"Ah, crap-"Nolan North is an actor and voice actor from Connecticut. Although he's been in the business for a while, he's only starting to gain prominence due to his rather distinctive voice. Most of the characters he voices are average people who find themselves in really bad situations, and cope with them using a good heaping of sarcasm.
He does have range, but he still usually is asked to do the
"Drake" voice. In
Singularity, this is actually used to
throw the player off.
He also swept the
Northies
thrice!
Currently, he has a regular gig on the
Cartoon Network show
Young Justice. He also seems to be Marvel's go-to guy for voicing
Deadpool. He's one of two alliteration-named actors to play both
Green Lantern and Deadpool, the other being
Ryan Reynolds.
