Keith David has appeared in no shortage of live action films, from The Thing and Platoon to The Chronicles of Riddick and Cloud Atlas. However, he’s arguably more iconic for the various animated and video game projects he’s lent his famously resonant voice to — including the likes of Mass Effect, Princess Mononoke, Coraline, Adventure Time, Rick and Morty, and even Dissidia Final Fantasy.
