Hogwarts Legacy is the latest video game installment based on the famous Harry Potter series, set in a time before the evil dark lord, Voldemort, even existed. Players will take on the role of a student at the magical school, where they can meet and befriend new characters of the series. So, if you want to learn more about the game’s voice actors, here is the confirmed cast of Hogwarts Legacy.

First on the list is the notable actor Simon Pegg, who voices the headmaster of Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry.

Pegg has also done voice work in past projects, like Star Wars: Battlefront and the Ice Age franchise.
During a behind-the-scenes look at Phineas Black, Pegg mentioned that his character is “the least popular headmaster in the history of Hogwarts” due to his pompous behavior.
