You may better recognise Doug Cockle’s voice as Geralt of Rivia from The Witcher or Bhaal from Baldur’s Gate 3.
In this interview, we sit down with the Witcher himself to discuss his voice-acting methodology, building a home studio, and the different versions of Geralt.
About Doug Cockle
Doug Cockle is the voice actor behind the iconic video game character Geralt of Rivia from The Witcher series. He was nominated for ‘Best Performer’ at the BAFTA Games Awards and is a professional actor with decades of experience.
His career includes roles in live-action and behind the microphone, so we sat down with him to learn more about his life journey, advice, and what it’s like to be the man behind The Witcher.
Sitting down with Doug was a fantastic way to gain insight into his unique personality and learn more about his acting philosophy, interests and experience as one of gaming’s most recognisable characters.
Thanks for joining us, Doug! It was very interesting to learn about Geralt’s emotional development and the differences between voice acting and live-action projects.
