Behind the scenes[]

In localized versions of Fallout games, Perlman's voice for the cutscene narrations has been dubbed by various actors. For both Fallout 3 and Fallout: New Vegas, his voice was dubbed by François Siener (French) and Pepe Mediavilla (Spanish). For Fallout 4, Perlman's role as the newscaster was instead dubbed by Bruno Dubernat in French. For Fallout 76, Perlman's Spanish dub was performed by Adolfo Pastor, replacing Mediavilla, who died in April 2018.
