“Chris Rock. His voice is immediately recognizable. As Marty on Madagascar and Everybody Hates Chris,” one stated. Another joked, “I don’t know. Michael Scott does a pretty good impersonation.”

3. John Goodman

“John Goodman. Easily one of my favorite actors. He was so good in Cloverfield Lane and The Big Lebowski,” replied one. Another shared, “We watched Emperor’s New Groove this past weekend, and when Pacha started speaking, the room goes, “Oh, John Goodman!”

4. Patrick Warburton

Patrick Warburton. Someone asked, “You mean the voice actor for Kronk? The voice actor specifically chosen to play Kronk? Kronk’s voice actor?” Another replied, “I always hear David Puddy from Seinfeld. You stole my Jesus fish, didn’t you?”

5. J.K. Simmons

“J.K. Simmons, aka J Jonah “Omni-Man” Jameson himself,” one shared. Another confessed, “I watched the entire series of Legend of Korra without realizing he was Tenzin.”

“In his other roles, Simmons speaks in an immediately recognizable fashion, Like Omni-Man or Cave Johnson. With Tenzin, he has that same tonality but different speech mannerisms, and I had no clue. That’s top-class acting.”

6. Gilbert Gottfried

“Gilbert Gottfried. That one is almost unfair,” replied one. “He’s one of those guys whose face you can hear,” another added. Finally, a third suggested, “His podcast is excellent, and he was great reading 50 Shades of Grey.”

7. Alan Rickman

Someone replied, “I can’t believe nobody’s said Christopher Walken yet!” Another joked, “Or, as Christopher Walken would say- Wow! I can’t believe — I forgot — about him — either.” Finally, a third person admitted, “I hear him reading Green Eggs and Ham in my head,” before another ended, “I gotta fevah…. And the only cure is more cowbell!”

James Earl Jones came in as the second most recognizable voice. “I was re-watching The Lion King recently, and when he said, “My son,” I instantly heard Darth Vader breathing,” someone stated.

10. Morgan Freeman
