Corey Burton is an American actor, voice actor, and singer best known as the current voices of Ludwig von Drake, Captain Hook, Gruffi Gummi, and many other characters for numerous Disney projects, as well as characters from Star Wars: The Clone Wars(including Count Dooku, Cad Bane, and Ziro the Hutt) and other animations.
He has also done a lot of narration work. In 2000, Burton was called in to dub over Deems Taylor's narration in Fantasia. This was done as when the restoration team was preparing Fantasia, some of Taylor's narration was missing or in too bad condition to be publicly released. So, Burton re-dubbed all of the film's dialogue to give it a consistent flow. He has also narrated several Disney documentaries and bonus features, such as The Story Behind Fun and Fancy Free, Bambi: The Magic Behind the Masterpiece, and The Jungle Book: The Making of a Musical Masterpiece. He also provided voice work in several attractions at Disney theme parks, most notably as the monorail tram narration at Disneyland and the Walt Disney World Resort.
He received an Annie Award for his work as Ludwig Von Drake in House of Mouse, as well as an Annie nomination for his voice work as Captain Hook in Return to Never Land and Jake and the Never Land Pirates. He also voiced the Narrator in Future-Worm!.
Outside of Disney, he is well-known for voicing Brawn, Shockwave, and Spike Witwicky in Transformers: The Movie; Brainiac in Static Shock; King Mumbo Jumbo and Stick Figure Baker in ChalkZone; Malware, Mr. Baumann, Brainstorm, Seebik, Fiskerton, V.V. Argost, Albedo, and Kane North in the Ben 10 franchise; Jaga and Tygus in the 2011 series of ThunderCats; and for being the current voice of Dr. N. Gin in the Crash Bandicoot video game franchise.
