Meet the Voice Actors of Red Dead Redemption 2’s Voice Cast
Roger Clark – Arthur Morgan
Rockstar tend to shy away from the big name video game voice actors for their games, often to great affect. They’ve done the same for Red Dead Redemption 2, with your protagonist, Arthur Morgan, being played by Roger Clark. Clark isn’t credited on many video games, Shellshock 2: Blood Trails being the only one, but he’s worked on TV, theatre, and movies throughout his career. He also used to work as an archaeological excavator. He’s phenomenal as Arthur in Rockstar’s new game.
Benjamin Byron Davis – Dutch Van der Linde
Dutch Van der Linde is probably one of the most recognizable characters and voices in Red Dead Redemption 2 because he was in the first game too. Also, Benjamin Byron Davis return to the role once more. If you didn’t play the first game, you may also know Davis from Ant-Man and the Wasp, in which he played Agent Burleigh, or L.A. Noire, in which he played Paul Kadarowski.
Noshir Dalal – Charles Smith
Noshir Dalal is one of the more experienced voice actors in Red Dead Redemption 2’s cast. Over the last few years, he has played Seth in Metal Gear Survive, Khalil in Call of Duty: Black Ops 3, and a lot of smaller roles in AAA releases.

Since it’s a prequel, John Marston is a younger outlaw, and the story follows the gang in eventually becomes a part of. While Wiethoff’s performance in original is often lauded, he doesn’t dedicate his life to the voice acting craft. In fact, it’s his only video game acting credit, choosing to stay away from the Hollywood world of acting.

Mostly working as a stage actor in New York, Curzon Dobell only video game work has come in Red Dead Redemption 2 as Hosea Matthews. He’s had smaller role in the likes of House of Cards, the Shia LaBeouf starring Wall Street sequel, and last year’s Academy Award nominated The Post.
