Péter Szokol (October 28, 1960 -) is a Hungarian actor and voice actor, famous for his youthful-sounding, shrill voice that had made him a staple of cartoon dubs for decades, often voicing comic relief characters, kids, talking animals, and performing vocalizations for all sorts of critters. A comprehensive list of roles would stretch for miles.
Some of his more major animated roles are Philip J. Fry of Futurama, Randy Marsh in South Park (all but the first few seasons), all versions of Trunks in the Dragon Ball franchise, Slimer in The Real Ghostbusters and Extreme Ghostbusters, the Scarecrow in both dubs of Batman: The Animated Series, Wheeler in the 2nd dub of Captain Planet, Dino in the 2nd dub of The Flintstones, and Meowth in most parts of the Pokémon anime. Outside of animation, he claims to have been pigeonholed as the go-to voice actor for "black people, midgets, transvestites and parrots". He also does lots of documentary, reality or infomercial voice-overs, and had a dubious early career dubbing pornography.
Voice roles
[edit]- Prowl (2nd dub)
- Superion Maximus (2nd dub)
- Jolt (2nd dub)
- Bumblebee
- Bumblebee
- Swindle (in the episode Prime Time)
Notes
[edit]- If the dubbing cast sheet is to be trusted, he was supposed to play Frenzy in the rather cheaply produced dub of the first live-action movie, but the character's handful of intelligible lines have been left in English or in some cases outright cut. The dub had plenty of other errors too, so it is possible, if unlikely, that his lines were recorded and somehow omitted. It's equally possible that the cast list was just wrong.
