LRM Online’s Gig Patta spoke with actor Lee Majdoub about the evolution of Agent Stone’s relationship with Dr. Robotnik, his admiration of work with Jim Carrey, and acting with the animated hedgehogs who are not there on the production set.
Lee Majdoub is a Lebanese-born actor who started with a small on-screen role in the 2007 series Bionic Woman. He continued to appear in guest roles with Arrow, Once Upon a Time, Unreal, and Supernatural. He worked with horror directors Jen and Sylvia Soska in the cult horror film See No Evil 2 and again for a short segment for ABCs of Death 2. In 2017, he appeared in the second season of Dirk Gently’s Holistic Detective Agency as Silas Dengdamor. Then he earned recurring roles in You Me Her and The 100—both of which were recognized in the Leo Awards. Then he was cast in the live-action Sonic the Hedgehog in 2018 and never looked back since. On the voice acting side, he voiced Basim Ibn Ishaq, the protagonist of Assassin’s Creed Mirage. Other video games under his credit included The Fall, Need for Speed: Payback, The Fall Part 2: Unbound, and Dragalia Lost.
Sonic the Hedgehog 3 is in theaters nationwide on Friday, December 20.
