Mark Hamill Dubbed Two Characters in Avatar The Last Airbender; One Will Surprise You

Mark Hamill plays one of the iconic characters in Avatar: The Last Airbender, but, according to ScreenRant, he is also responsible for the voice of another, lesser-known character who also lives in the Spirit World. Undeniably, Hamill's most important role in the series was that of the main antagonist, Fire Lord Ozai, whom Aang must stop from taking over the world. While Ozai plays the role of the villain, Mark Hamill's other character is a mysterious ghost who perfectly reflects the mysterious nature of the reality in which he exists.

The main protagonist of the show, Aang, has the extraordinary ability to travel between two worlds - the physical and the spiritual. In the initial phase of his journey, the protagonist encounters the spirit of a baboon, who is so busy meditating that he doesn't care at all about his presence and requests for help. It turns out that both this spirit and Ozai have the same voice actor - Mark Hamill. Nevertheless, that is where their similarities end. Ozai shows a lack of interest in spirituality and completely ignores both spirits and the balance of the world. This makes the fact that he shares a voice with a meditative spirit extremely interesting.

Although the baboon introduced in the first season is only an episodic character, he perfectly introduces the viewer to the atmosphere of Spirit World and does so in an entertaining way.

As for animation, in addition to his roles as the sinister Fire Lord Ozai and the meditating ghost, Mark Hamill also proved himself as the Joker in Batman The Animated Series. Although the actor is best known for his portrayal of Luke Skywalker in Star Wars, he also has a knack for playing villains.
