Brian Drummond

Brian Drummond voiced Vegeta throughout the Ocean Group's English dub of Dragon Ball Z, creating a performance that defined the Saiyan prince for an entire generation of North American fans. His delivery captures Vegeta's arrogance and menacing power, with particular recognition for the famous mistranslated "It's Over 9000!" line, originally intended to reference power levels but became the franchise's most iconic dub moment. Drummond also voiced other characters in the Ocean dub, including Pikkon, Yajirobe, and Fortuneteller Baba. He later reprised the role for Duplicate Vegeta in the Funimation dub of Dragon Ball Super.

Drummond is a graduate of Studio 58 in Vancouver and has maintained a long career as both a theater actor and voice performer based in British Columbia. His work spans anime roles in Gundam Wing, Death Note, InuYasha, and Mobile Suit Gundam SEED, alongside various other animated and live-action projects. His Vegeta lines have become legendary in fan culture, spawning numerous memes and references.
