So I had to take Geralt to some places vocally that I hadn&#8217;t been asked to take him before. I remember at one point the vocal director saying &#8216;can you just project that a little bit more?&#8217; and I said &#8216;Geralt doesn&#8217;t yell!'&#8221; Cockle said, laughing a little at his own lament. &#8220;I did my best Geralt yell and we&#8217;ll let the audience decide.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;The voice is a muscle so like any athlete who trains, and trains their muscle to do certain things spectacularly\u2014not that I&#8217;m saying I&#8217;m spectacular\u2014the voice is like that\u2014&#8221; here Cockle slips into seamless Geralt-level gravel &#8220;\u2014so now Geralt really is just part of my voice and I just fall right into it. Sometimes while I&#8217;m washing the dishes.&#8221; He proceeds to do an impression of Geralt saying &#8220;Oh man I think I need to bleach this cup.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;He&#8217;s part of me now, he&#8217;s part of my vocal range,&#8221; Cockle says.<\/p>\n<p>Funnily enough, Geralt&#8217;s voice is a bit like an accent that Cockle just sort of drops into. The longer he talks about Geralt, the more he slides slowly into the register, deeper than his natural speaking voice, and eventually I&#8217;m nearly just interviewing Geralt of Rivia\u2014a talkative and friendly Geralt of Rivia.<\/p>\n<p>Sirens of the Deep premieres streaming on Netflix today as a 90 minute animated film, a spinoff adventure for Geralt and Jaskier based on one of Andrzej Sapkowski&#8217;s short stories.<\/p>\n<div class=\"product\"><a data-dimension112=\"720d9e84-185b-49f4-b4c0-0e45c8adbb39\" data-action=\"Deal Block\" data-label=\"The Witcher 4\" data-dimension48=\"The Witcher 4\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow\"><\/p>\n<figure class=\"van-image-figure \" >\n<div class='image-full-width-wrapper'>\n<div class='image-widthsetter' style=\"max-width:396px;\">\n<p class=\"vanilla-image-block\" style=\"padding-top:100.00%;\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" id=\"UiHQzGbgDWuTSBXL62v4Fd\" name=\"ciri-geralt-square\" caption=\"\" alt=\"\" src=\"https:\/\/arcader.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/doug-cockle-says-that-playing-geralt-again-is-like-slipping-into-a-warm-bath-the-voice-is-part-of-me-now-1.jpg\" mos=\"\" align=\"middle\" fullscreen=\"\" width=\"396\" height=\"396\" attribution=\"\" endorsement=\"\" credit=\"\" class=\"\"><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/figure>\n<p><\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.pcgamer.com\/will-there-be-a-witcher-4-heres-what-we-know\/\" target=\"_blank\" data-dimension112=\"720d9e84-185b-49f4-b4c0-0e45c8adbb39\" data-action=\"Deal Block\" data-label=\"The Witcher 4\" data-dimension48=\"The Witcher 4\" data-dimension25=\"\"><strong>The Witcher 4<\/strong><\/a>: What we know about Ciri&#8217;s story<br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/www.pcgamer.com\/the-best-witcher-3-mods\/\" target=\"_blank\"><strong>Witcher 3 mods<\/strong><\/a>: Good hunting<br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/www.pcgamer.com\/the-witcher-books\/\" target=\"_blank\"><strong>The Witcher books<\/strong><\/a>: Where to start<br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/www.pcgamer.com\/witcher-3-console-commands-cheats\/\" target=\"_blank\"><strong>Witcher 3 console commands<\/strong><\/a>: Cheat death<br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/www.pcgamer.com\/movies-tv\/the-witcher-season-4-netflix\" target=\"_blank\"><strong>The Witcher season 4<\/strong><\/a>: Hemsworth&#8217;s debut<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/article>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.pcgamer.com\/movies-tv\/doug-cockle-says-that-playing-geralt-again-is-like-slipping-into-a-warm-bath-the-voice-is-part-of-me-now\/\">Source<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Doug Cockle is your favorite Geralt&#8217;s favorite Geralt.
