13 Hollywood Stars Who Voiced Favourite Studio Ghibli Characters
3. Patrick Stewart - Nausicaa: Valley Of The Wind
While Valley Of The Wind was actually created just before the studio was officially founded, it is widely considered to be the very beginning of the Ghibli Empire and is included in the Studio Ghibli Collection DVD box set. The original was released in Japan in the 80s, though the English language version wasnt dubbed until 2005 when it attracted the attention of actors it couldnt have dreamed of 20 years previous. Patrick Stewart came on board as Master Yupa, an explorer and seasoned swordsman who mentors our young hero Nausicaa, who just happens to be the Princess of the aforementioned valley. Stewarts unmistakable tones really seem at home coming from behind Yupas huge bushy beard.
