Early life

[edit]

LaMarche was born inToronto,Ontario,[1] on March 30, 1958, to Guy LaMarche and Linda Bourdon.[2] His family moved toTimmins, Ontario shortly after he was born and moved back to Toronto when he was around 4.[3] LaMarche's childhood was filled with his "own little world of cartoons and sixties television".[3] It was in his second year of high school that he learned of the popularity his talent formimicry could garner him. This realization came from a coincidental performance in a high school "variety night" when a couple of friends urged him to enter. The act he performed at the variety night was "celebrities as waiters" which he used until the end of his stand-up career.[3]

One of his neighbours was comedianMike Myers.[4]

Career

[edit]

Stand-up comedy

[edit]
LaMarche in 2006

At the age of nineteen, LaMarche took his high school act to anopen mic night inNew York City, performing to a reaction in which, as he describes, "they just totally ignored me".[5] This reaction was coupled with the criticism LaMarche received from fellow Canadian comedians who LaMarche describes as discouraging him from pursuing a career outside of Canada.[6] He returned to Canada, continued to do stand-up, and also started a career in voice work.

Three years later, LaMarche moved toLos Angeles to further his stand-up career. This move, LaMarche says, would always be something he regretted doing instead of moving to New York: "... in retrospect, I thought it was a mistake. I think that a couple of years in New York would have made me a stronger comedian."[7]

Over the next five years, LaMarche's career progressed, playing comedy clubs throughout the US, with several appearances onThe Merv Griffin Show andAn Evening At The Improv. In spite of such interest, LaMarche believed that, while his impersonations and stage presence were professional, he needed to develop funnier comedy material. LaMarche was asked to be part of the 1985HBO productionRodney Dangerfield Hosts the 9th Annual Young Comedians Special, on whichBob Saget,Rita Rudner,Louie Anderson,Yakov Smirnoff also appeared, and included the breakout first appearance ofSam Kinison. Although he was received and reviewed favourably, in looking back on his own performance in that special, LaMarche believed he was "probably about five years away from going from being a good comedian to being a great comedian" and being the "only impressionist that actually comes from somewhere".[8]

During his standup career, LaMarche opened for such acts asRodney Dangerfield,George Carlin,Howie Mandel,David Sanborn, andDonna Summer, usually in the main showrooms ofLas Vegas andAtlantic City.[9]

On March 9, 1987, LaMarche's father was murdered, shot to death by a lifelong friend in a Toronto hotel lobby in front of dozens of witnesses. This sent LaMarche intodepression andalcoholism for the next two years, effectively stalling his stand-up career.[10] After gettingsober on January 20, 1989, LaMarche returned to stand-up comedy in the early part of 1990. As he was regaining self-confidence, his 18-year-old sister was killed in a car accident in September of that year.[11] At this point, though he remained sober, LaMarche decided to retire from stand-up comedy. He said, "at that point I just threw up my hands and went, 'Oh, that's it. I don't have any funny left in me. I'm done'".[11]

Voice acting

[edit]

Early Canadian work

[edit]

LaMarche's entry into thevoiceover industry was in 1980 inEaster Fever andTake Me Up to the Ball Game, two animated Canadian TV specials fromNelvana.[12] He also was a regular voice performer on Toronto's pioneering cult TV hitThe All-Night Show, which debuted in September 1980; a continuing feature had the lips of LaMarche inserted into a photograph of a famous person, and having LaMarche imitate that person to deliver a show promo or announcement. When LaMarche left the show in 1981,Jim Carrey was recruited to take his place as a voice actor.[13]

Television

It took a few years after his 1981 move to Los Angeles for LaMarche to establish himself in the American voiceover industry, which he initially pursued as a side endeavor during his full-time standup comedy career. LaMarche began onInspector Gadget with that show's second season in 1985, and went on toDennis the Menace,Popeye and Son andThe Real Ghostbusters where he playedEgon Spengler. AfterThe Real Ghostbusters, LaMarche became a regular mainstay of the voiceover industry, appearing in such shows asTiny Toon Adventures,GI Joe,Attack of the Killer Tomatoes: The Animated Series,Taz-Mania,Where's Waldo,The Little Mermaid,Batman: The Animated Series, andBonkers before landing perhaps his most recognized role in 1993 asThe Brain onAnimaniacs and later its spin-off showPinky and the Brain. Following this, LaMarche worked onThe Critic,Freakazoid!, andThe Tick before then reprising his role of Egon inExtreme Ghostbusters. The stretch of two years after this saw LaMarche portray characters in such shows asHey Arnold! as Big Bob Pataki,Queer Duck, andThe Chimp Channel. During this time LaMarche became the voice actor forMortimer Mouse, whom he voiced in the television seriesMickey Mouse Works andHouse of Mouse. It was at this time, 1999, that LaMarche began work onFuturama, and sinceFuturama, he has continued to work steadily in television, including guest roles onThe Simpsons (where he once again parodiedOrson Welles). His most recent regular role came as Hovis the butler on the Nickelodeon seriesCatscratch. LaMarche was the voice of antagonist Father inCodename: Kids Next Door and was also the voice of Victor in Playhouse Disney'sHandy Manny 2007 Halloween episode. He also played the voice role of Grumpy in the 2014 Disney XD seriesThe 7D, a reimagining ofSnow White and the Seven Dwarfs.

LaMarche has done various voice work for manyWarner Bros. Animation andDiC Entertainment cartoons. He also delivered the protracted belches for the "Great Wakkorotti" shorts onAnimaniacs, in whichWakko Warner performed various pieces of music. One of those belches was later recycled for Buddy in 2003'sNew Line Cinema filmElf. In 2011, LaMarche reprised his role asYosemite Sam inCartoon Network's new series,The Looney Tunes Show, and its spin-off,New Looney Tunes.

LaMarche made several appearances inMy Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic where he voiced Chancellor Neighsay.

Pinky and the Brain

[edit]

LaMarche plays the character of The Brain in bothAnimaniacs andthe spin-off.[14] In creating the voice for Brain, LaMarche says he looked at a picture of the character and immediately thought ofOrson Welles,[15] although the character was not modeled after Welles.[16] Voicing Brain gave LaMarche the opportunity to make use of his signature impersonation of Welles.[17] ManyPinky and the Brain episodes are nods to Welles' career. LaMarche won anAnnie Award for his role as the Brain, and was nominated for an Emmy.[18] LaMarche later used this accent to voice Father inCodename: Kids Next Door.

The Critic

[edit]

While working onThe Critic, LaMarche once voiced 29 characters in one 30-minute episode.[19]

His time onThe Critic also afforded LaMarche the opportunity to once again parodyOrson Welles, this time after a video reading of a will (the Sherman family was so wealthy, they had hired Welles to narrate it) dissolves into a commercial for Mrs. Pells Fishsticks, as well as another for RosebudFrozen Peas ("full of count-ry goodness and green pea-ness"), and another for Blotto Bros. wine. He also occasionally served as an uncredited fill-in for main cast memberJon Lovitz asJay Sherman.

Futurama

[edit]

Much of his best known voice work is fromFuturama where he voicedZapp Brannigan's beleaguered assistantKif Kroker, melodramatic soap acting unitCalculon, the Nero-esqueHedonismbot,Morbo the news anchor, andLrrr, ruler of the planet Omicron Persei 8, among numerous others. He has also done hisOrson Welles impression on the show, winning a 2011 Outstanding Voice-Over Performance Emmy for his portrayal of Lrrr and Orson Welles in the episode "Lrrreconcilable Ndndifferences". He won another Emmy the following year for the episode "The Silence of the Clamps".

Heroes

[edit]

LaMarche acted, voice only, in the second episode of the hit NBC showHeroes, "Don't Look Back", as the villainSylar. His voice is heard in a recorded phone conversation on Chandra Suresh's answering machine. The role of Sylar was later played byZachary Quinto.[20]

Film

[edit]

LaMarche appeared in many films, including dubbing the voice of Orson Welles overVincent D'Onofrio's on-camera performance inEd Wood;Pepé Le Pew inSpace Jam; supplying the voice of theAlec Baldwin puppet inTeam America: World Police, and reprising his roles fromQueer Duck andFuturama in thedirect-to-video filmsQueer Duck: The Movie andFuturama: Bender's Big Score, respectively. More recently, LaMarche was the voice of Mr. Big, the Tundratown crimeboss in Disney's 2016 filmZootopia.

His one on-camera theatrical film performance was in the 1981 Canadian featureFunny Farm, not to be confused with a later Chevy Chase vehicle of the same name. The film follows the story of a young standup comedian's attempt to break into the big-time on the L.A. comedy scene. LaMarche played Dickie Lyons, an impressionist who befriends the main character, Mark Champlin. The film also starredHowie Mandel,Eileen Brennan, andMiles Chapin.

InMark Hamill's 2004 filmComic Book: The Movie, LaMarche made a rare live appearance to be in the special features of theDVD alongsidePinky and the Brain co-starRob Paulsen. Among other gags, he re-enacted his impression ofOrson Welles' famous frozen peas commercial outtake.

Commercials

[edit]

LaMarche has also lent his voice to commercials. He voicedKellogg'sFroot Loops spokesbirdToucan Sam, the animatedWilly Wonka character inNestlé'sWilly Wonka Candy Company commercials, and the narrator forLexus commercials. He has also appeared as himself, doing the voice ofPopeye the Sailor for theLong John Silver's restaurant chain in the early 1990s, reprising the role from the TV seriesPopeye & Son.

On 8 September 2018, LaMarche was featured in the commercial for the open world driving gameForza Horizon 4.

Theme parks

[edit]

LaMarche provided the voice ofYosemite Sam for theYosemite Sam and the Gold River Adventure!dark ride atSix Flags Over Texas, which opened in 1992.[21]
