Episode 222: Bill Newton

Bill Newton’s filmography is chock-full of voice performances that are exciting, adventurous, daring, and damn funny. Bill has voiced everyone’s favourite God of Mischief Loki in multiple marvel projects, including Lego Marvel Adventures and Marvel Battleworld: Treachery at Twilight. He was nominated for a 2021 UBCP/ACTRA Award for voicing the dude-bro ogre BrainFreeze in Monster Beach (a performance he based in part on Keanu Reeves). He’s turned in an array of witty, wacky, and wonderful performances in My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic, Ninjago, and Beyblade. And earlier this year, Bill went viral with his dramatic readings of Peggy Blair’s “Dear Martha” tweets, which captured the absurdity of the Ottawa Occupation. In this rollicking conversation with Sabrina Rani Furminger, Bill talks about navigating the voice acting world with an Australian accent, his passion for everything old, becoming Loki, and his experience going viral.
