While the name might not be instantly familiar, many anime and video game fans will know Le from his work across a number of titles.
Not only does he play Zenitsu in Demon Slayer and Mash in the hilarious Mashle: Magic and Muscles anime, but he also voiced the protagonist in Persona 3: Reload and Lighter in Zenless Zone Zero.
He’s also the main star of Sung Jin-Woo in the outstanding Solo Levelling which will debut its second season very soon.
The Vietnamese star will now be donning the infamous Batman cowl in a gorgeous new TV show that dazzles in early footage.
Announced on his Twitter account, Le shows off a minute of the show and I have to say, his voice is superb.
It’s got the right amount of gravel to it while not mimicking previous actors who have played the role so well.
One look at his IMDB shows what a prolific actor he is when it comes to voice work and he’s got a wealth of roles under his belt.
Fellow voice actor Jenny Yokobori congratulated Le on the new role saying, “I’m so freaking proud of you.”
And it seems fans are thrilled to find he will play The Dark Knight.
“IS THERE ANYONE YOU CAN'T BE??? Are you gonna be Mickey Mouse next Sunday?” said one Twitter user.
Several fans are even comparing Le’s performance to the late, great Kevin Conroy who played Batman for many years.
“Capturing your inner Kevin Conroy I see,” said one Twitter reply, to which Le said, “That’s what I’m going for. I wanted the voice to be strong & projected with a really chesty sound like Kevin whenever he’s in action or talking to someone else. Thanks for noticing!”
