Scott McNeil is an Australian actor based in Canada, known for his live-action work as well as his roles in animation. His voice roles include Ace the Bat-Hound in Krypto the Superdog, Voltar in League of Super Evil, Jetfire, Backstop, Strongarm, Snarl and Omega Surpreme in The Unicron Trilogy, Rattrap, Waspinator, Silverbolt and Dinobot in Beast Wars: Transformers and Beast Machines: Transformers, Hack in ReBoot, Wolverine in X-Men: Evolution, Duo Maxwell in Mobile Suit Gundam Wing, Kōga in Inuyasha, and the Hohenheim of Light in Fullmetal Alchemist.

Early life

McNeil was born in Australia, and moved to Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada, when he was four years old. He first appeared on stage at the age of three.
McNeil first learned that people were paid to do different voices after a trip to Disneyland when he was twelve, when he learned that Paul Frees, who provided the voice greeting visitors to the Haunted Mansion, was also the voice of the Pillsbury Doughboy.
McNeil later pursued theatre, studying at Studio 58 before leaving to find acting jobs, working as an Elvis impersonator for some time. He began a career in voice acting in the late 1980s; a casting director at the time told McNeil that he wished he had met him a week before, when he was casting for G.I. Joe: A Real American Hero.

Professional career

McNeil has stated that his first role was providing voices on The New Adventures of He-Man. His first anime role was in Project A-ko, where he provided the voices for three women.
After appearing in several films and two episodes of Highlander: The Series, he provided voices for Beast Wars as Waspinator, Dinobot, Rattrap, and Silverbolt, which he has described as the work he is most proud of. In Dragon Ball Z, he was cast as the original voice of Piccolo and various other characters before providing the voice of Duo Maxwell on Mobile Suit Gundam Wing and Principal Kuno on Ranma ½.
He was later cast as Wolverine in X-Men: Evolution, a role which he voiced for four seasons from 2000 to 2003. McNeil was then cast in Inuyasha as Kōga, also providing the voice of Hohenheim of Light in Fullmetal Alchemist, Foghorn Leghorn in Baby Looney Tunes, Grumpy Bear in Care Bears: Adventures in Care-a-Lot, Ace the Bat-Hound and Ignatius in Krypto the Superdog, Amergan, Gregor, and the lab director in Highlander: The Search for Vengeance, and Stork in Storm Hawks. He also appears in live-action work, appearing in Scooby-Doo 2: Monsters Unleashed and The Green Chain. In October 2007, McNeil estimated that he had voiced 8,500 characters.
McNeil is appreciative of fans because he knows what it is like to see your favourite voice actor be a character. He says that he is inspired by Paul Frees, Maurice LaMarche, and Mel Blanc, and that he would "fan boy all over him" if he had the opportunity to meet Blanc.
