Itaru Yamamoto
Itaru Yamamoto (山本 格, Yamamoto, Itaru) (born October 4, ????) is a retired Japanese voice actor known for roles such as Gien Lu in the The Legend of Heroes franchise, Madmole on Fairy Tail: 100 Years Quest, Genbu on Dr. Stone and also dubbed Jimmy Logan in Logan Lucky, Viktor Drago in Creed 2, Tucker in the Insidious franchise, Don Carlos Madrigal on From Dusk till Dawn: The Series and numerous characters on Game of Thrones.
On September 22, 2024 right during the opening weekend of Transformers: One's Japanese theatrical release, it was announced by Yamamoto's talent agency I'm Enterprise that they had terminated his contract with him over an undisclosed serious breach of contract that happened one week prior on September 14. Yamamoto was thrust into a sudden early retirement and his role as Soundwave in Transformers: One would be later redubbed over for future releases of One's Japanese dub with Yōji Ueda.
