The villains of Voltron: Legendary Defender

June 9, 2016 by Amie Cranswick

Ahead of its premiere tomorrow, Netflix and DreamWorks have shared details of the villains for Voltron: Legendary Defender; check them out here…

EMPEROR ZARKON – voiced by Neil Kaplan (“Power Rangers,” “Naruto”)

Emperor Zarkon is the ruthless leader of the Galra Empire. 10,000 years ago, Zarkon fought to steal the Voltron lions from King Alfor. Ever since Alfor sent the lions to the far corners of the universe, Zarkon has been on a quest to obtain Voltron once and for all.

HAGGAR – voiced by Cree Summer (“Marvel’s Guardians of the Galaxy,” “Dawn of the Croods”)

Haggar is an ageless, psychic witch and a loyal advisor to Zarkon. Over the years she has formed a coven of druids, her own order of followers to do her bidding and aid her evil plans. Together they create the Robeasts to battle Voltron.

COMMANDER SENDAK – voiced by Jake Eberle

Sendak is a cold-blooded fighter and Zarkon’s number one military leader. He lost his arm during his time on the front lines and has had it replaced with a robot appendage featuring a nasty claw and a laser blaster. He will do anything he can to defeat Voltron and earn Zarkon’s respect.

The Netflix original series DreamWorks Voltron Legendary Defender reimagines one of the most popular fan-favorite shows of all time in this all-new comedic action-packed show from executive producer Joaquim Dos Santos (The Legend of Korra, Avatar: The Last Airbender) and co-executive producer Lauren Montgomery (The Legend of Korra).

Five unsuspecting teenagers, transported from Earth into the middle of a sprawling intergalactic war, become pilots for five robotic lions in the battle to protect the universe from evil. Only through the true power of teamwork can they unite to form the mighty warrior known as Voltron.

Voltron: Legendary Defender will debut on June 10th, and features a voice cast that includes Tyler Labine, Josh Keaton, Jeremy Shada, Neil Kaplan, Cree Summer, Bex Taylor-Klaus, Kimberly Brooks, Rhys Darby and Steven Yeun.
