Thomas Kane Roberts (April 15, 1962 – May 18, 2026) was an American voice actor. He was known for his work in animation and video games, most notably the Star Wars franchise, voicing established characters Yoda, Admiral Ackbar, Boba Fett, Qui-Gon Jinn, and C-3PO. Other notable roles include Professor Utonium in The Powerpuff Girls, Darwin Thornberry in The Wild Thornberrys, Mr. Herriman in Foster's Home for Imaginary Friends, and Woodhouse in Archer, taking the role over from George Coe following his death in 2015. Kane provided his voice as an announcer for theme park attractions at Disneyland and Walt Disney World, and served as an announcer for several Academy Awards ceremonies, as well as for the Adult Swim series The Eric Andre Show in its second season. In November 2020, Kane suffered a stroke which left him with significant weakness on the right side of his body and damage to his speaking, writing, and reading abilities. In September 2021, his daughter Sam confirmed that he had to retire from voice acting. She gave regular updates on Facebook about his condition. Kane later died from complications of the stroke at a hospital in Kansas City, Missouri, on May 18, 2026, at the age of 64.
In the quirky coastal town of Oceanville, summer is just beginning, and the residents are gearing up for the annual Founders’ Festival, a celebration that brings in tourists and joy to the town every year. But when a local swimmer mysteriously disappears, suspicions rise—and Mac, a curious and brave young boy, begins to investigate with his overconfident and mischievous imaginary friend, Blooregard "Bloo" Q. Kazoo. Despite warnings from Frankie Foster, a responsible teen working part-time as a lifeguard, the town’s overly proper mayor, Mr. Herriman, insists that the beach remain open to preserve Oceanville's economy. But as more bizarre and cartoonishly gruesome incidents occur along the shoreline, it becomes clear that something sinister lurks beneath the water—a monstrous, dangerous great white shark. To protect the town, Mac, Bloo, Frankie, and two unlikely allies—Wilt, the gentle voice of reason, and Eduardo, a lovable scaredy-cat turned wannabe shark hunter—embark on a daring and hilarious mission to hunt down the sea beast. With a rickety paddleboat, improvised gadgets, and Bloo's questionable leadership, the group faces off against their aquatic foe in an epic, slapstick showdown at sea.
