It was voice actor Robin Atkin Downes who confirmed on Twitter on February 26 that he has helped bring Doomsday to life in “Batman vs. Superman: Dawn of Justice.”
He described how proud he was to be part of the movie. As a voice actor, his face would not be seen in the film. It is more than likely that Downes performed the motion capture to bring the CGI beast to the big screen while lending his voice to the big production.
Robin Atkin Downes has been working a lot with DC Animation as he has lent his voice in various animated series including “Batman: Bad Blood,” “Batman: Arkham Knight,” “Batman vs. Robin,” “Beware the Batman,” “All-Star Superman” and “Justice League: Doom.”
As a versatile voice actor that he is, he has voiced many characters from DC Comics including Alfred Pennyworth, Harvey Dent, Deathstroke, and the Court of Owls Grandmaster.
He has also lent his voice in some DC video games including “Batman: Arkham Origins” and “Lego Batman 3: Beyond Gotham.” Other than serving for DC, he has also done some voice work for Marvel Animation by lending his voice to Abomination and Mister Fantastic.
Reports have it that Doomsday will be featured in “Batman vs. Superman: Dawn of Justice” with an interesting backstory or how he came out to be the big bad that he has become.
