Who is John Bentley? The Star Trek Actor Voicing LeBron James In His Latest Game Appearance with Rick and Morty

After making his much-anticipated appearance in ‘Space Jam: A New Legacy’, Los Angeles Lakers star LeBron James is ready to once again hit screens worldwide.

Warner Bros. Games is launching a mega project named ‘MultiVersus’. This game brings together some of the biggest icons of the gaming and entertainment industry. Some of the names included in the project are Rick and Morty, Batman, Superman, and LeBron.

Unsurprisingly, James’ abilities in the game center around using a basketball. The 4 time NBA champion can throw the ball at his opponents and can also dribble around them to cause damage.

The former MVP is known to be a great teammate. This was also confirmed by the makers of the game, Warner Bros. “Lebron is “the ultimate teammate who can adapt to any playstyle, coupled with his unbeatable basketball moves, from dunks and alley-oops to assists and ball ricochets and more”, said the makers of the game.

Who is the actor voicing LeBron James in the game?

Although the game model of the Lakers star looks a lot like him, the character’s voice is not that of LeBron. It is not James who is voicing himself in the game, rather it is eminent actor John Bentley. He is known for his roles in movies like ‘Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen’ and ‘Resident Evil: Extinction’.

Interestingly enough, this is not the first time he is voicing a character. Bentley most famously voiced characters in ‘Avengers Confidential: Black Widow & Punisher’.

Users around the world can play with LeBron’s character when the open beta version drops on July 26. On the other hand, various other popular characters like Rick and Morty will be available to play when season 1 drops on August 9.
