Solo Leveling, Attack on Titan voice actors, Avatar and Blue Beetle stars join ‘stacked’ Sakamoto Days anime dub cast
Sakamoto Days anime's English dub's star-studded voice cast includes talents previously involved with Solo Leveling, Attack on Titan and others.
Ahead of its weekend premiere on Netflix, Sakamoto Days anime’s English dub cast was formally announced alongside the final trailer reveal. The star-studded cast has unbelievably brought about the crossover of eminent talents from across the entertainment industry. The unimaginably explosive cast welcomes Sung Jinwoo’s voice actor Aleks Le from Solo Leveling, Matthew Mercer, who lent his voice to Levi in Attack on Titan and Leon S Kennedy in Resident Evil 6, Avatar: The Last Airbender’s Zuko actor Dallas Liu, Cobra Kai and Blue Beetle standout Xolo Mariduena and others.
The brand-new manga-to-small-screen-anime adaptation saga is reminiscent of the John Wick chronology as an ex-hitman-turned-shopkeeper ditches his old way to start a new chapter. However, he was soon left with no choice but to juggle dad duties while dodging bullets. Mangaka Yuuto Suzuki’s one-shot titled Sakamoto initiated the game-changing high-octane events of the titular character in 2019, resulting in a full-fledged launch of the main manga in Shueisha’s Weekly Shonen Jump magazine a year later.
