Here's an interview with Fever Ray and her brother where they're just talking. I think that puts Makkal's suggestion for Ava in some more perspective. I highly doubt Ava sings every word of conversation. :D

It can be difficult to pin down Nordic or Baltic accents in English because many celebrities of various stripes will speak either British or North Central American English very well. I would say that elongated vowels and rolling R's are common where this is less the case.

I have no idea, but it'd be someone with a Persian or Arabic accent. I'm open to suggestions.

Speaking of Batman, I hear Samira as Talia (Marion Cotillard ).

Could be good, yeah. I don't really have enough exposure to actresses with that accent to determine if there isn't anything more fitting, though.

Guy Pearce;



As heard here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dQpGwnN3dfc

Maybe with some good old Edward James Olmos gravel-y-ness in there.

I played with the idea of a different accent, but the accent of Guy Pearce as Peter Weyland I feel better reflects N'maro's Gallente childhood as well as his own poker facing and making a deliberate image.

Ever since Seriphyn pointed out how well it suited him, I've been hearing Pritchard's voice in my head whenever Andreus speaks. It's amazing.

These days, Vieve sounds a fair bit like Virginia Madsen as Princess Irulan (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hz80yT84EcI).

The average of Celeste's voices (which vary with mood, audience and degree of indifference vs. inebriation) is most likely Christine Baranski.

I have no idea what Maris sounds like.

Ava sounds like Maria Arkhipova in my head :3

Oddly, Ava was modeled very, very heavily on her. Must have done it well!

Vince sounds like Tomi Joutsen to me.... huh  :D

I've always envisioned Tabor has having a Peter Steele voice.

Links for this song don't last long for some reason : http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zJW4WRvwWKs

I can hear this. Then again it helps that I've been an Amorphis fan for 12 years...

I sound nothing like him but Arnulf should, ideally, sound like Jurgen Prochnow.

Specifically as her voicing the role of Duchess in Aristocats.

Not me choosing but I heartily approve of the choice.

I select one of my favorite actors from one of my favorite series, James Ransone, who played Ray Person in Generation Kill.

Sarcastic, at times pointlessly wordy, but verbose and at the end of the day pretty intelligent.
