Nolan North
Nolan North may have been in plenty of games before Uncharted, but his first appearance in Drake’s Fortune is what got him the spotlight. In addition to being Assassin’s Creed’s Desmond Miles, North has also voiced the Male Hero in Fable 2, the Prince of Persia in the 2008 reboot, Deadpool in various Marvel games, Penguin in the Batman Arkham games, himself in Saints Row IV (no, really, that’s how his voice option is listed), and the Ghost in Destiny. Outside of games, he’s voiced Superman and Superboy in Young Justice and Raphael in the 2007 Ninja Turtles film.
Emily Rose

Aside from Haven and Uncharted, Rose had mostly guest roles on shows like Without a Case, Jericho, and ER while having recurring roles on USA’s Graceland and NBC’s ER.
Richard McGonagle
McGonagle is no stranger to voice acting. Besides playing Victor Sullivan in the Uncharted games, he’s voiced Bato in Avatar, multiple aliens in the Ben 10 franchise, King Endrin in Dragon Age Origins, and Carrey O’Key in Regular Show. Some old TV watchers may remember him as Bill Weckerle in the 21 Jump Street TV show.
Claudia Black
Perhaps best known for her role on Farscape as Aeryn Sun and Vala Mal Doran on Stargate SG-1, Claudia Black first joined the Uncharted cast with Among Thieves in 2009 as Drake’s other love interest Chloe Frazier. She’s been in other games like the Dragon Age franchise as Morrigan, Sam in Gears of War 3, Shadow of Mordor’s Queen Marwen, and Diablo 3’s Cydaea. Currently, she’s on The CW’s The Originals as Dahlia and on Containment as Sabine Lommers.
Billy Unger
Unger mocapped and voiced the young version of Nate in Uncharted 3: Drake’s Deception. His resume is primarily from Disney shows; aside from some guest spots on Sonny with a Chance, Kickin’ It, and ANT Farm, Unger has a main role on the Disney XD series Lab Rats as Spike.
Steve Valentine
Valentine first showed up in Naughty Dog’s treasure hunting series as Drake’s friend Harry Flynn in Uncharted 2. Most voice acting fans may know him best as Alistair in Bioware’s Dragon Age games. He primarily works in live action; he had a main role on Crossing Jordan as Nigel Townsend and has guest roles in shows like Boston Legal, Chuck, and Supernatural. You can see him in theaters right now as Barry Greenhouse in the movie The Walk.
Rosalind Ayres
Ayres most recent video game gig is Uncharted 3’s primary antagonist Katherine Marlowe, though she was in Age of Empires III. The British actress has been in films such as Titanic, The Slipper and the Rose, and Heartbeat.
Graham McTavish
Since starting video game voice acting in 2006, McTavish has had at least two games come out a year with his voice in them. Minimum. Whether you know him as Arl Eamon in Dragon Age Origins, Ben Church in Assassin’s Creed 3, or Zoran Lazarevic and Charlie Cutter in the Uncharted sequels, chances are you’ve played a game with his name in the credits. McTavish will show up in the film Creed later this year and was previously in the Hobbit film trilogy as Dwalin.
