A.J. LoCascio (born 11 July 1987) is an American actor and director. He is known for his roles as Prince Lotor in Voltron: Legendary Defender and Marty McFly in Back to the Future: The Game.

Early life

LoCascio grew up in New Jersey before moving to New York City where he attended the School of Visual Arts. He is the older brother of Jamison LoCascio, a film director and founder of the production company, FilmValor.

Career

In an interview for the release of Back to the Future: The Game, LoCascio said that as a kid people used to say that he sounded like Marty McFly from Back to the Future. Since Michael J. Fox was unavailable to voice Marty (although he voiced Willie McFly and Future Marty in the episode "Outatime"), LoCascio auditioned for the part and got it.

He has performed as a voice actor on other projects, along with directing, producing and working in the costume and wardrobe department. He was the co-host of the pilot of a nostalgia-heavy talk show called Yesterday Tonight.

LoCascio also starred in a Minecraft web series called Seedlings as the main character, Mark.

He voiced Emmet Brickowski in the Legoland 4D short subject The Lego Movie: 4D – A New Adventure. This was because Chris Pratt was unavailable at that time.

LoCascio voiced Prince Lotor (son of Emperor Zarkon) and James Griffin on Voltron: Legendary Defender.
