"I love animation! In the world of animation, you can be anything you wanna be! If you're a fat woman, you can play a skinny princess! If you're a short, wimpy guy, you can play a tall gladiator! If you're a white man, you can play an Arabian prince! If you're a black man, you play a donkey or a zebra! And if you're a Filipino-Canadian, you can play Chris Rock!"
— Bauza mocking Rock's rant on voice acting being an easy job

Eric Adrian Bauza (born December 7, 1979 in Toronto, Ontario) is a Filipino-Canadian-American animator-turned-voice actor and stand-up comedian who, despite being a bit newer to the biz next to his contemporaries, has made quite the presence as of late.

He got his start as a character designer and layout artist at various studios, including working on both the The Brave Little Toaster sequels and The Ripping Friends, which acquainted him with the animation world, and he would soon get his first big role on the short lived Ren & Stimpy "Adult Party Cartoon" as the new voice of the titular Stimpy, after the original voice actor (Billy West) vowed never to work with John Kricfalusi ever again due to his Small Name, Big Ego attitude.

Over the past decade since, he has built up a considerable resume that includes roles in The Fairly OddParents!, El Tigre: The Adventures of Manny Rivera, Ben 10: Omniverse, Uncle Grandpa, and Breadwinners. His versatility has also led him to be picked as the new voice of Marvin the Martian (formerly voiced by Mel Blanc) in The Looney Tunes Show and Fenton Crackshell/Gizmoduck (formerly voiced by Hamilton Camp) in DuckTales Remastered. He is one of the current voices of Bugs Bunny, Daffy Duck, and Tweety Bird as well.

He can also be found on more adult-oriented fare, including several Channel 101 shorts.

He is the host of his own docu-series Stay Tooned.

Notable roles include:

Tropes relating to Eric Bauza and his work.

  • Canada, Eh?: Bauza averts this trope for the most part but makes the usual Canada joke.
    Bauza, in Donald Trumps voice: These Canadians, they climb over the wall with poutine!
  • Man of a Thousand Voices: Similar to his other Looney Tunes co-stars, Eric has voice every Looney Tunes character at one point. He even voiced Penelope and Granny for Looney Tunes: World of Mayhem. Bauza cites Mel Blanc as the reason he wanted to do voice acting.
    Bauza: I may never be able to replace Mel Blanc, I'm just very lucky to have a fraction of his talent.
  • Nice Guy: Not because he's Canadian, which Eric jokes about a lot in interviews. At conventions, Eric gives voice acting advice to younger kids and gives them free artwork of Bugs Bunny.
  • Word of Saint Paul: Bauza joked in a interview with NPR that Marvin the Martian celebrates Thanksgiving in August, as that is the month Martians have their Thanksgiving.
