Also, Admiral Shala'Raan vas Tonbay, leader of the quarian people in the Mass Effect games.

I just finished watching The Expanse, and I was looking up information to soothe the grief.

She has a voice and accent like no other.

Only voice I’ve ever heard that was anywhere near as distinct is Kathleen Turner, who is still not nearly as distinct as her.

Clancy Brown as well for me, I can usually tell it's his voice over work only 2 or 3 words into the first sentence.

Ellen Thomas who voices Ambessa Medarda in Arcane is also up there.

I started reading the expanse recently and holy crap her voice is exactly the way avasarala sounds in my head

[–] Kyle_The_G@lemmy.world 8 points 7 months ago

I think she's in mass effect and the penguin too. Every time I hear that voice/see her I'm like OH ITS YOU!!! so distinct.

[–] emmanuel_car@fedia.io 5 points 7 months ago

I love hearing her and other distinct voices pop up unexpectedly.

She was also the FBI agent(Madani)'s mom on Punisher on Netflix, which I love anything marvel so there's that. She also is the voice of Bayek' mentor in Assassins Creed Mirage and Valhalla.

Okay, and did you know someone else played a different character in a different franchise? We should have a single post for every cast member for every production from here on in.

Did you know that Alan Tudyk played the chicken in Moana?

No, I didn't know that! I thought it was some kind of honor for comedian to only play one character in their whole career. Thank you for your valuable contribution.
