Yōhei Tadano (多田野 曜平, Tadano Yōhei, born March 10, 1962) is a Japanese actor and voice actor from
Fukuoka Prefecture, Japan.
Biography
Tadano's interest in acting began in his elementary school years. In 1981, while studying at the
University of the Ryukyus, he joined the production "Audience Seats" at the Okinawa Jean Jean festival. After graduating from college, he worked most immediately as a salesman, but later became involved with a series of theater companies. Tadano joined the Theater Echo Training Institute in 1988, and two years later became a research student at the same entity. He was named a troupe member in April 1994 and was further promoted in April 2000.
Tadano is currently active mainly on stage and in voice-over work. On February 27, 2019, he became Kitakyushu City's Tourism Ambassador.[1]
His first voice-over assignment was in 1993 with the Japanese-language dubbing of the American film The Saint of Fort Washington.[2] Dubbing assignments for western movies continued for some time, but from 2006 Tadano expanded into anime, first for Hime-sama Goyōjin.
For the 2009 TV dub of For a Few Dollars More, which restored scenes deleted from the 1973 theatrical cut, he was cast as Manco, replacing the late Yasuo Yamada. A dubbing staff member heard Tadano's performance in Hime-sama Goyōjin and said, "There's a guy who sounds like Lupin!", referring to Yamada's celebrated role.
Tadano also dubbed Eastwood in restored scenes for the Japanese TV dub of The Good, the Bad and the Ugly as well.
Since his face physically resembles Tadao Futami, a senior member of a well-known theater company, Tadano took on the stage role of Futami.[3] Because his voice shares some similarities with
Yasuo Yamada, a senior troupe member, Tadano often substitutes for Yamada when required.
