We have VENTRESS. (If you haven’t watched this week’s The Bad Batch, then chalk this announcement up as simply random.) We are excited to bring a favorite from the Clone Wars (and now The Bad Batch) to the Washington State Summer Con in Puyallup from June 21st through the 23rd. Nika has voiced the complicated and sometimes-villainous Asajj Ventress in the Star Wars Universe.
Nika Futterman has been a staple in the world of animated entertainment for decades, bringing life to countless beloved characters. From her dangerously saucy turn as Catwoman in Batman The Brave and the Bold to playing the unforgettable Olga Pataki on Hey Arnold! as well as her work on contemporary classics like Mickey Mouse Funhouse Woody Woodpecker and Sonic Booms he continues to inspire and entertain new generations of fans.
Her fierce portrayal of Asajj Ventress in Star Wars: The Clone Wars has been celebrated by critics and fans alike for its depth, nuance, and sensitivity, while Luna Loud in The Loud House not only highlights her considerable talent as a singer, but has sparked important conversations about representation and diversity in family entertainment Of course, anyone who spends time with a joystick in their hands will know her work in hundreds of video games such as The Last Of Us StarCraft World of Warcraft Halo Grand Theft Auto and Guild Wars.
When she isn’t in the recording booth crafting indelible childhood memories and inspiring positive social change, she can be found at the poker table. She splits her time between Los Angeles and Las Vegas, where she lives with her husband, daughter, and menagerie of beloved rescue dogs.
