum]]'''
** Of particular note here might be the voice actress Amy Birnbaum. If nothing else, she's definitely not typecasting herself, having played many varying types of character. Her list to date includes Tea Gardner in ''[[Yu-Gi-Oh!]]'', Lilly in ''[[Shaman King]]'', several characters in ''[[Sonic X]]'' including anime-exclusive character Cosmo, Stella in ''[[Winx Club (Animation)|Winx Club]]'', Scarlett and the Baroness in ''[[G.I. Joe: Sigma 6]]'' and probably a few others we're not aware of.
** Didn't she voice Charmy Bee from ''[[Shadow the Hedgehog]]'' onward?
 
* '''EricClaudia BauzaBlack'''
** Provides the voice for Morrigan in ''[[Dragon Age]]: Origins''.
** Also the voice for Chloe in ''[[Uncharted]] 2: Among Thieves''.
** And Steel Angel Michael (and the opening onmyoujii payer) in the English [[Steel Angel Kurumi]] dub.
** Voices a quarian admiral, a [[Cool Old Lady]], and a messenger for the Rachni in ''[[Mass Effect 2]]''.
** Cast as the voice of Samantha in the upcoming ''[[Gears of War|Gears of War 3]]''
 
* '''[[Mel Blanc]]'''
** If you've watched a lot of [[Looney Tunes]] shorts you could pick up [[Mel Blanc]]'s voice almost anywhere, for example Private Snafu, [[Secret Squirrel]], and [[Heathcliff and The Catillac Cats (Animation)|Heathcliff]] sound like [[Bugs Bunny/Characters|Bugs Bunny]], Mr. Spacely sounds like Yosemite Sam, [[The Flintstones|Barney Rubble]] sounds like Hugo the Abominable Snowman and Hula Hoop sounds like Marvin the Martian.
** In addition to being the voice of just about ALL the classic [[Warner Bros]] animated characters (except Elmer Fudd and the ones voiced by June Foray, [[Stan Freberg (Creator)]], Bea Benaderet, or Billy Bletcher), he was Twiki the robot, Tucker the mouse, [[Speed Buggy (Animation)|Speed Buggy]], Jack Benny's famous Maxwell car, [[The Monkees (Musicband)|The Monkees]]' car, and dozens more.
** He also voiced the father of Bob and Doug McKenzie in ''[[Strange Brew]]''.
 
* '''[[Brian Blessed|BRIAN BLESSED]]!'''
** The game may not have been great, and the actor could've been missed due to his uncharacteristic [[Large Ham|un-hammy]] performance; but the Admiral in ''[[Warhammer 4000040,000]]'' Firewarrior was voiced by '''''BRIAN BLESSED'''''.
** The villianous Clayton in Disney's ''[[Tarzan (Disney film)|Tarzan]]'' is '''''BLESSED'''''-- as is the Tarzan yell, as Tarzan's regular voice actor couldn't do it vigorously enough!
** '''''BLESSED''''' voices [[Star Wars|Boss Nass]], too!
** And now, he's in your GPS, too!
Line 235:
* '''[[Steve Blum]]'''
** All life on Earth.
** You want vocal range? Steven Blum is [[Naruto (Manga)|Orochimaru]] and [[Batman: Arkham Asylum|Killer Croc]].
** Despite working under several different aliases, David Lucas / Steven Jay Blum / [[Cowboy Bebop (Anime)|Spike Spiegel]]'s voice is always recognizable when voicing adult male characters, (though he does have a significant range outside of that).
** [[Camp Gay|Exception]]: [[Tengen Toppa Gurren Lagann (Anime)|Leeron.]]
** It's [[Digimon Frontier|JP]] sounding much more suggestive than he should.
*** Or [[Megas XLR|Jamie]], but even shriller (''Monkey thing!'')
** Leeron aside, I have had repeated notable experiences with [[Hey, It's That Voice!]] humbly deemed "Blum Moments", tending to not expect it: ''Strait Jacket'', ''[[Code Geass (Anime)|Code Geass]]'', the ''[[Street Fighter Alpha (Video Game)|Street Fighter Alpha]]'' movie, ''[[Wolverine]]''... he also [[Actor Allusion|just had to pull a Spike]] in his farewell to [[Toonami]].
{{quote| "''Bang.''"}}
** Since Blum does so many kinds of voice acting, it's always weird to hear [[Cowboy Bebop (Anime)|Spike]] or [[Code Geass (Anime)|Todoh]] try to sell me something in a TV commercial.
{{quote| '''"Oh thank heaven."'''}}
** Steve Blum is the voice for Captain Bartlett in ''Ace Combat 5''. So, essentially, you're flying wingman for [[Cowboy Bebop (Anime)|Spike Spiegel]]...
** He's also in a number of anime series ({{[[User|PG 556]] I have}} ID'd a naval officer in ''[[Ghost in Thethe Shell]]'' and a random merc in Anime/''[[Trigun]]'') and as the commander in ''[[Company of Heroes]]'' and ''[[Star Wars]]: [[Empire At War]]''. A quick browse of his IMDB page shows that he has been rather busy over the years...
*** It's a rarity these days to find an anime or game without Blum's voice acting, that's how prolific he is. Off the top of my head, he also voices at least 5 characters in the ''[[.hack]]'' games (both series) and Daelan Red Tiger in the original ''[[Neverwinter Nights]]'' campaign. She also did a facepalm upon recognizing him as the voice of Wolverine in the original ''[[X -Men Legends]]'' game.
*** [[Dawn of War|"One chance is all I need."]]
** I, out of nostalgia, popped in the original ''[[Rugrats (Animation)|Rugrats]]'' game for the [[PS 1]] when my friends came over. When I was playing the final level as Reptar, the reporter voiceover sounded oddly familiar. Checked the credits, saw Steve Blum, laughter ensued.
** I was incredibly surprised when I heard The Green Goblin in the phenomenal new ''Spectacular Spider-Man'' series, that has a laugh that is equally as disturbing as [[Mark Hamill]]'s as [[The Joker]], was the gravelly Steve Blum.
** One of the reasons this Troper loved [[Digimon Adventure 02|Flamedramon]] so much.
** Steven Blum has also been the voice of [[Final Fantasy VII (Video Game)|Vincent Valentine]].
** He also voices Ulquiorra in ''[[Bleach (Manga)|Bleach]]: Shattered Blade'', the video game for the Wii. Sadly he didn't stay in the anime.
** You'd never guess it, or at least I didn't, but he plays Falcomon in ''[[Digimon Data Squad]]''. The thing that makes it unbelievable is that he uses an English accent.
** [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=a3hsdevGgwU Oh, by the way...]
** I cannot watch ''[[The Big O (Anime)|The Big O]]'' because it's way too distracting. (Interesting note, though: if you put Faye in a suit and give her a bleach job, you get [[Wendee Lee|Angel]]!)
** [[Idiot Hero|Kazuma]] from ''[[S-Cry-ed]]''.
** [[Big Bad|Makoto Shishio]] from ''[[Rurouni Kenshin]]''.
Line 264:
** In another Bioware Title, he voices Oghren in Dragon Age, and returned in its expansion. That's a main character. God knows where he finds the time to do everything he does.
** He's also Andrei, the [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mfBdZ8ICWBM unsetting] Tzimisce elder in ''[[Vampire: The Masquerade Bloodlines|Vampire the Masquerade: Bloodlines]]''. If you listen carefully you can tell it's him, but it might not be obvious at first.
** His [[Naruto (Manga)|Zabuza Momochi]] is identical to his [[Wolverine]] voice.
** Don't forget, he voiced all the [[Psychonauts (Video Game)|G-Men]]...
** This troper was delighted to find Blum voicing Barricade in Transformers: War For Cybertron.
*** He also does the voiceover for the beginning of each chapter of the campaign.
*** And he'll be Starscream in ''[[Transformers Prime]]''.
** He also voices ''[[Bulletstorm (Video Game)|Grayson Hunt]]''
** He now voices the Red Skull in ''[[The Avengers: Earth's Mightiest Heroes (Animation)|Avengers Earths Mightiest Heroes]]'', meaning he now has had the honor of voicing two of Marvel's [[Complete Monster|Complete Monsters]]s. The Other being Green Goblin of course.
** He also did the voices of Vilgax, Heatblast, and "baby Heatblast" (at least) in the original ''[[Ben 10 (Animation)|Ben 10]]''.
** Ares, the [[Title Drop|titular]] ''[[God of War (Video Gameseries)|God of War]]''.
** Dark Star, the [[Final Boss|Top Ranked Assassin]] in "[[No More Heroes]]".
** He is the ass-kicker [[Marvel vs. Capcom 3 (Video Game)|Taskmaster]] to your ass-kickee.
** He puts on an Australian accent as John Sinamoi from [[Dead Island]].
** He is the baddest mofo in town, the all-powerful breakdancing Edo period samurai [[Samurai Champloo|Mugen]].

* '''Tom Bodett'''
** Tom Bodett is somewhat known as a radio personality, very well known as the voice of Motel 6 commercials ("We'll leave the light on for ya."), and also the narrator of several ''[[Animaniacs (Animation)|Animaniacs]]'' segments ("Good Idea, Bad Idea", "Mime Time", and [[The Movie]], ''[[Wakko's Wish (Film)|Wakkos Wish]]'').
 
* '''Jessica Boone'''
** Jessica has a "kind, but shy & unconfident young girl" voice that she used for [[Angelic Layer|Misaki Suzuhara]] and [[Chrono Crusade|Azmaria Hendric]].
** She was also the rather more self-assured Nayuki Minase in ''[[Kanon]]''.
** Now that you mention it, [[AbenobashiMagical MahouShopping ShoutengaiArcade (Anime)Abenobashi|Arumi Asahina]] ''does'' sound like [[Azumanga Daioh (Manga)|Chiyo-chan]] if she were older and had an Osakan accent...
 
* '''Powers Boothe'''
** Powers Boothe played the visionary genius Gorilla Grodd on ''[[Justice League]]'', then was an ambitious politician on ''[[Twenty Four24]]''. It's funny to hear Grodd trying to govern the country.
 
* '''David Boreanaz'''
** I thought Leon Squall in ''[[Kingdom Hearts]]'' sounded awfully damn familiar and couldn't figure out why. It got to the point where it was driving me nuts, so I looked it up on Wikipedia and was all Hey! No wonder- it's [[Bones|Booth]] and ''[[Angel (TV)|Angel]]!''
** He also did the voice for Hal "Green Lantern" Jordan in 2008's ''[[Justice League: theThe New Frontier]]''.
 
* '''[[Ernest Borgnine]]'''
** This Oscar-winning actor IS Mermaid Man on ''[[SpongeBob SquarePants (Animation)|SpongeBob SquarePants]]'' and knows EEEEVILLLLLL!!!!!
 
* '''[[Johnny Yong Bosch]]'''
** [[Bleach (Manga)|Ichigo Kurosaki]], [[Trigun (Anime)|Vash the Stampede]], [[The Melancholy of Haruhi Suzumiya|Itsuki Koizumi]], and [[Code Geass (Anime)|Lelouch Lamperouge]] are all voiced by Johnny Yong Bosch, the main differences being they are angry, goofy, calm, and... a strange combination of the first and third, respectively. You might also remember him from his live-action role of [[Power Rangers|Adam Park]].
** Let's not forget [[WolfsWolf's Rain (Anime)|Kiba]], [[Eureka Seven (Anime)|Renton Thurston]], [[Tales of the Abyss (Video Game)|Guy]][[Devil May Cry (Video Game)|Nero]] (whom he also did the mocap for), [[Akira (Manga)|Kaneda]], [[Tengen Toppa Gurren Lagann|Rossiu]], [[The Prince of Tennis (Manga)|Shuusuke Fuji]], and [[Tales of Symphonia: Dawn of the New World (Video Game)|Emil Castagnier]]. The last one is a weird case, in that he usually sounds like Renton, except when {{spoiler|he's using the power of Ratatosk}}; then he sounds like Ichigo/Lelouch.
*** The constantly suffering Albert de Morcerf from ''[[Gankutsuou]]'' and Adachi from ''[[Persona 4 (Video Game)|Persona 4]]''. He also provides the voice bits for the Main character.
**** He's also the voice of [[The Last Remnant (Video Game)|Rush Sykes]].
** And maggot-obsessed Reiji from ''[[Gate Keepers]]''.
** On the subject of ''Valkyrie Profile 2'', HOW has NO ONE noticed [[Bleach (Manga)|Ichigo]] playing the role as a villain?
** Go watch an episode of ''[[Trigun (Anime)|Trigun]]'' in the English version. Pay attention to Vash's voice. Then go play any of the three ''.hack//GU'' games, again in English. Surprise! Johnny Yong Bosch is there as well, playing another gun-toting, lovable character named Kuhn. The resemblance between the two is actually almost eerie.
** He also played Archer and PJ in ''[[Ace Combat]] 5'' and ''Zero'' respectively. They actually sound the same in both roles.
** Strangely enough in ''[[Persona 4 (Video Game)|Persona 4]]'', I can recognize the usually cheerful Guy Cecil from [[Tales of the Abyss (Video Game)|Tales of the Abyss]] in Adachi, yet my sister can see that darker and rougher side of the former in the Protagonist.
** And he's [[Final Fantasy II (Video Game)|Firion]] in ''[[Dissidia Final Fantasy (Video Game)|Dissidia Final Fantasy]]''. Firion's voice is alternately a dead ringer for Ichigo or Lelouch, depending on the scene. It's uncanny, really.
*** He's recently been cast as [[Naruto (Manga)|Sasori]], who sounds like an odd cross between Itsuki and Lelouch.
** And he's even in ''[[Seirei no Moribito (Anime)|Seirei no Moribito]]'' as the First Prince and some random mook. Made this troper think that every anime that is not dubbed by 4-Kids has to have at least him, Steven Blum, Vic Mignogna, or Yuri Lowenthal.
** He's also ''[[Warriors Orochi|two]]'' [[Sengoku Basara|versions]] of the same [[wikipedia:Sanada Yukimura|historical figure]] and both tends to [[Hack and Slash|slaughter hordes of enemies]].
** And now, with [[Marvel vs. Capcom 3 (Video Game)|Marvel vs. Capcom 3]], he's [[Mega Man X (Video Game)|Zero]].
** [[Durarara (Literature)!!|Izaya]], anyone?
** Not to mention all the roles he's played under the pseudonym [[Kevin Hatcher]], such as Yuichi Taira in ''[[Paranoia Agent (Anime)|Paranoia Agent]]''.

** And [[Jackie Chan Adventures (Animation)|Captain Black, Ratso, and Melvin the Moose]].

** One-shot character Buck Rockgut in ''[[The Penguins of Madagascar]]''. Recognized it right away since it's Mr. Krabs without the pirate accent.
** He voiced Hank Anderson in ''[[Detroit: Become Human]]''.
 
* '''[[Corey Burton]]'''
Line 349 ⟶ 350:
** Considering the voice he uses for Cloud is his real voice, it's a bit... distracting every time Burton talks on ''[[General Hospital]]''
 
* '''[[Daws Butler (Creator)|Daws Butler]]'''
** Numerous characters for numerous studios, including [[Yogi Bear (Animation)|Yogi Bear]], Huckleberry Hound, Snagglepuss, and [[Quick- Draw McGraw]] for [[Hanna-Barbera]]; the Southern Wolf in [[Tex Avery]]'s Droopy shorts for MGM; [[Chilly Willy]] and Smedley the Dog for [[Walter Lantz]]; and Aesop's son in the "Aesop and Son" sketches on ''[[Rocky and Bullwinkle]]''. He also voiced Cap'n Crunch in commercials for many years.
 
* '''Pat Buttram'''
** Talk about an obscure one! Noted for his distinctive high-pitched voice, Pat, after starring in tv shows like ''[[The Gene Autry Show]]'' and ''[[Green Acres]]'', lent his voice to numerous animated movies and tv shows. He was [[The Aristocats (Disney)|Napoleon]], [[Robin Hood (Disney film)|The Sheriff Of Nottingham]], [[The Rescuers (Disney film)|Luke]], [[The Fox and Thethe Hound (Disneyfilm)|Chief]], [[Garfield and Friends|Cactus Jake]], and one of the toon bullets who assists Eddie Valiant in ''[[Who Framed Roger Rabbit?]]''.

** Try watching the Genie in the series [[Spin-Off]] of Disney's ''[[Aladdin (Disney film)|Aladdin]]'' and NOT think of [[The Simpsons (Animationanimation)|Homer Simpson]].
*** One episode of ''[[The Simpsons (Animationanimation)|The Simpsons]]'' had him reprise said role in one of Homer's dream sequences.
** Also the titular character in the ''[[Earthworm Jim (Animationanimation)|Earthworm Jim]]'' animated series.
** And Doc Brown in the animated ''[[Back to The Future (Animationcartoon)|Back to The Future]]'' series - even though Christopher Lloyd still portrayed Doc in the live-action parts of the show.
** Would you believe [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=i25yxZcy8kc&feature=related he did a voice] in ''[[The Legend of Zelda CDiCDI Games|Link: Faces of Evil]]'', identical to the one he uses for [[The Simpsons (Animationanimation)|Barney]]?
** As well as doing Earl from Cow and Chicken with the Barney voice, albeit higher-pitched.
** [[Hey Arnold (Animation)!|Never eat raspberries, boys...]]
** [[Planescape: Torment|I think, therefore I am... I think.]]
* Megavolt in ''[[Darkwing Duck (Animationanimation)|Darkwing Duck]]''.

** [[Recess|King Bob]] and [[Hey Arnold (Animation)!|Wolfgang]] are the same person.
*** Also [[Hey Arnold (Animation)!|Arnold's]] original voice actor until he hit puberty.
 
* '''Christine Cavanaugh'''
** As long as we're on the subject of ''[[Sonic the HedgehogSat (Animation)AM|Sonic the Hedgehog]]'', Christine Cavanaugh's divine drawl as Bunnie was pretty darn evident in her turn as ''[[Rugrats (Animation)|Rugrats]]''' Chuckie, just for starters. The only reason we don't hear more of her is her retirement a few years back.
** She also guest starred on ''[[The X-Files]]''.
** Not to mention [[Darkwing Duck (Animationanimation)|Gosalyn]], [[DextersDexter's Laboratory|Dexter]], and [[Aaahh Real Monsters (Animation)|Oblina]].
** Christine was the voice of ''[[Babe]]'' (the piglet).
** Also voiced [[The Critic|Marty Sherman]], whose in-show father is another prime example of this trope.
Line 391 ⟶ 394:
 
* '''Isshin Chiba'''
** If you ever wonder why ''[[Tekken]]'''s Jin has such a familiar [[Evil Laugh]], you've probably played the ''[[Jo JoJoJo's Bizarre Adventure (Manga)|Jo Jos Bizarre Adventure]]'' arcade fighter: both are voiced by Chiba Isshin, who is ''so'' good that he pulled off the [[Kiai]] without ''any'' modification.
 
* '''[[Minori Chihara]]'''
** [[Suzumiya Haruhi|Yuki Nagato]] sounds exactly like [[Lucky Star (Anime)|Minami Iwasaki]].
*** And a little like [[Minami Ke-ke|Chiaki Minami.]]
** [[Saki (Mangamanga)|Touka Ryuumonbuchi]] doesn't sound like either though.
 
* '''[[Luci Christian]]'''
** Serizawa from the English dub of ''[[Pani Poni Dash!]]'' and Asuna Kagurazaka from the English dub of ''[[Mahou Sensei Negima]]'' have exactly the same voice.
** She also plays at least four insane villains: [[Soul Eater (Manga)|Medusa]], [[Kiba|Despara]], [[Elfen Lied|Mariko]], and [[Claymore|Ophelia]].
*** This troper almost choked when he recognized Medusa's voice actress saying [[Ouran High School Host Club (Manga)|"Cat Monster"]].
** What about [[Azumanga Daioh (Manga)|Yukari-sensei]]?
** She also was the English VA for [[Black Blood Brothers|Cassandra Jill Warlock]]
 
* '''[[Cam Clarke|Cameron "Cam" Clarke]]'''
** Cameron Clarke, most famous for his role as Liquid Snake in ''[[Metal Gear Solid (Video Game)|Metal Gear Solid]]'', voices so many characters in so many games that it's slightly surprising to play an RPG ''without'' hearing his voice somewhere along the line. Hell, he ''is'' this trope.
** He [[World of Warcraft|works okay as an elf, a sorcerer and a space mummy]], but {{spoiler|a dragon? Not so much}}.
*** As a [[Western Animation/Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtle 1987 s|Turtle]] on the other hand, he's perfect.
Line 412 ⟶ 415:
**** When he played the Manaan Sith guard, he was Liquid.
***** Too bad his role as Simba in ''[[Kingdom Hearts]]'' wasn't too great.
** I had considerable trouble taking Andrei Ulmeyda in ''[[Killer 7Killer7]]'' seriously at first...because he was a black man with an afro and a bright yellow shirt who spoke in the exact same tone of voice as Liquid. That may have been intentional, though.
** When you hear Juji Kabane's voice in ''[[Gungrave]]: Overdose'', you're hearing an angrier, slightly [[Blood Knight]]-y [[Tales of Symphonia (Video Game)|Kratos]]. I was sad when Juji didn't yell, "JUDGEMENT!" or "Don't overdo it--FIRST AID!"
** He also voices an NPC that appears close to the end of Chapter 12 of ''[[Final Fantasy XIII (Video Game)|Final Fantasy XIII]]''.
** And let's not forget that he's the Geohound Ryudo in ''[[Grandia II (Video Game)|Grandia II]]''.
*** In a case of [[Talking to Himself]], he also plays Father Carius, the priest of Granas who hires Ryudo in the beginning of the game.
** [[Tropers/John Z|I believe]] that Cam Clarke is to Tales games as barrels and crates are to first-person shooters.
** He voices both the [[Big Bad]] and the leader of [[Gunship Rescue|The Big Damn]] [[The Cavalry|Cavalry]] in the second ''[[Veggie Tales (Animation)|Veggie Tales]]'' flick, ''The Pirates Who Don't Do Anything''. Which lead to very strange images in [[Blayde|my head]] seeing my own Blood Elf taunting Larry the Cucumber. It doesn't help that he does the exact same intonation between all three roles.
** He's also [[The Lion King (Disney)|Simba]] in many versions after the first film.
*** AND he sung the theme "We are One". Yeah, I was surprised as anyone else, especially since he has a GREAT voice...
** Not forgetting he fought the [[Eternal Darkness]] as Anthony.
** Or romanced the Spirit Monk as [[Jade Empire|Sky]].
** Or the father of everyone's [[Avatar: The Last Airbender (Animation)|favorite Blind Earthbender]].
** Or that he played [[He -Man and Thethe Masters of Thethe Universe (Animation)|He-Man]] in the 2000s series.
** He's also Prince Crescendo in [[Eternal Sonata]].
** Not to mention Meathook in ''[[Monkey Island]]''.
** As well as practically every 2nd person you meet in [[Assassin's Creed (Video Game)|Renaissance Italy]]
** And Max Sterling and Lancer in ''[[Robotech]]''. Incidentally, go rewatch the ending movie for ''[[Xenogears (Video Game)|Xenogears]]'' to hear Cam Clarke as a random unnamed radio tech guy who gets more lines than pretty much anyone else in the game.
** Let's not forget his early work such as the lead in ''[[Dogtanian and The Three Muskehounds (Animation)|Dogtanian and Thethe Three Muskehounds]]'' or Rigadon in ''[[Around the World With Willy Fog (Animation)|Around the World Withwith Willy Fog]]''
*** He resumes the role of a dog (albeit a blue one) in ''[[Clifford the Big Red Dog]]''.
*** If you want a full list, just look him up on [[The Other Wiki]].
Line 435 ⟶ 438:
** He also provided one of [[Peanuts|Snoopy's few speaking roles]]
** The doomed journalist Roger Howard from ''[[Dead Island]]'' is also him.
** Not to mention [[Mr. Bogus (Animation)|a certain tiny yellow-skinned gremlin-like creature]].
 
* '''Kevin Clash'''
** I was recently watching clips of the show ''[[Dinosaurs]]'' on [[YouTube]], and was shocked to realize that the baby (of "Not the Mama!" fame) had the same voice as Elmo.
** That's [http://muppet.wikia.com/wiki/Kevin_Clash Kevin Clash], who's done tons of other Muppet work, including an attempt at Sam the Eagle in one of the recent TV movies.
** Many people (especially the ones who disliked Elmo) may be surprised to find he was also the voice of Splinter in the ''[[Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles (Filmfilm)|Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles]]'' movies.
 
* '''[[Greg Cipes]]'''
** [[Teen Titans (Animationanimation)|Beast Boy]], [[Super Robot Monkey Team Hyperforce Go!|Chiro]] and [[Codename: Kids Next Door (Animation)|Numbuh 1's future son]]. What do all these three boys have in common?
** That was just his young boy voice. [[Ben 10: Alien Force (Animation)|Kevin Levin]] sounds a lot like [[WITCH (Animationanimation)|Caleb]], in his teenager voice.
 
* '''[[Colleen Clinkenbeard]]'''
** When watching ''[[Rebuild of Evangelion|Evangelion 1.0]]'', ''[[One Piece (Manga)|One Piece]]'', and then ''[[ShuffleSHUFFLE!]]'', one may be slightly surprised that [[Hot Scientist|Ritsuko Akagi]] and [[Covert Pervert|Kareha]] share a voice. Realizing that they both share the same voice as ''[[Idiot Hero|Luffy]]'', however? [[Mind Screw]], much...
** Also, [[Fullmetal Alchemist (Mangamanga)|Riza Hawkeye]], [[Ghost Hunt (Manga)|Ayako]] and [[Xxx Holic (Manga)×××HOLiC|Yuuko]]
** Patricia Tannis and Siren in ''[[Borderlands (Video Game)|Borderlands]]'' as well.
** And [[Ouran High School Host Club (Manga)|Eclaire]]

* '''[[Stephen Colbert]]'''
** [[Stephen Colbert]] (yes, ''that'' Stephen Colbert) gets around a bit. In addition to a few animated segments on ''[[The Daily Show (TV)|The Daily Show]]'' and the Tek Jansen cartoons on ''[[The Colbert Report]]'', he voices Ace of ''[[Saturday Night Live|The Ambiguously Gay Duo]]'', several characters in ''[[Harvey Birdman, Attorney Atat Law]]'', has guest-starred in ''[[The Venture Brothers]]'' and ''[[American Dad (Animation)|American Dad]]'', and (naturally) ''[[The Simpsons (Animationanimation)|The Simpsons]]'' (as lawyer Colby Krause).
** And now the [[Our Presidents Are Different|unnamed President]] in ''[[Monsters vs. Aliens]]''.
 
* '''Gary Cole'''
** [[Kim Possible]]'s dad. [[Harvey Birdman, Attorney Atat Law]], and [[Office Space|Mr. Lumbergh]]. He also does additional voices on ''[[Family Guy (Animation)|Family Guy]]'', including Mike Brady in many of the show's ''[[The Brady Bunch|Brady Bunch]]'' parodies (Cole played Mike in the live-action parody movies during the 1990s).
 
* '''Townsend Coleman'''
** Sentinel Prime on ''[[Transformers Animated]]'' is voiced by Townsend Coleman, better known to many veteran cartoon viewers as ''[[The Tick (animation)]]''. Obviously they [[Actor Allusion|know all about it]], as Sentinel is blue, super-strong, somewhat dim, prone to odd turns-of-phrase, and has an epic chin (The animators even admitted that they hadn't even designed Sentinel until they found out Coleman was voicing him). Unlike Tick, however, Sentinel is [[Jerkass|an insufferable jerk]] and Optimus Prime's [[The Rival|old rival from the academy]].
** Townsend Coleman also voiced Michelangelo in ''[[Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles 1987 (Animation)|Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles 1987]]'', Colt in ''[[Saber Rider and The Star Sheriffs (Anime)|Saber Rider and Thethe Star Sheriffs]]'', and Capeman in ''[[Inspector Gadget]]''.
 
* '''Christopher Collins (Latta)'''

* '''[[Jeffrey Combs]]'''
** Besides numerous roles in horror movies and several ''[[Star Trek (Franchise)|Star Trek]]'' series, he has lent his voice to [[The Question]] in ''[[Justice League Unlimited]]'' (the ultimate conspiracy theorist -- "The plastic tips at the ends of shoelaces are called aglets. Their true purpose is sinister!" -- as—as well as Huntress' boy toy), and before that he filled in as the Scarecrow in ''[[Batman: The Animated Series (Animation)|The New Batman Adventures]]'' (the tail end of ''[[Batman: The Animated Series (Animation)|Batman the Animated Series]]'').
** He also plays the Leader on ''[[The Avengers: Earth's Mightiest Heroes (Animation)|Avengers Earths Mightiest Heroes]]''.
** And now he's Ratchet on ''[[Transformers Prime]]''.
 
* '''[[Justin Cook]]'''
** This Troper noted that Justin Cook lent his distinctive vocal cords to an episode of ''[[Fullmetal Alchemist (Animeanime)|Fullmetal Alchemist]]''. It was really, ''really'' hard not to think of [[Yu Yu Hakusho (Manga)|Yusuke Urameshi]] that whole time.
** I, who heard Jusin Cook as Dietrich from ''[[Trinity Blood]]'' first, keeps expecting Yusuke to suddenly go insane and try to destroy the world.
*** I had the same reaction when I heard [[Fruits Basket|Hatsuharu]] speak for the first time.
*** Apparently, Chiba (his character in BECK) actually calls out a guy named Yusuke, I started laughing immediately.
*** On the other hand, he voiced Bellamy for ''[[One Piece (Manga)|One Piece]]'' and [[Tropers/Pika Hikari KT|I swear]] everyone who didn't know it was him thought it was Brian Drummond.
 
* '''Danny Cooksey'''
** Danny Cooksey. First he's a [[Tiny Toon Adventures (Animation)|kid millionaire]], then a [[Static Shock|a hot headed bully]], later a [[Dave the Barbarian (Animation)|softie barbarian]] and now [[Xiaolin Showdown (Animation)|Jack Spicer.]]
** Speaking of Jack, he worked for Wuya AND [[El Tigre|Santana Of The Dead]].
*** Also [[Hey Arnold (Animation)!|Stoop Kid]], though I still just call him [[Salute Your Shorts|Budnick]].
** Dare I say Keef of [[Invader Zim]] fame?
** It's fitting that [[Xiaolin Showdown (Animation)|Jack Spicer]] would want to outdo [[Phineas and Ferb (Animation)|Phineas and Ferb]]...
 
* '''[[Alyson Court]]'''
** It probably shouldn't be too surprising that the same voice of the girl that palled around with [[Beetlejuice (Animationanimation)|the Ghost with the Most]] would also be the voice of the girl that [[Resident Evil|mows down hordes of zombies]].
** She was also [[Clifford the Big Red Dog|Emily Elizabeth]] over a decade before [[Grey De Lisle (Music)DeLisle|Grey De Lisle]] was Emily Elizabeth.
** [[X-Men (Animationanimation)|Jubilee]] moonlighted as [[The Big Comfy Couch|Loonette the Clown]].
 
* '''Stephanie Courtney'''
** Believe it or not, [[Tom Goes to Thethe Mayor|Joy Peters]] is Flo from Progressive.
 
* '''[[Richard Ian Cox]]'''
** The voice of [[Inu Yasha (Anime)Inuyasha|Inu Yasha]] and [[Ranma ½ (Manga)|Ranma]] makes an on-screen appearance for an episode of ''[[Stargate Atlantis]]''.
*** He's also Pietro (aka Quicksilver) in ''[[X-Men: Evolution]]''.
** And he has a small part at the beginning of ''[[L Change the World (Film)|L: Change the World]]''. X3
** IIRC, he also voiced Randy the Sheep in an episode from ''[[The Penguins of Madagascar]]''.
** And in a notable [[Playing Against Type]] moment as Trap from the ''[[Geronimo Stilton]]'' [[Animated Adaptation]].
 
* '''Henry Corden'''
** Corden, who took over as the voice of [[The Flintstones|Fred Flintstone]] in 1977 after Alan Reed died, dubbed in scrubbed up dialogue for Jackie Gleason's more blue dialogue (as Buford T. Justice) in commercial TV screenings of [[Smokey and Thethe Bandit]].
* '''Terry Crews'''
** I got the shock of my life when Tom Dubois from ''[[The Boondocks]]'' got [[Prison Rape|anally raped]] by [[White Chicks|Latrell Spencer]]. Fortunately, that was just a dream, but it still haunts poor Tom.
Line 509 ⟶ 512:
* '''Bing Crosby'''
** He sang the Shell theme song in one of their commercials. As he started doing so, the animated Shell logo/mascot in the lower right corner said "I know that voice!"
** Bing also sang and narrated the "Sleepy Hollow" segment from Disney's ''[[The Adventures of Ichabod and Mr. Toad (Disney)|The Adventures of Ichabod and Mr. Toad]]'', as well as providing the voices for Ichabod Crane and Brom Bones.
** He was also one of the singers in a classic ''[[Little Lulu]]'' short. Look it up.
 
* '''[[Peter Cullen]]'''
** Peter Cullen has not only voiced [[The Transformers (Animationanimation)|Optimus Prime]] since the '80s (Ironhide too, but only in the 80s) -- during most of that time, he also provided the voice of [[The Eeyore|Eeyore]] in Disney's various Pooh offerings. Once you're aware of that, you soon realize that the only difference is one of ''attitude'', not ''timbre''.
{{quote| ''"Thanks for noticing me," said the forty-foot robot.''}}
** Speaking of ''[[Knight Rider]]'', the voice of KITT's [[Evil Twin]] KARR was provided by none other than Peter Cullen, an actor who would later become very well known for voicing another vehicle of radically different morality.
** Not to mention helping out another giant robot who needed a narrator, and then a commander for its second incarnation. "From Days Of Long Ago...From Uncharted Regions Of The Galaxy...Comes A Legend...The Legend Of...[[Voltron]], Defender Of The Universe." To use the vehicle analogy again, that intro is like the supremely cool hood ornament on a sweet set of wheels.
** Cullen was not only the narrator, but also voiced Coran in the ''[[Go LionGoLion]]'' series (Lion Voltron) and Commander Hawkins in the ''[[Dairugger XV]]'' series (Vehicle Voltron)
** Cullen also did most of the commercials for ''[[Toonami]]'', and still announces for Cartoon Network from time to time.
** Hearing the voice of Optimus Prime saying ''[[Bobobo-Bo BoboboboBo-bobo]]'' was one of the more [[Narm|Narmful]]ful television viewing moments for me.
** He also does the occasional beer commercial.
** And no-one will soon forget his show-stealing performance in ''[[Fallout 3 (Video Game)|Fallout 3]]'' as Liberty Prime, who is basically an extremely anti-Communist [[Expy]] of Optimus Prime.
{{quote| Liberty Prime: Death is a preferable alternative to Communism!}}
** The return of Peter Cullen as [[And the Fandom Rejoiced|Optimus Prime]] in the ''[[Transformers (Filmfilm)|Transformers]]'' films. [[Memetic Mutation|NOW GIVE HIM YOUR FACE!!]].
 
* '''[[Jim Cummings]]'''
** Jim Cummings, who plays Minsc in ''[[BaldursBaldur's Gate]]'', also did [[Darkwing Duck (Animationanimation)|Darkwing Duck]]. Negaduck sounds very much like ''[[Spider -Man: theThe Animated Series]]'' villain Shocker.
** Let's not forget his time as [[Winnie the Pooh|a hunny-loving bear]] (and Tigger, too, after [[Paul Winchell]] retired).
*** Jim's voice for Pooh is also his voice for the mancub-hungry Kaa the snake in all recent appearances of Disney's ''[[The Jungle Book (Disney film)|The Jungle Book]]''. Since Kaa's [[Giggling Villain]] act sounds just like a tickled-pink Pooh, it can be a good dose of [[Nightmare Fuel]] to any child who notices. This is not exactly Jim's fault, however; original voice actor Sterling Holloway did the exact same voice for both roles.
** There's [[Darkwing Duck (Animationanimation)|Darkwing Duck]] plus his [[Evil Twin]] Negaduck and annoying neighbor Herb Muddlefoot; [[Winnie the Pooh]] ; Monterey Jack, Fat Cat, and Professor Nimnul in ''[[Chip 'n Dale Rescue Rangers (Animationanimation)|Chip 'n Dale Rescue Rangers]]''; Louie and Don Karnage in ''[[Tale Spin (Animation)|Tale Spin]]'', Razoul the Captain of the guards in ''[[Aladdin (Disney film)|Aladdin]]''; the laughing hyena Ed in ''[[The Lion King (Disney)|The Lion King]]''; [[Bonkers (Animation)|Bonkers]] and his pal Lucky Piquel; Pete in ''[[Goof Troop (Animation)|Goof Troop]]'', ''Mickey's Three Musketeers'', and ''[[House of Mouse]]'', as well as the Big Bad Wolf in the latter; the Tasmanian Devil in recent years; Fuzzy Lumpkins in ''[[The Powerpuff Girls (Animation)|The Powerpuff Girls]]'', the Shredder in the first ''[[Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles]]'' series, Dr. Robotnik in the darker ''[[Sonic theSat Hedgehog (Animation)AM|Sonic the Hedgehog]]'' cartoon, Ackar from ''[[Bionicle]]''... [[wikipedia:Jim Cummings|Check the list]]; you know this guy's voice.
** One of Jim's more impressive contributions for Disney came from the accidental loss of some of the audio for ''[[The Lion King (Disney)|The Lion King]]' during post production. Pay very close attention at the end of "Be Prepared". That's not Jeremy Irons singing.
*** Actually, that was because Jeremy Irons threw his voice out on the "You won't get a sniff without me!" line and couldn't complete the song, so they had Jim Cummings fill in for the rest. STILL Damn Impressive though!
** Cummings does a lot of work on ''[[Codename Kids Next Door (Animation)|Codename: Kids Next Door]]'', as well. One of his roles is even an [[Affectionate Parody]] of Minsc: an office worker-turned-berserker named Moosk.
*** One of his most tapped impressions is Sterling Holloway; in addition to Holloway characters Pooh and Kaa (in ''Jungle Cubs'' and ''[[The Jungle Book (Disney film)|The Jungle Book]] 2''), he's also been used in ''[[Animaniacs (Animation)|Animaniacs]]'' as a narrator of "touching, heartfelt stories."
** The top of this page mentions playing a voice-actor version of the [[Six Degrees of Kevin Bacon]] game. Since Jim Cummings played Steele opposite [[Kevin Bacon]]'s [[Balto (Animation)|Balto]], you can play the original version as well.
** Incidentally, he also has a memorable supporting role as the military General in the English dub of ''[[Laputa: Castle in Thethe Sky]]'', which is not too much different than his voicing of Razoul in ''[[Aladdin (Disney film)|Aladdin]]''
** Surprisingly, he now voices [[Thanos]] in ''[[The Super HeroSuperhero Squad Show]]''.
** He was the Terror Mask in the remake of ''[[Splatterhouse]]''.
** [[Cat DogCatDog|Cat]].
 
* '''[[Tim Curry]]'''
** [[Tim Curry]] has played his fair share of animated villains. You may recognise his distinctive laugh from such films as ''[[Fern Gully]]'' and ''[[The Pebble and Thethe Penguin]]''.
*** Didn't Hexus used to be a [[Clue (Filmfilm)|butler?]]
** Don't forget [[The Adventures of Jimmy Neutron|Professor Calamitous]] and [[The Wild Thornberrys|Nigel Thornberry]] (Nigel Thornberry is one of the few characters Tim Curry provided the voice for who happened to be a good guy).
** [[Tim Curry]], again, has been in almost any kids' cartoon you care to name. Most obviously ''[[The Wild Thornberrys]]'' or ''[[Hey Arnold (Animation)|Hey Arnold!]]'', ''[[The Little Mermaid (Disney)|The Little Mermaid]]'', ''[[Gargoyles (Animation)|Gargoyles]]'', ''[[Captain Planet and Thethe Planeteers]]'', and the ''[[Rugrats (Animation)|Rugrats]]'' movie, to pick a random half-dozen.
** For those who don't watch cartoons and decide to check them out, you will not stop imagining any of said characters above [[The Rocky Horror Picture Show|in fishnets, corsets, and heels]] as you watch.
** Tim Curry also played Stratos, the god of air in ''[[Sacrifice]]''.
** The Cat King in ''[[The Cat Returns]]''
** No less than the arch-pirate himself, Captain Hook in ''[[Peter Pan and The Pirates]]''.
** He was even in ''[[Gabriel Knight (Video Game)|Gabriel Knight]]'', playing the main character. He's also playing one of the few characters who actually sounds like they grew up in [[New Orleans]]...but the accent is obviously faked. There are occasions where you hear him suddenly lapsing into his natural voice for about a second while he talks. And this isn't something that happens once or twice...he does this ''every'' time Gabriel whispers and his voice pitch suddenly jumps into his most recognizable voice (a bit awkward hearing a British man portraying a man with an accent akin to the [[Deep South]]).
** It really doesn't help ''anything'' when Tim Curry also plays a bad guy in ''[[Scooby Doo]] and the Witch's Ghost'', and Long John Silver (again- a bad guy), in ''[[Muppet Treasure Island]]''...
** ...As well as the [[Big Bad]] (Doviculus) in ''[[Brutal Legend]]''.
** Mr. Curry also provided the voice of Melek, advisor to [[Big Bad|Prince Thrakhath nar Kiranka]], in ''[[Wing Commander (Videovideo Gamegame)|Wing Commander]] III''. (Melek in 4 was voiced by another actor, Barry Dennen. Just as well, as the muppet for the WC4 Melek was pathetic.)
** You just '''knew''' [[Dragon Age|Arl Howe]] was a bad guy when you heard Tim Curry's voice.
** Pretorius on [[The Mask]] cartoon.
Line 559 ⟶ 562:
** ''[[Anchorman: The Legend of Ron Burgundy]]'' has this real-life anchorman doing the opening and closing narration. Most people know him from A&E crime-show narration ("the Menendez brothers..."), but for anybody who grew up watching him on CBS 2-WBBM in Chicago, this was a special treat.
 
== D ==
* '''E.G. (Elizabeth) Daily'''
** Tommy Pickles on ''[[Rugrats (Animation)|Rugrats]]''. Buttercup on ''[[The Powerpuff Girls (Animation)|The Powerpuff Girls]]''.
 
* '''Jim Dale'''
** ''[[Harry Potter (Literaturenovel)|Harry Potter]]'' fans will probably recognize the distinctive voice of Jim Dale, who has done the American audiobooks of the series and also lent his voice to various DVD extras. This Troper was a little surprised to find his voice on ''[[Pushing Daisies]]''.
*** Don't watch ''[[PetesPete's Dragon]]'', then, or your head asplode. (Dale plays the villain.)
 
* '''Tim Daly'''
** A rare live action/animated crossover. I have a hard time watching Tim Daly in ''Private Practice'' without thinking "hey, it's [[Superman: theThe Animated Series]]! He'll save the day!"
** He also plays Mr. Kusakabe in Disney's redub of ''[[My Neighbor Totoro]]''
 
* '''Anthony Daniels'''
** While most famous for playing the droid [[Star Wars|C-3P0]], Daniels has had roles in which he appeared out of costume, including [[The Coroner]] on ''[[Prime Suspect]]''.
 
* '''William Daniels'''
** William Daniels, best known to tropers below a certain age as Mr. Feeney on ''[[Boy Meets World]]'' and to tropers above a certain age as Dr. Craig on ''[[St. Elsewhere]]'' was not credited for his role as the voice of KITT in ''[[Knight Rider]]''. I didn't make the connection until hearing him in the even earlier ''[[Seventeen Seventy Six1776]]''.
 
* '''[[Keith David]]'''
** You know, you owned [[Saints Row|Stillwater]] at one point, Keith.
** [[Halo|The Arbiter]] is a [[Mass Effect|Black Starship Captain]], and [[Gargoyles (Animation)|Goliath]].
** And [[Princess Mononoke|Okkotonushi the boar-god]] in the English dub of ''[[Princess Mononoke]]''. He also does the opening narration.
** As well as an [[Riddick|intergalactic Imam]] named... Imam.
** And the [[Dissidia Final Fantasy (Video Game)|god of discord]]. Dude's been busy lately.
** He unexpectedly plays a cat in ''[[Coraline (Animationanimation)|Coraline]]''!
** The voice of his guest villain character in ''[[Justice League]]'' episodes "Hearts and Minds" could be mistaken for Goliath's (ignoring the evilness)...
** [[Spawn|Yeah... as in... hell... spawn...]]
** I was watching a documentary in history class. Five minutes in, she went 'Holy crap! The narrator's ''Goliath''!' Made it much more entertaining, I assure you.
*** Keith David also wants to know if you're username ladiesman217 ([[Transformers (Filmfilm)|Barricade, the Decepticon police car]]).
*** In the game at least. Filmwise, he voices one of the original Primes in the sequel.
** Hey, the dude's hardcore. He tried to wipe out [[Justice League: theThe New Frontier|ALL of humanity once]]. It took [[How I Met Your Mother|Barney Stinson]], [[Xena: Warrior Princess]], [[Six Feet Under|Brenda's squicky brother Billy]], and [[Sex and Thethe City|Charlotte's frigid first husband]] banding together to stop him. And it still would have worked, if it wasn't for Angelus getting rid of some emotional baggage.
** In 2009 he was the voice for the [[Big Bad]] in a ''[[Dissidia Final Fantasy (Video Game)|Final Fantasy]]'' game and a [[The Princess and Thethe Frog (Disney)|Disney movie]], he just needs to be in a ''[[Kingdom Hearts]]'' game and the synergy will be complete.
** The guy is also [[Saints Row|gangsta on weekends]]. When he's not [[Mass Effect|IN SPAAAACE!]] anyway.
** He also voices Navy recruitment ads, National Geographic documentaries and the History Channel documentary, Comic Book Superheroes Unmasked.
** He also helped to fight off the invading Russians [[Memetic Mutation|while telling Ramirez to do everything]] in ''[[Call of Duty]]: [[Modern Warfare]] 2''.
** And [[The Princess and Thethe Frog (Disney)|he's got friends on the other side]]...
 
* '''Melissa Davis'''
** Her most famous role? [[Pani Poni Dash!|A certain so-called boring girl called Kurumi Momose]].
** She voices the girl of the Illusionary World in [[Clannad (Visualvisual Novelnovel)|Clannad]], as well as...Botan. No, really.
** [[Kanon|She would also slay invisible demons with a samurai sword]] and be involved in missions with [[Devil May Cry (Video Game)|Dante]] (in the anime, anyways).
** She doesn't speak often as [[Angel Beats (Anime)!|Shiina]], but she made the infamous scene from the OVA work just as well as the Japanese by making her more moe with a small laugh!
** She was once [[Le Chevalier Deond'Eon|Queen Elizabeth]].
** Her very first role was voicing Skuld in [[Mythical Detective Loki Ragnarok]].
** Think Kurumi if she was even more bubbly, and you get [[Demon King Daimao|Kena Soga]].
Line 612 ⟶ 616:
** Ned the Buenos Natchos Manager from ''[[Kim Possible]]'', is the exact same voice as the fast food manager in first season of ''[[Chuck]]''.
** Not to mention Mandark, and the Know-It-All from ''[[The Polar Express]]''. I began to age rapidly when I realized that, to kids from here on in, he will be better (and perhaps only) known as the Know-It-All than either Mandark or especially, The Primal Nerd from ''[[Grease]]''.
** He also uses his future Mandark voice for Snipes in ''[[Rock -a -Doodle]]''.
** Did you forget the pilot episode of ''[[Darkwing Duck (Animationanimation)|Darkwing Duck]]''? That's him as the ram.
** He also played a politically correct comedian in the ''[[Duckman]]'' episode "Joking the Chicken".
 
* '''Dana Delaney'''
** The voice for ''[[Wing Commander Academy (Animation)|Wing Commander Academy]]'' character Gwen "Archer" Bowman was provided by Dana Delaney.
** She's also Lois Lane in the [[DCAU]].
*** Also in the DCAU, Andrea Beaumont/Phantasm in ''[[Batman: Mask of the Phantasm]]''.
 
* '''[[Grey De Lisle (Music)|Grey De LisleDeLisle]]'''
** I actually pointed at the screen at that point and shouted "OMG, it's Azula! This [[Mass Effect|Random Asari diplomat]] must be trying to trick me somehow!". He laughed muchly when it turned out he was right.
** Jacqueline Natla is voiced by Grey DeLisle in both [[Tomb Raider]] "Anniversary" and "Underworld". Natla, especially in "Underworld", sounds ''exactly'' like [[Avatar: The Last Airbender (Animation)|Azula]].
** I did a double-take the first time I heard Azula talk, I never expected the voice actress for [[The Grim Adventures of Billy and& Mandy (Animation)|Mandy]] and [[Fairly Oddparents|Vicky]] to show up on ''[[Avatar: The Last Airbender (Animation)|Avatar: The Last Airbender]]''.
** And don't forget that she's also the current [[Scooby Doo|Daphne]]...and [[FostersFoster's Home for Imaginary Friends|Frankie]]!
** And [[Danny Phantom|Sam]]!
** Who is, creepily enough, also Emily Elizabeth Howard on ''[[Clifford the Big Red Dog]]''.
** And also [[The Spectacular Spider -Man|Betty Brant]]. Which made me whimper and curl into the fetal position when I found out, because Azula [[Psycho for Hire|scares her.]] I can't hear Betty's voice anymore without having...issues.
** She's the Wasp in the ''[[Ultimate Avengers]]'' movies too.
** In ''[[The Super HeroSuperhero Squad Show]]'' she's [[Ms. Marvel (Comic Book)|Ms. Marvel]].
** Not to mention [[Codename: Kids Next Door (Animation)|Lizzie]] and the titular character on ''[[Wow Wow Wubbzy|Wow! Wow! Wubbzy!]]''
** Don't forget her roles as [[The Replacements|Riley]] and [[As Told Byby Ginger|Brandon]].
** Or [[Xiaolin Showdown (Animation)|Kimiko]].
** She's also [[Batman: theThe Brave And The Bold (Animation)|Fire]]. I guess she isn't worried about being typecast as a flame wielding lady.
** Nah, after her work as [[Batman: theThe Brave And The Bold (Animation)|Black Canary]], everyone now will expect her to sing -- andsing—and awesomely.
*** She also sang in-character as Emily Elizabeth in a Clifford The Big Red Dog tribute album (that was coincidently published after [[John Ritter]]'s death). Her singing was awesome. The album not so.
** I was being chewed out for incompetence by [[Vampire Bloodlines|Therese Voreman]] when he suddenly realized she sounded awfully familiar. Especially considering what you later find out about [[Split Personality|her]]
** And now she's Scarlet from the ''[[G.I. Joe: Resolute]]'' series.
** Azula's voice, is Viconia. And Nalia. And Raelis Shai. And Illasera. The ''[[BaldursBaldur's Gate]]'' people got their money's worth from her.
** Now that I realize that she is also [[Star Wars: Clone Wars|Asajj Ventress]], [[The Grim Adventures of Billy and& Mandy|Mandy]] seems scarier.
** Various roles in the ''[[Knights of the Old Republic]]'' and ''[[Neverwinter Nights]]'' series as well.
** And Padme in the ''[[Star Wars: Clone Wars]]'' cartoons (but not the CGI series).
** And, also, female Bounty Hunter from ''[[The Old Republic]]''.
** And [[The Weekenders|Lor]]
** A REALLY [[Complete Monster|monstrous]] asari businesswoman in ''[[Mass Effect]]'' and its sequel.
** Nova and every Banshee in ''[[Starcraft II (Video Game)|StarcraftStarCraft II]]''.
** The female Wizard in ''[[Diablo III (Video Game)|Diablo III]]'', the fact that her portrait looks like Azula definitely helps too.
 
* '''Debi Derryberry'''
** [[Zatch Bell]] sounded like [[Jimmy Neutron]].
** [[Ape Escape (Video Game)|Monkey Pink]] from the third [[Ape Escape (Video Game)|Ape Escape]] game also tended to sound like [[Jimmy Neutron]] when she was angry.
 
* '''Jack DeSena'''
** Though his appearance was brief, when This Troper heard Jimmy Olson (Jack DeSana) on ''[[The Batman (Animation)|The Batman]]'' he immediately thought "WTF, [[Avatar: The Last Airbender (Animation)|Sokka]]?"
 
* '''Phyllis Diller'''
Line 661 ⟶ 665:
** [[Kim Possible|Dr. Drakken, and his cousin Motor Ed]], seriously. [[Western Animation]]/[[[Futurama]] Bender]].
** [[Vampire: The Masquerade Bloodlines|Smiling Jack the Anarch.]]
** Also the voice of Wakka and Kimahri Ronso in ''[[Final Fantasy X (Video Game)|Final Fantasy X]]''. Yeah. Go clean up your pants.
*** Not to mention the delightfully [[Large Ham|hammy]] Gilgamesh in ''[[Final Fantasy XII (Video Game)|Final Fantasy XII]]''.
*** Not to mention [[Gears of War|Marcus Fenix]], [[Samurai Jack|The Scotsman]], and [[Princess Mononoke|Gonza]]. Would this make John DiMaggio one of the best people ever?
*** [[Chowder|Radda Radda]]! (Translation: Oh, hell yeah!)
*** At one point he became an army of [[Halo|apes]] [[In Space|INSPACE]]!!!!!!
*** [[Batman: theThe Brave And The Bold (Animation)|only one word need be said]]: '''OUTRAGEOUS!'''
*** '''[[Fish Hooks|JOCKTOPUS!!!]]'''
** [[Tropers/Pikawil|This guy]] immediately recognized the voice of the Rhino in the ''Spider-Man 2'' video game (the [[The Problem Withwith Licensed Games|surprisingly good]] one of [[Spider-Man (Filmfilm)|the movie]]) as being DiMaggio at first hearing on the basis that it is basically a lower-pitched Bender.
** He was also freakin Toy Man in ''[[Superman: Doomsday]]''.
** On top of all that, he's also commentator Kreese Kreeley in ''[[Mad WorldMadWorld]]'' (using his Bender voice once more), along with [[Whose Line Is It Anyway? (TV)|Greg Proops.]]
** He's Hammerhead and the Sandman on ''[[The Spectacular Spider-Man]]'', and it's actually hard to tell they are both voiced by the same guy.
** He has played in three Ghibli dubs: Gonza in ''[[Princess Mononoke]]'' (as well as some incidental voices), various minor roles in ''[[Laputa: Castle in Thethe Sky]]'', and Ryutaro in ''[[Pom Poko]]''.
* A word of warning, don't watch ''[[Kim Possible]]'' before you watch ''[[Teen Titans (Animationanimation)|Teen Titans]]'', otherwise you will not be able to take Brother Blood seriously. Ever. You will however, be constantly expecting him to break into [[Angrish]] or cry out SHEGO! after nearly every sentence.
* He's also [[Adventure Time (Animation)|Jake the dog]]. It should be noted that he was the only cast member in the original ''Adventure Time'' short that is also in the show.
** [[Ben 10: Ultimate Alien (Animation)|Aggregor]], [[Batman: theThe Brave And The Bold (Animation)|Aquaman]], [[Chowder|Schnitzel]], [[Sym-Bionic Titan (Animation)|General Steel]], [[The Problem Solverz|Tux Dog]]. And all these characters' shows air on [[Cartoon Network|the same network]].
* Not to mention, [[The Joker]] in ''[[Batman: Under the Red Hood]]''.
* Rico in ''[[The Penguins of Madagascar]]''.
* Juggernaut from ''[[X -Men Legends]] II''.
* If you can even hear a little bit of Bender or Marcus in a voice, it is probably him.
 
* '''Bruce Dinsmore'''
** VoicesDinsmore bothvoices Mr.Dave Ratburn and the Bionic Bunny fromRead, [[Arthur (Animationanimation)|Arthur]]'s dad and HughWilliam DarrowTaggart in ''[[Deus Ex: Human Revolution (Video Game)|Deus Ex Human Revolution]]''.
** Don't forget Tubby from ''[[Little Lulu|The Little Lulu Show]]''.
 
* '''[[Ben Diskin]]'''
** [[Naruto (Manga)|Sai]] is [[Codename: Kids Next Door (Animation)|Numbuh One]].
** Few things are weirder than hearing [[Bleach (Manga)|Szayel Aporro Granz]] speak in English when you realize it's Numbuhs 1 ''and'' 2 talking about crushing guts with voodoo dolls.
** He's [[Blood+ (Anime)|Kai]] too.
 
* '''[[Aaron Dismuke]]'''
** Honda's ASIMO robot sounds an awful lot like Aaron Dismuke, the voice of Alphonse Elric in the first ''[[Fullmetal Alchemist (Animeanime)|Fullmetal Alchemist]]'' series. [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_khgt8ChiGo Observe!]
** Only if you've watched recent convention panels would anyone be able to realize he did Chika in ''[[Ouran High School Host Club (Manga)|Ouran High School Host Club]]''. Yeah, he's grown up quite a bit.
** He uses Alphonse's voice for [[Fruits Basket|Hiro Sohma]] (just with a lot more petulance.)
 
* '''[[James Doohan]]'''
** In ''[[Star Trek: the Animated Series (Animation)|Star Trek theThe Animated Series]]'', James Doohan voiced not only his signature character of Montgomery Scott ("Scotty") but also many others, including Lieutenant Arex, Commodore Robert April in "The Counter-Clock Incident" and Agmar in "The Infinite Vulcan."
 
* '''[[Michael Dorn]]'''
** Hello? Michael Dorn? Voicing a [[Saints Row|tattoo-clad gangster who beats the crap out of everyone he sees]]? And getting {{spoiler|tattooed with toxic waste}}? There is a god, and he likes this game.
** To ''[[Gabriel Knight (Video Game)|Gabriel Knight]]'' game fans, he will always be immortalized as the voice of Dr. John.
** In [[Fallout 2 (Video Game)|Fallout 2]], Micheal Dorn provided the voice for Marcus the Mutant, making it eerily familiar for any ''[[Star Trek: the Next Generation (TV)|Star Trek theThe Next Generation]]'' fans.
** He also voiced Kalibak in ''[[Justice League]]''. Sounded exactly like Worf.
** He also played John Henry Irons, aka [[Steel]] in ''[[Superman: theThe Animated Series|Superman: TAS]]''. For some reason the role was recast in JLU.
** ''[[I Am Weasel]]''.
** He's also playing Mata Nui in ''[[Bionicle]]: The Legend Reborn''.
** [[The Faceless|His whole face was never shown]], but Michael Dorn's voice was recognizable when he had a brief guest appearance as the [[Invisible President|POTUS]] on ''[[Heroes (TV series)|Heroes]]''.
** Rufus 2000 in the ''[[Kim Possible]]'' movie ''A Sitch in Time''.
** How can we forget Coldstone and Minotaur in ''[[Gargoyles (Animation)|Gargoyles]]''?
** He also played a Krogan in ''[[Mass Effect 2]]''.
*** Said [[Proud Warrior Race Guy|Krogan]] has the opportunity to be [[The Worf Effect|headbutted 3 times]].
Line 710 ⟶ 718:
 
* '''D.C. Douglas'''
** This man's fantastic voice is probably most recognizable as that of ''[[Resident Evil]]'''s ultimate [[Big Bad]], Albert Wesker. He has also shown up as Commandant Alexei in ''[[Tales of Vesperia (Video Game)|Tales of Vesperia]]'', Jazz in ''[[Eternal Sonata]]'', and Legion in ''[[Mass Effect 2 (Video Game)|Mass Effect 2]]'', not to mention numerous live TV shows and movies.
*** This troper personally cannot wait to hear Legion say that the Reapers want to ensure [[Memetic Mutation|Complete. Galactic. SATURATION.]]
** What you probably ''didn't'' realize was that he was the voiceover narration in the GEICO commercials -- notcommercials—not the CGI gecko, but the voice that says:
{{quote| "GEICO. A fifteen-minute call could save you fifteen percent or more on car insurance."}}
** He's also Grimoire Noir in ''[[Nie RNieR]]'', and sounds almost identical to the voice he uses for Wesker.
 
* '''Dom DeLuise'''
** Try out Evictus from [[The Roman Holidays]], Koosalagoopagoop from [[DextersDexter's Laboratory]], Itchy from [[All Dogs Go to Heaven]], Tiger from [[An American Tail]], Jeremy from [[The Secret of NIMH]], and many others.
 
* '''Jason Douglas'''
** Jason Douglas uses the same for voice for [[Excel Saga (Animeanime)|Il Palazzo]] as he does for [[Azumanga Daioh (Manga)|Chiyo-chan's Dad]].
 
* '''Robert Atkin Downes'''
** Robin Atkin Downes, [[No More Heroes|Travis']] VA, is practically synonymous with the US voice acting industry. Among others, you'll find him playing [[Valkyria Chronicles (Video Game)|Faldio]], [[Final Fantasy Tactics (Video Game)|Delita]], [[Uncharted|Navarro and Tenzin]] (which made me do a double take during the credits), and numerous additional voices in countless games and cartoons.
** Another one for the record: the [[Team Fortress 2 (Video Game)|Medic]]. And he has a mighty impressive IM Bd page as well.
** Three more! Garino Creale Corsione, Al Pettina the Casino Manager, and Zell Condorbrave, all antagonists in ''[[Gungrave]]: Overdose''.
** Not to mention that he was also the voice actor of [[Kingdom Hearts|a certain gambling, time-controlling Nobody]] . . .
** And also a [[Jade Empire|Lotus Assassin]] who chose a bad time to grow a conscience.
** He's also [[Halo|the Prophet of Regret]].
** Holy shit, he voiced {{spoiler|young}} Lorenzo from ''[[Haunting Ground (Video Game)|Haunting Ground]]'' and Akechi Samanosuke from [[Onimusha|Onimusha 3]]!
** While it might be a bit harder to hear, he voiced Kazuhira Miller in ''[[Metal Gear Solid Peace Walker]]''. Along with this, he was also the voice talent for one of the random voices that recruits may have.
** Though this falls more into [[Hey, It's That Guy!]], he also played the [[Wangst|infamous]] [[The Scrappy|Byron]] on ''[[Babylon 5]]''.
** Baron Zemo in ''[[The Avengers: Earth's Mightiest Heroes (Animation)|Avengers Earths Mightiest Heroes]]''.
 
* '''[[Eliza Dushku]]'''
Line 738 ⟶ 746:
** Selena Kyle in [[Batman: Year One]] and the ''DC: Showcase'' for Catwoman.
** Megan in ''Fight Night: Championship.''
** Rubi Malone in [[Wet]], a possible allusion to one of her [[Buffy the Vampire Slayer (TV)|earlier roles.]]
** Shaundi in [[Saints Row 2]].
** Yumi in the English version of ''Ryû ga gotoku.''
** [[Captain Obvious|Faith]] in [[Chaos Bleeds]].
