10 Most Surprising Voice Performances

Many classic animated series over the years have featured voice performances from talent famous for other endeavors. Celebrity voice actors are often criticized by fans of animated mediums, their presence being seen as a gimmick to stir up publicity. Voice acting is also a very different beast from traditional acting, and the two skills don’t always overlap as easily as one would think. Not only that, but a voice cast laden with big names often draws roles away from prominent voice actors who could have otherwise gotten the role. That said, some surprising performances avoided those issues.
