Here are some of the actors and actresses behind the voices in The Lion King. Some of them you may recognize. If possible, the picture of the actor or actress is put up next to their listing. If you want to see all the characters’ pictures instead, head over to my characters page.
I provided a link for each actor/actress name to the Internet Movie DataBase’s Filmography pages. Just click on the actor’s/actress’s name to get to the filmography page. ***Links are currently broken. I will be fixing these ASAP***
(Webmaster note: On the previous site location, this page was split into three separate pages. However, it tended to be duplicated on those multiple pages. For the new site, I will be consolidating it only this one page. In light of that, the list will start with TLK and work it’s way through the sequels. Characters will be lumped together, so if a voice actor changed in a sequel, it will stay below the other actor/actresses name.)
***Note: I will be updating this page as soon as possible with better pictures, a better layout, and voice actors from the live action movie, and The Lion Guard***
