Ahead of his appearance at GAMMA Canberra this weekend, we catch up with Australian actor, stuntman and voice artist Neil Fanning. He’s the guy behind Scooby-Doo in the live-action movies, and honestly, a huge part of so many of our childhoods.

Neil takes us through his wild career, from being one of the first performers at Warner Bros Movie World and starring in the Police Academy Stunt Show, to scoring the gig as the voice of Scooby-Doo. He worked alongside legends like Matthew Lillard, Sarah Michelle Gellar and James Gunn, and he’s got some seriously great behind-the-scenes stories from the Gold Coast set.

We get into the voice-off that landed him the role, the moment Scooby went Aussie and how he ended up voicing literally every ghost in the movie. Plus, there’s some exciting news about the upcoming Netflix live-action Scooby-Doo series.

If you’re into animation, theme parks or just want to hear from a bloke who helped bring one of the most beloved characters of all time to life, this one’s for you.
