Shelby Young

Shelby Young is a Los Angeles-based actor with an extensive background in voice over, voice-matching, motion capture, looping/ADR and on-camera. A self-proclaimed nerd with an affinity for cats, theme parks and sushi, Shelby has amassed a large social media following by way of Tiktok, Youtube and Instagram (with 7.8 million followers/subscribers between the platforms) where she shares fun voice over videos, impressive impressions and comedy sketches. In the world of VO, Shelby might be best known for her work in the Star Wars galaxy, voicing multiple characters across their animation titles and video games, including voicing Princess Leia Organa in projects such as "LEGO Star Wars The Skywalker Saga" and multiple Disney+ series and specials including "LEGO Star Wars: Rebuild the Galaxy", "LEGO Star Wars: Summer Vacation" and "LEGO Star Wars: Terrifying Tales"! Shelby's also known by video game fans for her work as fan-favorite Yuko Nishiwaki in Persona 3 Reload, Skuld in God of War: Ragnarök and Soph Blazkowicz, whom she brought to life through both voice and movement via MoCap, in "Wolfenstein: Youngblood" as one of the first-ever playable female characters in the long-standing franchise. Shelby's resume includes other AAA franchises such as "Elder Scrolls Online", "Battlefield", "Final Fantasy" and "Dead Rising 3", where she voiced and provided MoCap for the lead role of Annie. You can currently hear Shelby recur as villain Toda-Joh and others on Disney JR's "Star Wars: Young Jedi Adventures", continuing the legacy of Batgirl in the new release of game title "DC: Dark Legion" and as the voice of Diplo Ship in Pixar's soon to be released "Elio"! Shelby's uncanny ability to mimic popular smart assistants, and her spot-on range, from classic, straight-laced automation to voices with sass and personality, has made her a go-to choice for playing digital assistants in films, TV, and video games such as "What We Do in the Shadows", "Loki", the "Borderlands" film, "The Mandalorian" and, recently, a national Taco Bell commercial alongside the iconic Paris Hilton, to name a few. When she's not working in animation and games, Shelby spends her time "stepping into the mouths" of celebrities, by voice-matching for an ever growing list of Hollywood's leading ladies (and young men) in multiple high-profile film and television projects. Shelby also has an on-camera background and is known for playing characters such as Leah from the Emmy-winning "American Horror Story", KC in the Best Picture Oscar®-nominated "The Social Network", Ruby in Universal's cult-classic teen film "Wild Child" and a 62-episode arc as Kinsey on "Days of Our Lives".
