Clancy Brown

Clancy Brown has commanded my attention for decades, and his presence is unmistakable. At 191 centimeters and a Northwestern graduate, he has owned villainous and authoritative roles since the 1980s; his Kurgan in Highlander alone secured his legend. But what truly impresses me is his voice work, where that deep, resonant instrument has captivated audiences young and old across animation. There is something delightful in how an actor so often cast as the menace is so warmly beloved by fans. Combine that with his relentless, unbroken work ethic and I find him genuinely, enduringly cool.
