JOHN DIMAGGIO THE VOICE OF AQUAMAN AND GORILLA GRODD!

Posted by Unknown Friday 19 June 2009

Newsarama have an interview with voice action John DiMaggio who has plays the role of Aquaman on Batman: The Brave and the Bold and also plays Gorilla Grodd, who is making an appearance on next tonight's episode of Batman titled "The Last Bat on Earth".

“It was kind of both at the same time,” he admits. “The voice director of the show, Andrea Romano, has won multiple Emmys for her work. I’ve worked with her bunch of times and she’s just wonderful. At first, I auditioned to be Batman. They said I did fine. Then I find out I didn’t get it. So I asked who did, and she told me Diedrich Bader. Now, that’s great! He’s perfect for the role.

"Then they said they wanted me to be Aquaman, the guy who controls the whales,” and DiMaggio starts doing a dead on imitation of the psychic noises Arthur has made since his Filmation days. “The King of Atlantis and all the oceans!” he shouts. “I was actually quite shocked. Then when we went in and they explained to me what kind of tone the show would have, that it wouldn’t be as dark, I realized that it would a fun take to do. I was all over it.”

Then DiMaggio switches gears, his enthusiasm starting to build like a runaway train.

“I think I did Grodd before I even did Aquaman,” he says. “That was the episode where he was up against Plastic Man and turned everyone into big monkeys, even Batman. Now I’m not quite as familiar with Grodd as I am with other DC characters. The good thing, Andrea was. She said this is the way I wanted to play it. When I got that we just dived in and I just hit it. That character is so much fun. She’s one of the main reasons I’m involved in the show anyway. She brought me in.
