For the last twenty years the majority of his work has
been in voice over. From behind the microphone, he has
been heard getting strangled, chased, run over, slugged,
stabbed, shot, and set on fire. Don't try this at home.
He's the Mafioso, the hardened cop, the heavy breather,
the talking dog. He and Frank Welker voiced the reindeer
in "The Santa Clause." Sadly, their voice work
never saw the silver screen. And lest we not forget
his voicing and writing the line for the gay penguin
in "Dr. Doolittle," as he came swishing into
the roomful of animals haughtily announcing, "Oh, my
God, this place is a zoo!" Fun stuff. He has been heard
on over two hundred radio and television commercials.
Mahan's voice over work began in the oft-misunderstood
and highly invisible world of dubbing foreign language
films. He has dubbed hundreds of movies and Japanese
cartoons into English. He was one of the pioneers in
the ever popular world of anime. Some might remember
him as Private Sean Phillips from the 1980's
anime hit, "Robotech." From there, he began directing
dubbed foreign films and anime. Some of his promos include
HBO's "Taxi Cab Confessions," "Turbo: A Power
Rangers Movie," CNN's "Eye On Iraq," and the movie
trailer for "Signs." He has narrated numerous
shows, industrials, and documentaries. Mahan has voiced
a multitude of cartoon characters over the years. The
most infamous being the evil monster, Goldar,
of the very popular "Power Rangers" series, and
"Power Rangers, The Movie." He recurred as the nasty
character, Edwin Alva, on the WB cartoon,
"Static Shock," and the anime series, "Initial
D," playing the ex-race car driver, tofu shop owner,
coolest of cool, Bunta , which is currently on
sale at Target and Walmart. He has guest starred on
such shows as "Batman Beyond," "Angry Beavers," "Scooby
Doo," "As Told By Ginger," "The Fantastic Four,"
and a host of others. Most recently he did a Michael
Douglas voice match on the hit series, "The Family
Guy." Kerrigan was a regular on "Team Knight
Rider," voicing the Ford 150 truck, Attack Beast.
He also voiced the disc jockey, P.J. Hawk in
season one of the CBS series "The District."
He has voice-matched numerous stars, and, unfortunately,
has replaced, (dubbed in his voice), more actors' performances
than he would like to admit. Kerrigan Mahan is one of
the very few talents in today's market that works in
all categories of voice over. He has gained a reputation
over the years for being the consummate utility voice,
while at the same time, having established a strong
and recognizable signature voice.
