Don LaFontaine Guide, Meaning , Facts, Information and Description
Don LaFontaine (born August 26, 1940) is a famous voice-over actor. His deep voice has been used in over 4000 movie trailers and many more television adverts (notably on the Fox Network).
Don LaFontaine, nicknamed "The King of the Movie Trailers" and "The VoG (Voice of God)", is credited with creating the modern movie trailer. He is also responsible for having written many of the movie trailer clichés, such as "In a World Where...", "A one-man army...", "From the bedroom to the boardroom..." and many more.
LaFontaine voices about sixty promo sessions a week; he commands a very high salary and is now a multi-millionaire thanks to his work. He is chauffeured in his own white stretch limousine between recording studios.
Almost all cinema audiences will have heard Don’s voice. It is described as breathy, deep, sonorous and ominous. Audio Clip (MP3)
However, Don is not the only deep-basso voice actor behind the movie trailers: he is often confused with Tex Brashear, Hal Douglas, or Peter Cullen.
