Interview: Joe Zieja Talks Voice Acting, ‘Genshin Impact’s Wriothesley, and More! [EXCLUSIVE]

Share

Video games, animation, commercials, promotional content, you name it — voice actor Joe Zieja has done it all.

Fans of Genshin Impact will recognize him as the voice of the Duke of the Fortress of Meropide, Fontaine’s Wriothesley, while others may know him as the Heir to House Riegan, Claude, in Fire Emblem: Three Houses (and we certainly can’t forget Tokyo Revengers‘ Kazutora Hanemiya).

Zieja joined us for a chat to discuss his experiences as a voice actor, as well as his Epic Failure book series (yes, he’s an author, too!), his time in the United States Air Force, his Voice Acting Academy, and more.

Genshin Impact is available to download on Android, iOS, PC, PS4, and PS5.
