Award-winning Theatre, Television and Film actor Chad Joseph Doreck was born and raised in Southern California. He grew up in a blue collar family in Long Beach, CA, the son of Kentucky born contractor Stephen Doreck and Chicago born homemaker Catherine Doreck with one sister and one brother. Chad began comprehensive acting and performing arts training at a very young age and joined the Screen Actors Guild at the age of 8. After attending St. Maria Goretti Catholic grade school he was accepted into the highly competitive theatre program at the acclaimed Orange County School of the Arts along side other working actors and future Tony, Emmy, and Oscar winners. He went on the briefly study film at USC, dropping out due to his work as an actor. Having appeared in hundreds of commercials, voice overs, cartoons, and several television shows, movies and stage plays, Chad is known for his ability to work between disciplines and genres. His professional debut was for the music video for the title track of the movie Weird Science where he worked with Kelly LeBrock, Danny Elfman, and director Howie Deutsch. In 2006 he was scouted by Broadway casting directors to join in the reality competition Grease: You're the One That I Want. After finishing in top 4 he was cast in the smash Off-Broadway hit musical comedy Altar Boyz. He credits his mentor, actress Gloria Gifford, for shifting his career by directing him in the wildly lauded Los Angeles production of Sam Shepard's Fool for Love for which he won several awards and accolades. Beside being an actor Chad is also accomplished singer, songwriter, and dancer, . He was the recipient of the the Mercury records song writing scholarship at UCLA and has danced for legendary choreographers like Debbie Allen and Wade Robson. In his spare time, Doreck studies Spanish, Krav Maga, and fencing. He is an avid gardener and classic movie fanatic (Cary Grant being his idol.) He volunteers at horse rescue Hoofprints to Freedom and his charity Heart of Rock and Roll produces concerts from which the proceed are donated to music programs in local schools.
Ever since Wolverine And The X-Men, The Spectacular Spider-Man, and The Avengers: Earth's Mightiest Heroes were canceled, I decided to put together a current high-quality grouping of all the best Marvel voices we've had over the years with some original ideas mixed in to represent what I think the current animated voice cast for the Marvel Universe should look like.
