Description
Angelines Santana is a Mexican-born, Los Angeles-based voice actor and dubbing director with a career spanning over four decades in the entertainment industry. Her work is primarily known in the field of Spanish-language dubbing for film, television, and anime, serving Latin American audiences.
Santana began her artistic career at a very young age in Mexico City, starting with theater at three and a half years old. She transitioned into radio at age seven and was introduced to the world of dubbing at twelve, when she was invited to dub her own voice for a film she had appeared in with the Mexican comedian Capulina. This early experience sparked her passion for voice acting. She later moved to Los Angeles in 1991, where she found an established dubbing industry and continued her career.
In the realm of anime, Santana is recognized for her role as Marina in the classic series Magic Knight Rayearth, known in Spanish as Las Guerreras Mágicas. This voice work, performed in Los Angeles, is one of her most noted roles in the genre. The 1997 original video animation of Rayearth features her as Marina, alongside Ivette González as Lucy and Marcela Bordes as Anais. Her involvement with the series continued years later when she helped organize a reunion of the original cast for a special project celebrating the show's enduring popularity.
Beyond anime, Santana's career is distinguished by a wide array of prominent voice roles in major Hollywood films. She is the Spanish voice of actress Laura Dern's character, Dr. Ellie Sattler, in Jurassic Park and provided the voice for Robin Wright's character, Jenny, in Forrest Gump. Her other film credits include dubbing for King Kong and portraying Maggie Q's character, Tori Wu, in the Divergent film series. She has also voiced the lead role played by Helen Mirren in the television series 1923. In addition to on-screen work, she has narrated audiobooks, including Spanish-language versions of The Handmaid's Tale and Los Detectives Salvajes.
In recent years, Santana has expanded her role in the industry to include directing. She has directed dubbing for films such as The Last Champion.
