WMG / Ducktales 2017 Voice Actors

Go To

The McElroy Brothers will guest-star on an episode
Lin-Manuel is a fan of the Brothers, they've shown an interest in voice acting (with Griffin even appearing in an episode of Clarence), and Gravity Falls showed they're not against casting podcast stars in Disney shows, with Cecil Baldwin of Welcome to Night Vale fame playing a bit role in one episode. (It'd be bizarre if it did happen, considering "DuckTales" was their parents' safety word when growing up, in case of stranger danger.)
  • If the relatively few among the posts in the "honker muddlefoot" hashtag on Tumblr that speculate on it are any indication, Griffin McElroy (specifically, his voice for Angus McDonald) seems to be the most popular choice of a potential Honker reboot voice.

Karen Gillan and Peter Capaldi will guest star
Any flashback to Scrooge's youth in Scotland will feature characters voiced by fellow Scots and fellow Doctor Who alumni Karen Gillan and Peter Capaldi, for no other reason than to make the universe collapse into itself.
  • I hereby nominate Karen Gillan for the voice of Magica DeSpell.
    • Except DeSpell is an Italian name. Karen should instead voice Hortense, who is also a Fiery Redhead.
    • We do have a Doctor Who alumnus voicing Magica, but it's not Karen.
  • I nominate Capaldi as the voice of Fergus McDuck.
    • Nope, Graham McTavish.
  • If Karen Gillan is voicing Hortense Duck, then I suggest having Arthur Darvill voice Hortense's husband Quackmore Duck.

Andrew Caldwell will guest star
Webby and the boys would need other friends their age then each other. Perhaps even a best friend to Dewey like someother pair I know.
  • Doofus Drake?
    • Doofus is voiced by John Gemberling, and instead of being a friend of the triplets, he's an antagonist.

Magica De Spell will be voiced by June Foray.
  • She's almost 100, but she's still pretty damn active in the realms of voice-acting. Alternatively, they'll find a suitable impersonator like Tress MacNeille.
  • Even if Foray doesn't voice Magica, she will still get some sort of cameo.
  • Sadly Jossed. Unless it's posthumous, as Foray died on July 26, 2017.
  • It's Catherine Tate.

If April, May and June appear, who will voice them?
Leave suggestions below.
  • April Duck
    • Michaela Dietz
    • Gillian Jacobs
    • Jeannie Elias (Huey from Quack Pack)
  • May Duck
    • Jennifer Paz
    • Jenny Slate
    • Pamela Adlon (Dewey from Quack Pack)
  • June Duck
    • Shelby Rabara
    • Cameron Esposito
    • Elizabeth "E.G" Daily (Louie from Quack Pack)
  • A same person for all of them.
  • Jessica DiCicco voices all three of them on Legend of the Three Caballeros . She could either voice all three of them here, or they will get individual voice actors.
  • The above guesses are all Jossed for May and June; they will be played by Riki Lindhome and Noël Wells, respectively, in the series finale. As for April, it turns out that she's actually Webby, and thus voiced by Kate Micucci .

Who will voice Fethry Duck and John D. Rockerduck when they make their debuts?
  • Tom Kenny is Fethry, while Rockerduck's VA is John Hodgman.

Jack McBrayer will voice at least one of these characters
  • Dijion - He sounds like he could imitate the character's original voice or come close to it.
  • Bubba the Caveduck - Perhaps Gyro will invent a device to make his speech intelligible (like Donald in "The Shadow War") and it will make him sound just like Jack.
  • Gene the genie - He could pull off a comical little genie as easily as he did a comical little alien.
  • An entirely new character
    • Confirmed. He's the Ghost Of Christmas Past.

Merlock's voice actor
Similar to Magica, Merlock as one of the darker villains will be remodeled to look more fearsome than ever. I envision him having a deep and intimidating voice, possibly portrayed by Kevin Michael Richardson.

Gosalyn's voice actress
In regards to who would voice this show's version of Gosalyn Mallard, I'd recomend Stephanie Lemelin. She has the experience voicing tomboy characters, and after hearing her as Audrey on Harvey Street Kids, I think she'd be an ideal voice for Gos.
  • Gossalyn's new design seems like a color swapped, duck version of Ivy. It's very likely.
    • Which Ivy?
  • I think Letitia Wright would be a good choice as well since Gosalyn's relationship with Drake does remind this troper of T'Challa and Shuri.
  • Word of God seems to be deliberately trolling on this point, which probably means it's either a very recognizable name or Stunt Casting. My guess is Riki Lindhome, but it's a shot in the dark.
  • I think it might be Kylie Cantrall, for two reasons:
  • One of the voice actors confirmed to play a character in season 3 is Stephanie Beatriz, who is of Argentine-American Descent. If she's not the one who will portray Gosalyn, I don't know who will.
    • Confirmed, meaning all other guesses are jossed. Stephanie Beatriz is playing Gosalyn.

Taurus Bulba will be voiced by an actor of Russian descent
Taurus Bulba is named after a Cossack character from a book by a Russian writer, and Tim Curry used a faux-Russian accent for the character. Since the creators use Actor-Shared Background whenever possible, they'll hire a Russian actor for the role (although if no Russians are available, they might opt for someone from another Slavic country). Vladimir Mashkov is one option.
  • Jossed. Bulba is played by the non-Russian James Monroe Iglehart, and he does not have a Russian accent.

Monterey Jack will be voiced by an Australian actor
If the creators use Actor-Shared Background with Monterey Jack as they do with other characters on the show, Monty's voice actor will be Australian just like he is, or at the very least Australian-sounding. Candidates for his VA could be either Barry Humphries or Rhys Darby.
  • Jossed. Monterey Jack's appearance is limited to a non-speaking cameo.

If Jim Cummings is not brought back to reprise Fat Cat, then Fat Cat's new VA could be Wayne Knight
Knight has experience playing unfriendly felines due to his work on Catscratch, and his voice does sound quite similar to Fat Cat's vocal patterns in the original show.

Riki Lindhome will play a character in Season 3.
Because it would be great to see a Garfunkel and Oates reunion with Webby.
  • One option is Gosalyn, as suggested above (although it is more likely that they'd pick a Latina actress for Gosalyn).
    • Jossed, Gosalyin is voiced by Stephanie Beatriz.
  • Another option is Gadget Hackwrench. She definitely looks the part.
    • Jossed for Season 3. Gadget's appearance is limited to a non-speaking cameo in Season 3. But if Gadget ever gets any dialogue, Lindhome is an option.
  • Confirmed! She will play May, one of Daisy's nieces, in the series finale.

If Poe De Spell appears, he'll be voiced by John Oliver
Though the series takes many cues from the original, it's currently up in the air whether or not Magica's brother exists or wherever he may be (likely stuck in the form of a raven). If that's the case, it would be ironic for John Oliver to voice him, since he played another talking bird for Disney. Also a lot of his former co-stars from Community have found a home on this series. Given John's classy British accent and his Deadpan Snarker and Large Ham roles, it would be interesting to see how he could apply this in a De Spell.

With Bebe Neuwirth set to play a role in season 3, the character she will play (if not someone entirely new) will be either Sylvia Marpole or Mirage
Sylvia is best known to fans of Animation as Goofy's love interest in An Extremely Goofy Movie, so if Neuwirth is coming back to voice her, then her appearance alongside Goofy will probably take place sometime after the events of the film she debuted in with Goofy having gotten his degree and Max still being in college.
  • Alternately, if she's coming back to reprise her role as Mirage, then Mirage will be no different than how she was in the show she debuted in barring the fact that she's in a world full of Funny Animals instead of Humans.
  • Jossed as of now since she actually plays Emma Glamour, Mark Beaks' mother, in Louie's Eleven.

Gene the Genie, will be voiced by Jaleel White.
This time around, he's shown to have a darker complexion this time around, and the show likes to cast its characters, with actors of the same ethnicity. Not to mention, being a comedian much like Rip Taylor, would make him an ideal alternative.
  • Confirmed.

If Mickey Mouse ever appears, he'll be voiced by Bret Iwan
I'm not sure this would happen. Francisco Angones has mentioned how he's a big fan of Mickey Mouse (2013) , where he's voiced by Chris Diamantopolous . He based Storkules' personality on that interpretation of the character, and got Chris to voice him. Plus, in "Moonvasion" , one of the characters he voices is a Lawyer-Friendly Cameo version of him. If he ever does appear in this series in the flesh, he'll most likely voice him.
