Characters he Voiced in Samurai Jack[]

Trivia[]

  • There has been a long time false myth of him having been taught by Mako himself. In reality, Baldwin actually became Mako's successor by audition.
  • Before he was cast to voice Aku for Season 5, he previously voiced him in FusionFall.
  • While recording Aku's lines for Season 5, Baldwin got the opportunity to meet Mako's daughter and grandson.
  • The only time he didn‘t voice Aku was in Cartoon Network: Punch Time Explosion. Instead, the character was voiced by Fred Tatasciore.
  • Prior to voicing Aku, Baldwin first succeeded Mako in the role of General Iroh for Avatar: The Last Airbender. He began by voicing the character for brief portions in three episodes of the 2nd season, his recordings being mixed in with Mako's while his name was credited under additional voices. And he would later take on the role full-time for the series's third season, various video games and the second & third season of The Legend of Korra.
  • In the same year that Avatar's third season was in production, Baldwin also filled in for Mako as Master Splinter for TMNT. And just like in the second season, his recordings were mixed in with Mako's and he was credited under additional voices.
