Michelle Yeoh

Description
Michelle Yeoh, the acclaimed Malaysian actress and Oscar winner, has established a notable career as a voice actor in animated films and series. While she is best known for her live-action roles in martial arts epics and Hollywood blockbusters, her distinctive voice has brought several animated characters to life. In the realm of voice acting, she has voiced the Soothsayer in Kung Fu Panda 2, Master Chow in Minions: The Rise of Gru, and Yuki in Paws of Fury: The Legend of Hank. One of her prominent voice roles is Airazor in the 2023 film Transformers: Rise of the Beasts. Airazor is a Maximal, a transforming robot with the ability to change into a falcon, and the character is described as an elegant, fearless warrior who serves as the heart of the Maximals. Yeoh was chosen for this role due to her strong, brave on-screen persona and her ability to convey the personality of a diligent protector. Her experience in action and science fiction films also aided her performance voicing a transforming robot. Beyond these roles, Yeoh has been cast in the voice cast for the animated film The Tigers Apprentice, and she voices a character in the animated series ARK: The Animated Series. In 2025, it was announced that she would voice a lead character in the English-language release of the Chinese animated film Ne Zha 2. Her voice acting work spans collaborations with major studios including DreamWorks Animation, Illumination, Paramount Animation, and Disney, often appearing alongside other notable actors such as Jack Black, Sandra Oh, and Henry Golding. A significant achievement is her Academy Award for Best Actress for her live-action performance in Everything Everywhere All at Once, making her the first Asian actress to win in that category. While much of her recognition comes from live-action, her role in Transformers: Rise of the Beasts placed her in a major franchise, introducing her voice to a broad audience of animation and action film fans. She continues to expand her voice acting portfolio, participating in high-profile animated projects that showcase her versatility beyond her martial arts and dramatic film work.
