Biography

Enfance
Marc Cassot naît à Paris. Après un CAP d'électromécanicien, il enchaîne de nombreux métiers. Engagé dans l'opérette Ça va, papa en 1941 au théâtre des Nouveautés en tant que figurant chanteur, il finit par remplacer un des comédiens et décide alors de suivre les cours d'Henri Rollan. Il entre par la suite à l'Institut des hautes études cinématographiques (IDHEC).


Carrière
À partir des années 1950, Marc Cassot mène une intense activité de doublage, prêtant notamment sa voix à Tyrone Power, Paul Newman, Richard Harris, William Holden, Christopher Lee (dans la série des Fu Manchu), Stephen Boyd (Messala dans Ben-Hur), ainsi que plus récemment aux personnages d'Albus Dumbledore (Richard Harris puis Michael Gambon) dans la série des Harry Potter et de Bilbon Sacquet âgé (Ian Holm) dans Le Seigneur des anneaux et Le Hobbit. Sa voix reste d'ailleurs fortement associée au personnage de Dumbledore.

Il participe également aux voix dans La Classe américaine (1993) de Michel Hazanavicius.

Le 26 avril 2014, son nom est donné à une salle à Autignac, petit village de l'Hérault où naquit son père en 1898 et où reposent sa mère et sa sœur.

Marc Cassot meurt le 21 janvier 2016 à Paris à l'âge de 92 ans.


Vie privée
Il épouse en 1947 Janine dite Pepita Jimenez (1924-2013), qui joue avec lui dans Les Copains du dimanche (1956) et double, la même année, l'actrice Lita Baron dans Crépuscule sanglant.

Marc Cassot était le second doyen des comédiens de doublage (il travailla jusqu'à ses 92 ans), juste derrière Marie Francey (qui a exercé jusqu'à l'âge de 94 ans) et devant Lita Recio (à 91 ans sur Gloria Stuart dans Titanic).

On the verge of destruction, the Scientist uses alchemy to create nine homunculus-like rag dolls known as "Stitchpunks" using portions of his own soul via a talisman and dies upon finishing the last one.

After the decline in Atlantean culture following the sinking, Kida (Cree Summer), now Queen, and married to Milo Thatch (James Arnold Taylor), is using the heart of Atlantis to restore her city's former glory. Suddenly, Milo's comrades and Mr. Whitmore (John Mahoney) arrive in Atlantis; while their arrival is unexpected, the Atlanteans welcome their old friends. Unfortunately, they have come to inform them of mysterious creature causing trouble on the surface. They arrive in Norway and discover that the mysterious problem is actually the creature known as the Kraken, which had been attacking shipping freighters and taking their cargo to a cliffside village. At first they presume it to be an ancient Atlantean war machine gone rogue (like the Leviathan from the previous film), but they discover that the town magistrate, Edgar Volgud (Clancy Brown), seems to be controlling the Kraken. They soon learn, though, that the Kraken itself is the master, having made a deal with Volgud. When they blow up the Kraken, the man disintegrates and restores the spirit of the village.
