Mark Moseley is an American voice actor, radio personality, stand-up comedian, and singer-songwriter. He has appeared in a variety of films, television shows, and video games. He is best known as a voice double for actors such as Eddie Murphy, Patrick Stewart, Arnold Schwarzenegger, Patrick Warburton, and Robin Williams.[2]

Career

Moseley has also played

The PJ's, Jimmy Kimmel Live!, My Life as a Teenage Robot, Father of the Pride, House of Mouse
, and others.

In God of War III, Moseley voiced the character King Minos. In Night at the Museum: Battle of the Smithsonian video game, Moseley played the role of Theodore Roosevelt, as portrayed in the movie by Robin Williams. For Star Wars: The Old Republic, he plays eight roles in the game.

In 2007, Moseley was chosen for the voice of President Schwarzenegger in The Simpsons Movie. The producers had toyed with the idea of having the Schwarzenegger voice sound realistic (Moseley is known for his authentic-sounding impression of Schwarzenegger), as opposed to a parody. In the end, they used the original cast member Harry Shearer, who performs the Schwarzenegger parody 'Ranier Wolfcastle' in the TV series, in the US theatrical and DVD version of the film, though English-speaking Simpson fans around the world can hear Moseley's version, as producers decided to use his portrayal of Schwarzenegger in the Simpson's International English version of the movie.[3]

In 2015, Moseley was cast in the re-occurring role of Agamemnon, in DreamWorks Animation's series The Mr. Peabody & Sherman Show, a role originally played in the 2014 film Mr. Peabody & Sherman by Patrick Warburton.

Previously in his career, he was a morning personality for Miami's leading pop station, WPOW Power 96, from 1986 through 2002, and again from 2005-2007 (he performed remotely from his home in Los Angeles). While at WPOW in 1986, Moseley created the novelty hit song "Ronnie's Rapp", under the name "Ron And The DC Crew".[4] Originally created as a comedy sketch for his morning show, the song was distributed by Profile Records, and became a club hit in 1986, reaching number 93 on the Billboard Hot 100.[5]

In 2009, Moseley worked with his long-time idol Rick Dees, as a member of Dees' morning radio cast on Los Angeles' KHHT, as well as being a cast member and writer for his Rick Dees Weekly Top 40.

Beginning in January 1998, Moseley reunited with his own radio friend DJ Laz to be a part of Laz's morning radio show in LA on KXOL-FM, and in Miami on WRMA.

In 2014, Moseley joined

Dash Radio
, the world's largest all original digital radio network. At Dash, Moseley is Director of Classic Programming, curating 17 of Dash Radio's music stations. He also provides the imaging voices for all of the stations he programs, as well as hosting and producing multiple shows on various Dash stations.

Moseley was also hired by DJ Skee to be the voice-over announcer for his music entertainment show SKEE TV, currently airing on the Fuse network.[6]
