I like Phil Harris in animated movies.


Phil Harris's voice takes me back to my childhood. My just turned 4 year old is obsessed with Disney's Robin Hood, which has been a nice change from PJ Mask and Paw Patrol

Not really an actor but I'll submit David Attenborough.

Also, one of the first names that came to mind for me was Patrick Stewart.

If “voices” (plural) count, Mel Blanc.

Mel Blanc, Adam West, Frank Oz, and Kristen Schaal are hall of famers.

My personal favorite voice is Ving Rhames.

I'd put all of those up with the obvious James Earl Jones and Morgan Freeman.

Shoutout to one of the longest running jobs in voice acting, Casey Kasem for Shaggy.

Yeah but Gottfried's is a schtick. It's not his real voice

William Powell. Such enunciation, yet so debonair.

Don Adams copied and wound up parodying Powell's clipped voice as Maxwell Smart, Agent 86 for CONTROL.

Not an actor, but was on television.

Didn’t read the thread.

Just answering the OP’s question.

Robert Mitchum had the best voice ever. Orson Welles would be my runner-up.
