Joshua Luis Wiener (born February 8, 1979), known by his stage name Josh Keaton, is an American actor and voice actor.
Early life
Keaton was born in Hacienda Heights, California, to a father from Brooklyn, New York and a mother from Lima, Peru.[1] He has three sisters: Danielle, Alitzah (Ali Navarro), and Sabrina. He is fluent in Spanish; he started his career as a child in Spanish and then later in English. As a child, he learned to speak some Quechua from his maternal grandparents.
Career
His career has included television, video game and film work, with a mixture of live acting and voice work for animations. As an infant, he appeared in an OshKosh B'Gosh commercial. He was in the 1990s boy band No Authority and was signed to MJJ Music and later RCA Records as a solo artist.
Keaton voiced Jules Brown in Back to the Future: The Animated Series during 1991/1992 and Major Ocelot during Metal Gear Solid 3: Snake Eater and Metal Gear Solid: Portable Ops. From 2008 to 2009, he voiced Spider-Man in The Spectacular Spider-Man animated series on the CW. He was originally supposed to voice Spider-Man in the 2002 Spider-Man video game but his voice work was scrapped and reworked as Harry Osborn/Green Goblin when Tobey Maguire came on to voice the character.[2] He also reprised the role of Harry Osborn in the 2007 video game Spider-Man: Friend or Foe, and Spider-Man again in the video games Spider-Man: Shattered Dimensions, Marvel vs. Capcom 3, and Spider-Man: Edge of Time.
In 2011, Keaton is the current voice for Spyro the Dragon in the Skylanders reboot of the franchise, Jack Darby and Tailgate on Transformers: Prime, and Hal Jordan in Green Lantern: The Animated Series.
At Wondercon 2016, it was announced that Keaton will play Shiro, one of the main characters of the new Voltron animated series. Voltron: Legendary Defender set to premiere on June 10, exclusively on Netflix.[3]
