Our 2026 May Miniseries CATEGORY IS… continues this week with a discussion about a dreamed-for category that stirred a lot of conversation, particularly in the 2000s. We’re talking about Voice Acting! This episode, we dive into a Disney-centric history of celebrated Disney performances and which of them might have been Oscar frontrunners, from Robin Williams to Ellen DeGeneres. We also talk about voice performances that earned major precursor nominations, Andy Serkis making waves in motion capture as Gollum, and how narration and documentary work might also be considered. And of course: the ten voice acting performances we would hand a retroactive Oscar!
