Ed Weigle

Character voices are not my specialty, but I've done quite a few of them! I will not entertain auditions which request that I sound like Morgan Freeman, Dennis Leary, Mike Rowe, or anyone else. However, I'm sure the agents of those actors will be happy to hear from you.

Known as the "big movie trailer-type voice" of all radio spots (which I also create and produce), heard around the world, for WWE (World Wrestling Entertainment), since 2001. Heard on tens of thousands of commercials over the past 30 years, as well as film narrations, promos and trailers. My style is diverse and my clients an eclectic blend: I am the over-the-top narrator in the beginning of the first music video from AEROSMITH in 8 years, "Legendary Child."

Have voiced theatrical trailers for Celine Dion and Beyonce and independent movies, as well as a national promos for TNT's "HawthoRNe," starring Jada Pinkett Smith, and Nickelodeon UK's "U-Pick Summer."

Narrator of four TV series-- "Adventure Bowhunter with Tom Miranda," "Whitetail Slam""Territories Wild" and "Rugged Expeditions with J. Alain Smith"-- for The Sportsman Channel, The Outdoor Channel and NBC Sports. I'm the announcer and sometimes, guest host, on syndicated radio's "The Cigar Dave Show," heard on more than 120 stations across America, Saturdays, noon to 2 eastern. Listen at www.cigardave.com.
