The Warcraft universe has seen its fair share of talented voice actors and accomplished actors in film and television. Countless famous faces from other fan-favorite series have taken on anything from minor NPCs to more important narrative roles. These are but a few of the recognizable ones you’ll hear in WoW.

12Troy Baker

With the seemingly infinite stellar performancesTroy Baker has under his belt, it’s not a shock you can catch him in World of Warcraft. Here he portrays the fire mage Magister Krelas andthe villainous warlock orc Gul’dan, introduced in the Warlords of Draenor and Legion expansions.

In theDCuniverse, not only has he done the voice of Joker in various Batman-related works, but he was also the titular caped crusader in Telltale’s Batman games. Other notable villain roles are Higgs Monaghan inDeath StrandingandFar Cry4’s Pagan Min. But he’s also played plenty of memorable heroic protagonists, like Joel Miller inThe Last of Us, Talion in theMiddle-earthseries, and Nathan Drake’s older brother Sam inUncharted 4.

11Laura Bailey

A fellow Naughty Dog alum in the Warcraft universe is Laura Bailey, who plays the well-established Jaina Proudmoore through the various expansions. Apart from voicing the most infamous mage Azeroth has to offer, she also appears as more minor characters, such as Argent Dawnbringer and Sif. But her voice extends far beyond Blizzard.

But Uncharted’s Nathan Drake isn’t the only iconic video game character Nolan North voices. If you’re a fan of theAssassin’s Creedseries, you may know him as lead protagonist Desmond Miles. And he’s the voice actor forDeadpoolin Marvel games, which includes the 2013 title and theMidnight SunsDLC.

He voices a human apprentice named Marten Webb, training to become an alchemist. It even sounds like a callback to his training as a maester in the Citadel. Bradley also appeared in the sci-fi disaster film Moonfall and as Giovanni de Medici in the Tom Fontana Borgia TV show.

That deep, booming voice of his playing the characters Gorak Tul, Akunda, and Sunwalker Ordel in the Battle for Azeroth expansion will be instantly recognizable, as Christopher Judge provides the voice of Kratos in the Norse saga ofGod of War.
