BiographyTony Jay (2 February 1933 – 13 August 2006) was a British actor. A former member of the Royal Shakespeare Company, he was known for his voice work in radio, animation, film, and video games. Jay was particularly noted for his distinctive raspy baritone voice, which often led to him being cast in villainous or authoritative roles. His voice acting roles included Judge Claude Frollo in Disney's The Hunchback of Notre Dame (1996), Megabyte in ReBoot (1994–2001), Shere Khan in The Jungle Book 2 (replacing George Sanders, who played the character in the original film), as well as the TV series TaleSpin, the Elder God (plus various other roles) in the Legacy of Kain series of video games and Dr. Lipschitz in Rugrats.

Jay also made many distinguished on-screen appearances, including the role of Nigel St John on Lois and Clark: The New Adventures of Superman (1993–1995). He further made guest appearances on programs including The Golden Girls in 1987, the villainous Paracelsus in the Beauty and the Beast TV series (1987–1990), Twin Peaks in 1990 to 1991, and Night Court in 1991. Jay also portrayed Professor Werner in Twins (1988), the father figure/mentor to Arnold Schwarzenegger's character, Julius Benedict.
