Sendhil Ramamurthy
Description
Sendhil Ramamurthy is an American actor whose voice work in animation includes several notable roles, though he is perhaps best known for his extensive live-action performances on television. In the realm of anime and western animation, he has contributed to several popular series. He is set to appear in the live-action adaptation of One Piece as Nefertari Cobra, the king of the Arabasta Kingdom, in the series One Piece: Into the Grand Line, though this is a live-action role rather than a voice acting part for an anime.
Ramamurthy has built a respectable resume in animation voice-over work. He voiced the character Saundor, an archfey, in the second season of the adult animated fantasy series The Legend of Vox Machina. His voice acting credits also include multiple roles in the animated series Cleopatra in Space, where he voiced the characters Khensu, King Ptolemy, and Vflurf. He further showcased his range in the Netflix animated series Jurassic World: Chaos Theory, providing the voices for Professor Chuck Desai and Dr. Samuelson. His other animation voice credits include a guest appearance on the series We Baby Bears and an early role on the long-running animated comedy Family Guy, in which he voiced an Indian Man.
Before pursuing acting, Ramamurthy initially planned to become a physician, following in the footsteps of his parents and sister. He discovered his passion for acting while in college and subsequently trained at the Webber Douglas Academy of Dramatic Art in London. Throughout his career, he has made a conscious decision to avoid auditioning for stereotypical Indian roles.
A recurring collaboration of note is his work with voice actor and director Sam Riegel, who served as the voice director for the series DC Super Hero Girls, in which Ramamurthy voiced the character Ra's al Ghul. His performance in The Legend of Vox Machina is part of a series that has received positive critical reception.
