Celebrity voice acting in movies is always a bit of a risky game. Some prove to be absolute naturals in the medium, and others just can't seem to pull it off at all. In this case, though, the perfect individual that comes to mind has, luckily, established herself quite firmly in the former category. And that individual is Sarah Silverman.

Her performance as the squeaky-voiced Vanellope von Schweetz in the Wreck-It-Ralph series makes her the ideal candidate to play Eternia's quirky little Trollan mainstay, Orko.

Though not part of the original toy line, Orko is one of the main characters of the '80s animated series and has become one of the franchise's most recognisable faces. Needless to say, it would be a terrible shame if the upcoming Masters of the Universe film chose to omit him.

But, assuming that's not the case, there's really no-one better to bring the marvellously shrill mage to the big screen than Silverman, whose distinctive high-pitched voice can undoubtedly recapture that charming comic relief that Orko represented in the original series.
