She is widely recognised for her roles in award-winning television series,\u00a0<i>House Husbands, Offspring<\/i>\u00a0and\u00a0<i>Twentysomething<\/i>. Her career began on stage at the age of seven. Her grandparents, Estelle and Douglas de Niese, were famous duettists in Sri Lanka and are well known in both the Sri Lankan and Australian choral communities. Leah&#8217;s father, Alan de Niese, is a rich bass baritone and presenter of\u00a0<i>Wednesday Night at the Opera<\/i>\u00a0on the highly reputed, Melbourne classical radio station, 3MBSFM. Following in these musical footsteps, Leah advanced in classical cello at a young age, but it was acting that won out in the end.

color: #000000;\">The sequel\u2019s new tank-class hero, Odessa \u2018Dez\u2019 Stone (aka Junker Queen), is one of the latest to join their ranks. Armed with an axe called \u2018Carnage\u2019 and a knife named \u2018Gracie\u2019, Blizzard describes Junker Queen as a \u2018tough, almost brutal, personality.\u2019 But the voice behind her couldn\u2019t be more diametrically opposed.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 16px; color: #000000;\">Bringing the ruler of Junkertown to life is Australian-Sri Lankan actress,\u00a0<strong>Leah de Niese<\/strong>. de Niese smiles as she recounts meeting some of the Blizzard team for the first time, saying: \u2018They were like, \u201cOh, your normal voice is very different to the Queen.\u201d I like to think that I keep my aggression behind closed doors in real life!\u2019<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 16px; color: #000000;\">Perhaps best known to Australian television audiences as Nicola from\u00a0<em><a style=\"color: #000000;\" href=\"https:\/\/www.imdb.com\/title\/tt2402807\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">House Husbands<\/a>\u00a0<\/em>or Odile from\u00a0<em><a style=\"color: #000000;\" href=\"https:\/\/www.imdb.com\/title\/tt1530541\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Offspring<\/a><\/em>, de Niese actually started her professional career at age seven \u2014\u00a0as one of the Munchkins in a production of\u00a0<em>The Wizard of Oz<\/em>. Despite her long and varied career,\u00a0<em>Overwatch 2<\/em>\u00a0marks not only her first video game role, but also her first voice acting role.

I think that\u2019s part of what helped me \u2026 Our amazing casting director Andrea [Toyias] loves to tell me that it was, in fact, seeing me physically step into this epic character that helped her see me as the Queen.\u2019<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 16px; color: #000000;\">When de Niese later found out what she was auditioning for, she was \u2018straight on the internet.\u2019<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 16px; color: #000000;\">\u2018It was a jaw-drop moment of, \u201cOh\u2026 this is one of the biggest games in the world\u201d. So that was overwhelming. And exciting. But I think it worked in my favour not being too ensconced in the world already\u2019, she muses.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 16px; color: #000000;\">The audition process was long. As de Niese explains, \u2018[Blizzard] are very focused on getting the right actors voicing these characters \u2013 there\u2019s real care taken. It was extended over about six months and I had several callbacks.\u2019<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 16px; color: #000000;\">While a \u2018nerve-wracking\u2019 affair, de Niese recognises how important it was, saying: \u2018Once it came to officially being offered, I\u2019d really found my idea of what this character journey was going to be\u2019.<\/span><\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_102106\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-102106\" style=\"width: 600px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-102106 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/websitedesigns.com.au\/elankanew\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/Blizzard-Entertainment-e1666106168958.webp\" alt=\"The voice of Junker Queen on life before and after Overwatch 2\" width=\"600\" height=\"338\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-102106\" class=\"wp-caption-text\"><span style=\"font-size: 16px; color: #000000;\">Image: Blizzard Entertainment<\/span><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 16px; color: #000000;\">When it then came time to jump into the studio as Junker Queen, de Niese chose to own her lack of experience and turn to the team for direction. \u2018It was really important for me to be straight-up and say, \u201cHey, I\u2019m a newbie, guide me on this,\u201d\u2018 she says. \u2018I was nervous because I wasn\u2019t as confident in the gaming world\u2019, she recalls. \u2018The team at Blizzard were truly unbelievable. From the get-go, it was very nurturing and very important to have both of our voices heard.\u2019<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 16px; color: #000000;\">However, de Niese soon found herself becoming an invaluable resource to the team themselves \u2014 especially in regards to making Junker Queen as authentically Aussie as possible. \u2018Being able to shift the language to reflect Australian-isms was really important and they were very welcoming of that\u2019, she describes. \u2018It is scary though because suddenly you have the weight of Australia on your shoulders!\u2019<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 16px; color: #000000;\">A new audience following de Niese on social media has noted how energising it\u2019s been to see the gaming world through fresh eyes. In a way, the\u00a0<em>Overwatch<\/em>\u00a0<em>2<\/em>\u00a0community has had a chance to rekindle their love for the universe again \u2014 helpful, given the six-year gap between the first title and this one, and\u00a0<a style=\"color: #000000;\" href=\"https:\/\/www.gameshub.com\/news\/features\/the-activision-blizzard-lawsuit-explained-1843\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">everything that\u2019s happened in between<\/a>.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Overwatch Animated Short | \u201cThe Wastelander\u201d [4K]\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/8-nXN9ZMl8o\" width=\"600\" height=\"478\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\"><span data-mce-type=\"bookmark\" style=\"display: inline-block; width: 0px; overflow: hidden; line-height: 0;\" class=\"mce_SELRES_start\">\ufeff<\/span><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 16px; color: #000000;\">For de Niese, this seems to be a genuine joy: \u2018I love that I can be this fresh set of eyes coming in and helping the community rediscover how exciting and important this game is.\u2019<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 16px; color: #000000;\">We can expect to hear more of de Niese and Junker Queen as Blizzard continue to flesh out the characters and story world. When asked if she now has any advice for aspiring voice actors, she enthuses, \u2018Go for it! Find out what you can about the different ways in \u2014 obviously, there\u2019s a path through finding an agent. Play with your voice as well. That\u2019s part of what I\u2019ve done throughout my whole career: putting on silly voices and pulling faces in the mirror. Learn vocal training.
