Cedric Williams, a native of Kentucky, made the bold decision to relocate to Los Angeles in pursuit of an on-camera acting career. However, it was during his auditions for TV shows and movies that he discovered the world of voice acting, specifically for cartoons, which had always fascinated him. Growing up, he would often mimic his favorite cartoon character, Spongebob, and something about it sparked a newfound passion within him.
Embracing his newfound interest, Cedric decided to fully commit to voice acting, immersing himself in the craft by listening to demos, studying the work of his favorite voice actors, and tuning in to podcasts. This dedication allowed him to produce his own voiceover demos, which eventually caught the attention of an agent and local studios.
Cedric's first major role was in the Cartoon Network pilot "Lasso & Comet," where he had the opportunity to work alongside veteran voice actor Richard Horvitz, best known for his iconic role as Invader Zim. Since then, he has gone on to work in a wide range of projects, including anime, video games, original animation, and commercials.
Some of his notable roles include Cheetu in "Hunter X Hunter," Don in "The Promised Neverland," Tsugawa in "Kuroko's Basketball," Senjuro Rengoku in Demon Slayer Mugen Train, Leon in "Pokémon Masters Ex," Howlet Groms in "Final Fantasy War of the Visions," Kurosawa and Junya in "Genshin Impact," Al in "Phantasy Star Online 2," Prince Starling in "Thundercats Roar," Boris in the Amazon Prime animated series "Boris & Rufus," the voice of the player in the video game "Aliens: Fireteam Elite," Drake Miller and Glowboo in Ghost Force on Disney XD, Quentin & Quincy in 9 Years to Neptune, and many more on the horizon.
