8Lynda Carter
Magnolia In Fallout 4
Most well-known for her role as Wonder Woman in the 1975 TV series of the same name, Bethesda was clearly big fans of Carter’s work, hence her voice credits inThe Elder Scrollsseries. Yet, in theFalloutgames, she can be found inFallout4’s Good Neighbor, where she provided the voice talent for Magnolia, a singer found at The Third Rail.

7Keith David
Decker In Fallout
The iconic presence of Keith David is always a joy. Whether it’s in front of the camera in movies likeThe ThingandThey Live, or behind it as the commanding and booming voice ofHalo’s Arbiter and the titular character of Spawn. Keith David has an easily identifiable voice, and it can be heard in the originalFallout, where he plays a crime boss known as Decker.
Decker can be found in the Hub, leading the Underground with his commanding presence. Whilst visually, Decker doesn’t look like anything special, his intimidating voice and dialogue prove that he’s a character that only Keith David could command.
6Danny Trejo
Raul Tejada In Fallout: New Vegas
Danny Trejo is a famous name and face that has appeared all over movies and TV. In fact, this whole entry could be about the famous credits to Danny Trejo’s name, like Machete Cortez fromMachete, and Razor Charlie inFrom Dusk Till Dawn. Yet, hisFalloutrole saw himenter the Mojave WastelandinFallout: New Vegasas Raul Tejada.
Raul was a ghoulmechanic who could be found in the Mojave Wasteland, and luckily for everyone, he could be hired as a companion. The fact that players could roam the Mojave Wasteland as a former gunslinger played by Danny Trejo brought much joy to the game, even if the character himself has lived a hard beaten-down life.
5Jim Cummings
The Voice Of The Master In Fallout And Other NPCs In Fallout 4
What childhood would be complete without the voice of Jim Cummings playing on their TV? Whether it’s as Pete from theMickey Mouseseries, or as Winnie the Pooh, Jim Cummings has voice credits practically everywhere, and that includesFalloutandFallout4, in which he played a variety of characters. Some of these characters have names, whereas others are more random, but fans of Jim Cummings’ work can definitely hear him within these characters.
The most notable of the many characters played by Jim Cummings has to be one of the voices forFallout’s Master. The Master is an important character to this day, as it was through his experiments that the Super Mutants were born. His creation of a new mutant species would go on to torment the wastelands years after his death.
4Clancy Brown
Rhombus In Fallout
An actor with an incredible presence on-screen and with his voice, Clancy Brown is well-known for such roles as Mr. Krabs inSpongeBob SquarePantsand Captain Byron Hadley inThe Shawshank Redemption. Clancy Brown has a brilliant voice that is always easy to identify, and those seeking it can look to the originalFalloutgame, where he played Rhombus.
Rhombus was one of the leading paladins and knights of the Brotherhood of Steel’s Lost Hills chapter, and what a voice to bring to the table he had. Clancy Brown is the perfect commanding voice for an army person of high status, asking for respect without demanding it for a character that shows stoicism and responsibility for the Brotherhood of Steel’s leading roles.
3Zachary Levi
Arcade Gannon In Fallout: New Vegas
Some may recognize Zachary Levi for his on-screen portrayal as the adult Billy Batson superhero, Shazam, in the titular movie from the DC Extended Universe. Yet, before that day came, Zachary Levi was the voice of a character inFallout: New Vegas. This character in particular was Arcade Gannon, a scientist that can be found with theFollowers of the Apocalypsein the Mojave Wasteland.
Arcade is a fun character to be around, and whilst he may proclaim humbly that he is boring and antisocial, his dialogue often disproves that through his witty banter, heightened through Zachary Levi’s voice. For those who want Shazam as an ally, Arcade can even be recruited as a companion.
2Malcolm McDowell
John Henry Eden In Fallout 3
It’s hard to fail to recognize the voice of Malcolm McDowell, a respectable actor who played the sinister Alex inA Clockwork Orange, and Dr. Tolian Soran inStar Trek: Generations. Yet, Malcolm McDowell has taken on a few credits for his voice work over the years, with one of the most notable, yet under-the-radar, being that of John Henry Eden inFallout3.
Players might instantly recognize his voice, which booms with an affable nature. The politeness and stature of his voice work perfectly for John Henry Eden, who acts as the President of the Enclave and can be heard across the radio wavesthrough the Capitol Wasteland.
1Chris Parnell
Overseer Benjamin In Amazon’s Fallout
Chris Parnell has a brilliantly recognizable voice, more notably for its casting of cowardly characters like Cyril Figgs inArcherand Jerry Smith inRick and Morty. Yet, it’s no surprise that fans might not have recognized Chris Parnell in theFalloutTV series. After all, it’s hard to see someone for who they are when they have a single eye in the center of their face.
Chris Parnell has had notable credits in a few comedic roles, but to those more aware of his performance as the comedic cowardice and troubled Jerry Smith, it might come as a surprise to see him physically as Overseer Benjamin. Benjamin is the Overseer of Vault4who tries to make everyone happy and comfortable, and his politeness comes before his prejudice against surface dwellers.
