Who dubs Hollywood actors in Russian

Russian film dubbing has its regular voices: a viewer can recognise the same actor behind a star from film to film. Here is who is known for which star. A film may still use someone else, so check its credits.

Brad Pitt, Tom Cruise and Keanu Reeves

Vsevolod Kuznetsov is the actor usually invited to dub these three. He also voices Geralt in the Russian versions of The Witcher 2 and The Witcher 3. In Inglourious Basterds, Brad Pitt speaks with the voice of Vladimir Zaitsev.

Leonardo DiCaprio and Johnny Depp

Sergey Burunov has often dubbed Leonardo DiCaprio, Johnny Depp and Adam Sandler.

Robert Downey Jr. and Jason Statham

Vladimir Zaitsev has voiced characters played by Robert Downey Jr., Jason Statham and Heath Ledger, including Ledger’s Joker in The Dark Knight.

Vin Diesel and Scarlett Johansson

Sergey Chonishvili voices Vin Diesel as Dominic Toretto in Fast & Furious parts 4 to 9 and as Riddick. Tatyana Shitova dubs Scarlett Johansson’s heroines in Russian; she is also the living prototype of the Yandex Alice voice.

Voice your own text like a film

For a film-style reading, open the narrator and announcer voices in the catalog and test a line of 30 to 100 characters free on a voice’s page. For a whole script, install the free engine with python -m pip install superclonica-cpu and run: superclonica --text-file text.txt --voice M1 --lang ru --output voice.wav. The first run downloads the model once, about 400 MB; after that it works offline on an ordinary processor.

Respect the people behind the voices

SuperClonica is not connected with these actors. Character voices in our catalog are fan-made and do not belong to them. Do not present generated speech as the words of a real actor.
