People talk a lot about Nolan North's version of Wade in comparison to Ryan's - because they are the two with audible diction I'm assuming, and I like both, but for different reasons.
Nolan makes his Wade sound more overtly unstable; he keeps more of the twang of the comics (though his voice also isn't rough), it always modulates in intensity, like a much milder version of the joker. It's a lot of fun to listen to imo.
Ryan goes in an entirely different direction. His Deadpool voice (not Wade, because he does them differently) is deliberately light, airy and friendly. He does Canadian Customer Service Voice and not only is it funny, it makes for a perfect contrast to his insane antics and catches both viewer and characters off guard when he flips on a coin and starts going ballistic.
His Wade, unlike Nolan, who seems to keep his voice pretty similar whether Wade is in or out of the suit, is much darker. A little deeper, but mostly darker in the sense that when the mask is off, Wade is fucking miserable. He's nearly always angry or emotionally challenged when out of the suit, both before, during and after weapon x. Ryan's maskless Wade is a hurting boy, utterly done with the world and/or lashing out and you can hear it in his delivery.

Characters that share the same voice as Smokescreen!
(That I personally find interesting)
- Deadpool (No, not Ryan Reynolds. Though hearing him voice Smokescreen would be funny.)
- Fish from Cat and The Hat Movie (I forgot he had a voice)
- Hades in God of War (O.O I'm just scrolling through his voices, but imma have to look into this one)
- Hank Pym (This is from 2006, so not too recent)
- Ghost Rider in Marvel: Ultimate Alliance (another voice I want to hear)
- TMNT 2007 Raphael (This was a video game, but still cool as heck)
- Nathan Drake (I saw the Uncharted movie, it was cool. He probably sounds really cool in the game)
- Goldar (In a power rangers video game? I grew up on power rangers)
- Desmond Miles (Don't know much about Assassin's Creed, but I think he's an important character)
- Sideswipe (Transformer: Rise of the Fallen)
- Stoick (How to train your dragon video game, and other media)
- Brawl (Transformers: War for Cybertron)
- The Penguin (Batman video games)
- David from The Last of Us (I feel like Smokescreen would be horrified)
- Skylynx (From the same continuity as Smokescreen. The giant Predacon shares Smokescreen's voice. They need to talk.)
- The Kraang (2013 TMNT)
- Superboy (Don't know much, but I can see Smokescreen being Superman's kid)
- Engineer (TF2 short, Expiration Date. TF2 is really funny)
- Green Goblin (Video game. Is the voice actor good at deep, creepy voices? That would be scary if Smokescreen talked like that)
- Leonardo, Shedder, Splinter (He voices a lot of TMNT characters, this is in a video game btw)
- Tony Stark (In a some games... And Fortnight)
- Ghost (Destiny seems like a cool game)
- Metroplex (Transformers: Titans Return)
- Chrome Dome (Transf- wait... What do you mean this is another TMNT character?)
- Modi (God of War, guess there's more than one. Is Modi the head?)
- Asmodeus in Scooby-Doo (Isn't he the devil of lust or something?)
- He's background characters in ROTTMNT...
- Superman (A few different media)
- Joker (Scooby-Doo and Krypto too)
- Swindle (Transformers: Earthspark)
That's a lot of voices...
EDIT: Well fuck... He's really good at terrifying. Smokescreen would be a very scary villain just with his voice alone.

Okay, so I’ve been thinking of Smokescreen from TFP a lot, and I’ve decided to share some thoughts/head-canons involving him
Tumblr media
First of all, we tend to ignore the fact that Smokescreen is a scarily adept thief. Just think about it: he’s always snitching the Phase Shifter until they allow him to keep it, and he manages to sneak away from the others to the battlefield or elsewhere with no one the wiser. So realistically speaking, Smokescreen is no stranger to sleight of hand tricks and stealth, meaning he likely stole - at least a little - before he was inducted into the Elite Guard, probably in order to survive.
And another thing about Smokescreen that always stuck out to me was how, despite his excitement for joining Team Prime and his insistence on “it being destiny/[he’s] destined to be a great warrior”, every time something went wrong, he blamed himself. He never shirked it onto someone else, or accused them of being at fault (come to think of it, he never pointed the finger at a teammate for anything). Instead, Smokescreen kicked himself for the failure and held himself to an unnecessary degree of accountability. It’s almost like he’s expecting too much from himself, so that, to me, says that Smokescreen thinks poorly of himself most of the time. Additionally, this leads me to think that he’s desperate for approval and acceptance from people, especially Team Prime and Optimus in particular. And I personally believe that Smokescreen’s ego early on is what he holds onto in order to convince himself that he is actually a worthy ‘Bot in his own right and not worthless or a burden.
So that’s left me to a couple of conclusions and theories: One, Smokescreen initially grew up in a darker part of Cybertron (clearly unaffected by the war); two, he was likely used by other Cybertronians for infiltration/recon/courier missions, and three he was often told what his worth was by others, half being condescending and the other half being sarcastic, with the occasional genuine praise from others, specifically his guardians.
And now we come to the real head-canon aspect of this: Smokescreen’s mysterious past (note, this is all from my own musings).
Tumblr media
So, I imagine Smokescreen was a kid who grew up in a little known place of Cybertron called the Mithril Sea. Like the Sea of Rust, it was primarily rust and heat, leaving only the strong to survive. An area largely ignored by most for their poor living conditions, the denizens of the Mithril Sea have to make frequent trade and excursions through the various run-down cities and markets to make a living. Taken in by the Axelerators merchant group, Smokescreen was the youngest and fastest of the group. Seeing the advantage of his youthful exuberance, the leader of the Axelerators often sent him to spy and steal from their rivals within the arid Mithril Sea. Despite the lack of empathy by most of the Axelerators, Smokescreen enjoyed the thrill of racing through the streets, jumping across the rooftops, and occasional chases by enemies. He would also get a kick out of pranking some of the better off and vain ‘Bots in the vicinity, or taunting his pursuers when they were unable to follow him into a particularly small passageway.
But this still left him restless. The Axelerators were always just using him for their next deal, for the next undermining of their opponents. It was a thankless and condescending life, but Smokescreen refused to believe that his life would always be so dull. Somehow, he always had an innate sense that he would leave the Mithril Sea and become a warrior - an idea that grew as he learned more about the ongoing Autobot-Decepticon War. He loved hearing the tales that would filter down into the market streets about the great battles, and the glorious cause of freedom for all that the new Prime, Optimus, spoke of. Hearing these stories drove Smokescreen to the knowledge that he was meant to be a soldier in the Autobot army, and he vowed to join their ranks after the passing of his guardian in the Axelerators.
Taking another mission on behalf of the Axelerators, Smokescreen instead stole a week’s worth of energon cubes and left the Mithril Sea. Arriving in Pellechrome, he bought more energon and supplies before searching for the nearest Autobot recruitment center. After pestering and waiting outside for a solid cycle, the sergeant accepted him into the Autobots and had him inducted into the Elite Guard for training. Overjoyed, Smokescreen joined the last unit of young Autobots to be trained under Rocket Plume, herself a deadly stealth agent. Smokescreen soon found that his background made him stand out to the more insecure ‘Bots, who would use him as a scapegoat and target for their actions. This naturally resulted in fights, but to the surprise of many, Smokescreen always came out on top, something that caught the eye of Rocket Plume. Taking him under her wing, Smokescreen’s skills at evasion, stealth, and battle truly flourished, although he was still considered an outcast by his fellow cadets. For that, as well as Rocket Plume’s teaching of changing one’s voice for covert operations, Smokescreen learned to suppress his natural Mithrilic accent to the point that no one who met him for the first time suspected his heritage.
When the war began to escalate, Smokescreen and his fellow cadets were given a hasty and unceremonious graduation, something that would forever disappoint him. With Rocket Plume pulled back onto the front lines, Smokescreen and the other graduates were sent to Iacon to bolster its defenses. Although pleading for a role on the Iacon front, Smokescreen was disheartened to learn that he would be given the position of security detail to Alpha Trion. Initially resenting this task, Smokescreen gradually built a rapport with Alpha Trion, whose grandfatherly nature and care earned the respect and loyalty of the young ‘Bot - especially when he was encouraged to speak with his natural accent. Seeing potential in the young Mithrilic and learning more of future events through the Covenant of Primus, Alpha Trion, under the pretense of old age, regaled Smokescreen with tales of Cybertron before the war, as well as those of Optimus and his past as Orion Pax.
To his great relief - and a certain amount of pride - Smokescreen was an eager learner, absorbing every fact related to Optimus and the battle techniques that Alpha Trion passed on to him. Eventually, the time came for Iacon’s fall, and Smokescreen eagerly waited near the doors to fully embrace and live up to the Autobot cause. Then, of course, Alpha Trion knocked him out and entrusted him with one of the Omega Keys, knowing that he would escape to Earth and help bring the Keys to Optimus.
Personally, I would have given Smokescreen a new human partner, and I’d reuse Tripp Summers from the 2018 Bumblebee film. Their bond would mostly focus on helping Smokescreen relax and realize his worth isn’t in his actions or what he can or can’t do for the team, but in his desire to do good and promote an end to the war. On Tripp’s side of things, Smokescreen would probably help him learn autonomy (I swear, that pun wasn’t intended) and to stop appeasing his haughty peers, whom he tries to please on behalf of his family.
And there we have it - my expanded history for Smokescreen. My boy deserved more attention and care in TFP, although what we got was good, too. To just further elaborate, the names of unknown locations and ‘Bots - Alpha Trion and Iacon notwithstanding, of course - I searched the Teletraan 1 Wiki for these places and expanded on them. So, if you’re curious, you can check them out there.
Additionally, I picture the Mithril Sea as stylized after ancient Persia, with the accent being Persian. The biggest reason for this is because first of all, I’m deeply interested in ancient Persia, the second being that Nolan North had previously voiced the Prince of Persia in the 2008 game. He’d wanted to do that accent for the character, but for some incomprehensible reason, the studio wanted his “Nate Drake” voice for the character.
Yeah, I don’t get that either. But at least this way, not only does Smokescreen have a larger and more colorful history, Mr. North would have the chance to use that accent whenever Smokescreen is agitated, excited, or frustrated by something. Who knows, maybe he’ll come across this and do that accent after all. I know I would certainly love to hear him use it!
See you around, folks!

Was I the only one who thought of Nolan, Troy and Hana’s reaction to this scene? Nolan just sitting there dumbstruck as Troy and Hana were literally crying is for sure the reaction of ALL-TIME and so I just had to edit them over HBO’s version of the scene.

Nathan Drake's voice (Uncharted) is David's voice (Tlou2)
Tumblr media
What is the relationship between the characters of David from "The Last of Us" and Nathan Drake from "Uncharted"? 🤔
They are both interpreted by Nolan North! 😁
"Neil contacted me and said he had some ideas about a character. You may have seen him but Neil can sometimes be a little... disturbed. He told me about this character, and I literally accepted the opportunity. It was completely the opposite of everything I had done before with Naughty Dog," says Nolan North for Grounded.
In the first script, David was not supposed to have such an important role, but it was Nolan North’s unexpected participation in "The Last of Us" that prompted Neil Druckmann to flesh out the character.
'We worked hard on his voice so that people couldn’t detect anything. We didn’t want it to be possible to guess who I was, that it was Nathan Drake, because in the collective imagination, a Natahn Drake who eats other people... that would have been... another story," stresses Nolan North.
Since the beginning of the adventure, the player kills as many infected as human beings. David’s character was of strategic importance: the men Joel and Ellie massacred were also survivors who suffered the losses of their loved ones. David’s men ultimately seek only to protect those they love, like Joel.
I must admit that the perversity of this character of David, is certainly the fact that he makes me hate him so much 😰
