EP3: John DiMaggio to Voice Grievous
Fri, Mar 05, 04 01:05:39 AM EST

The SW.com Homing Beacon newsletter talked about the voice of the Clone War cartoon with a clip about Episode III's General Grievous. Here's a clip:
Tatyana Yassukovich plays Barriss Offee. She can be heard as the voice of the storyteller in 2000's Chocolat.
Andre Sogliuzzo returns to play Captain Typho. The actor also provides the voice of all the clone troopers, the ARC troopers, and the battle droids. He also provided the voice of the clones in LucasArts' Star Wars: Clone Wars video game.

Known to many fans as the voice of Bender on "Futurama," John DiMaggio not only plays a Padawan in the micro-series, but is also the menacing voice of General Grievous in the series. General Grievous is an Episode III character who makes his debut in the final episode of Star Wars: Clone Wars. Don't expect much in common between Grievous and Bender though. The General of the droid army isn't likely to invite any Jedi to bite his shiny metal posterior.

Thanks to MasterDevil for the clip! Make sure you subscribe to the free newsletter on the Official Site.

We bought our daughter a $5.88 Pippi Longstocking (south seas cartoon) DVD from WalMart some time ago. One of the characters in it has the same voice as Gollem from LOTR movies. I checked IMDB and couldn't connect the two, and the DVD has basically no credits, so, I can't be 100% certain, but, it sounds so close it's eerie...

Ah well, fun recognizing stuff like that. Even when it's scary.
