Jérémie Covillault (born March 13, 1976 in Paris) is a French actor and voice actor.
He is the main French dubbing voice for Tom Hardy (since The Dark Knight Rises, including Venom), Benedict Cumberbatch (such as in The Hobbit, and including Doctor Strange in the Marvel Cinematic Universe) and Joel Edgerton.
He's also dubbed Jeffrey Dean Morgan (Negan Smith in the Walking Dead television universe most notably), Javier Bardem (shared with Frédéric van den Driessche), Jai Courtney, Jon Hamm, Andy Serkis, Hugh Jackman (including Wolverine in Logan) and Ed Skrein several times.
Tropes & Trivia about his roles:
- Acting for Two:
- Voiced both roles of Benedict Cumberbatch in The Hobbit, that is, the dragon Smaug and the Necromancer (Sauron in disguise).
- Dubbed both Doctor Stephen Strange and Venom in Spider-Man: No Way Home.
- Evil Sounds Deep: A good chunk of the villains he's dubbed, including Bane in The Dark Knight Rises, Smaug in The Hobbit and the Old God N'Zoth in World of Warcraft: Battle for Azeroth, have a spine-chillingly deep voice that he can perfectly pull off.
- The Other Darrin: Something of a habit for him.
- Replaced Philippe Dumond as 47 in Hitman: Absolution.
- Replaced Benoît Allemane as Caesar in the modern Planet of the Apes films starting with Dawn of the Planet of the Apes.
- Replaced Michel Vigné as Sauron in The Hobbit after The Lord of the Rings.
- Replaced Boris Rehlinger as Frank Martin in the fourth film of The Transporter series to accomodate the change in actors from Jason Statham to Ed Skrein.
