edit introduction
Marcel divides his time between film and television, voice work, and theatre, where his versatility makes him equally at home in Shakespearean parts, clown and slapstick comedy. He began his career as a member of the Stratford Festival company in 1991 under David William, and the Young Company under Marti Maraden the following year. Since then, he has gone on to perform leading parts in various theatres across Canada, most recently, as a member of the National Arts Centre acting company under Peter Hinton. Television credits include the lead in CBC’s Snakes and Ladders, and guest spots on Dead Zone and Largo Winch. Feature film credits include Paul Schrader’s Affliction, and blockbusters such as Taking Lives, and 300. A prominent voice actor, he has lent his voice to over two hundred and fifty productions in the past twenty-five years, running the gamut from documentary narration, to commercial voice-overs, to animated series. He was the voice of the laconic Lucky Luke and his dim canine sidekick, Rin-Tin-Dumb inThe New Adventures of Lucky Luke, Mona’s dad in Mona the Vampire and Buster Baxter’s dad in Postcards from Buster. He has lent his talents to Montreal’s vibrant videogame industry, providing voices for such hit games as the Assassins Creed series, and the Splinter Cell series, among many others, and where his physical theatre background makes him a sought-after motion capture actor.
