Welcome to my longest dub creation EVER! This dub is the SECOND casting call for
Hickman's X-Men run titled "House of X / Powers of X" (12 ISSUES)
Story Summary: Professor X, Magneto, and Moira unite mutants on Krakoa after learning mutants always face extinction across every timeline. As humanity and machines move toward inevitable war, the X-Men fight to break the cycle through resurrection, political power, and mutant unity.
This dub will be featured on my youtube channel: https://www.youtube.com/@SpokenWorIds
And will consist of 12 ISSUES to cover the entire miniseries. Check out a full breakdown of the series here: https://www.howtolovecomics.com/2019/08/19/house-of-x-powers-of-x-reading-order/
AUDITION EXPECTATIONS:
Send your takes in AABBCC format.
An XLR mic is preferred, as this project aims for high-quality comic dubs. Strong performances may outweigh minor mic issues however.
Major issues like echo and muffled audio are not acceptable. Feel free to process your audio — EQ, cleanup, whatever helps you sound your best.
PROJECT EXPECTATIONS:
This casting call covers PART 2 of this story's vast amount of characters
If cast, please be ready to submit lines quickly — production moves fast.
Communication matters. If delays come up, keep me updated.
Be open to retakes if needed. No full script will be provided; actors will read directly from the comic pages featuring their character. So try your best not to miss lines.
This final casting call should fill out the remaining roster of cameo appearances and smaller supporting roles. There currently exists NO MAIN CHARACTER roles.

Currently, we still have the following roles available:
Beast
Husk
Archangel
Mother Mold
Attorney General Tolliver
Forge
Female Librarian
I am also seeking an AUDIO ENGINEER to assist with creating a "robotic voice effect" for the character of Nimrod. All lines have been read - just need someone who knows how to create a good robot voice effect!
-Atticus
Sebastian Shaw
Exodus
Two new roles have been added! They both have very short cameos with limited dialogue.
This scene is featured in a military court proceeding involving Sabretooth.
The first two lines involve A.G Tolliver explaining to the Judge of what the case entails.
The final line marks Emma Frost's arrival as she comes to escort Sabretooth back to Krakoa. She strongly opposes his participation in a human court trial. A.G. Tolliver is attempting to stop her.
Seeking a military sounding voice; she should sound icy and authoritative.
"What we lack in volume we're making up for in depravity, your Honor."
"The defendant is being charged with felony breaking and entering, felony assault, felony theft, two counts of manslaughter and -- I swear to God -- if bad manners were something I could add to the list, I would."
(holding Emma Frost at gun point) "NO. This is not how today ends. Not on my watch."

1 line in HOUSE OF X ISSUE 3
SCENE CONTEXT: Husk is part of the X-Men strike team preparing to attack the Orchis facility building Master Mold. Her line comes after Cyclops announces they won't bring any Krakoan flora—specifically the teleportation flowers—prompting Husk and several others to question the decision.
Voice direction: Down-to-earth, practical, and straightforward delivery
"Yeah. Call me crazy, but it seems like a good idea -- having an emergency way home."
Short scene! The X-men are making efforts to destroy/stop Mother Mold as her destruction could positively impact the future.
Seeking a FEMALE robotic voice but please sound comprehensible. Less is more! Voice modification is fine.
Updated: 06/25/26
"If man ... If man made me, then they are God. And you are titans, their spoiled lineage ..."
"But while you war, we children sit in judgment of those above us ... We judge and find you both wanting."
"Do you hear us, Olympus? We have stolen your fire ...and with it, we will burn you all."
Read all about Forge here: https://marvel.fandom.com/wiki/Forge_(Earth-616)
He's a Native American mutant who can intuitively understand and design technology.
Looking for a light texan accent or an indigenous accent (native american).
Voice reference: https://youtu.be/KnhqkflPX8U?t=18
Updated: 7/05/26
(In disbelief) "And now you want to use the current functionality of Cerebro -- the ability to locate any mutant on the planet -- to also copy that mutant's mind. To make a backup of a sentient being."
(matter of fact) "Unfortunately, nothing like that currently exists on this planet. As far as I can see, all that's stopping you is access to an unlimited power source and unlimited storage."
"Okay. Taking this a step further ... you want me to construct an entirely new system or integrate it into ... the existing one?"
ALSO part of the X-Men strike team preparing to attack the Orchis facility building Master Mold. His line comes after Cyclops announces they won't bring any Krakoan flora—specifically the teleportation flowers—prompting him and several others to question the decision.
Appearing only once in HOUSE OF X ISSUE 3 - 1 line
"I don't get it. Why no plants?"
Currently seeking someone who can create a convincing robotic voice effect for the character Nimrod.
Please provide a sample using any dialogue of your choice (30 seconds or less). It doesn't take long to determine if the effect is the right fit.
The character's dialogue has already been fully recorded—I only need assistance with designing and applying the robotic voice effect.
The sample you provide must be made by you using tools, software, or other means. No AI please.

*Say something you think would fit*
This is just a female version of the The Librarian.
Should sound highly educated and emotionally restrained. She should sound calm and composed, patient --
Think as if a scientis is trying to explain gravity or a historian discussing about an ancient civilization.
"So the Elder made a host machine -- an empty vessel -- and copied himself over to it before the Phalanx absorbed it."
"We just confirmed that he was in there somewhere."
"The Phalanx are the forerunners of a galactic empire that we believe has dominion over the entirety of the known universe."
Tone should be Educated, warm, composed.
Think "respected university professor"
Scene Context: Prof. X has just asked if they are "ready". And Beast is responding with a status update. They are attempting to establish a telepathic communication to space where the X-men have gone for thier mission.
Appears once in HOUSE OF X ISSUE 4 - only 5 lines
"We are, Professor. Trinary is pooling all observable data from human resources: Arecibo, a few re-tasked SETI radio telescopes and the Dyson solar observatory ..."
"...and while that still leaves us a good eight light-minutes behind, we fortunately have someone on hand who can extrapolate that data into an actionable forecast."
"Thank you, sir. It's easily my third-best feature."
This is a short role that appears in Powers of X Issue 3
This is the role of a cult priest who is making an announcement amongst his assembly in the Church of Ascendancy. This is a cult residing in the 100-year-future timeline and serves as the primary place of worship and headquarters for where people worship machines.
Looking for an ancient sounding gravelly voice.
Voice reference: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bJAygIzAMHc&t=22s
Updated: 07/08/26
(Loud like you're speaking to a hundred people outside) "All humans are slaves. It's only when we embrace our fallen nature and accept their dominance that one can truly understand the message of our masters. HEAR THEIR WORDS!"
"This is what real worship has taught us: Better to serve in heaven than rule in human hell."
The daughter of the Master of Magnetism!
Read all about her here: https://marvel.fandom.com/wiki/Lorna_Dane_(Earth-616)
Scene: Lorna (Polaris) is speaking with her father, Magneto about humanity's current mindset. Magneto goes on to explain Krakoa's resurrection protocols and the complex process behind them.
"Humans. Is there any good in them?"
"Here's what I don't get, Father: Isn't it just their bodies? Temporally evolved to their desired age -- perhaps even to their optimal and perfected form -- but it's not them, is it?"
"It's just a shell."
Read all about this living embodiment of the mutant homeland here: https://marvel.fandom.com/wiki/Krakoa_(Moira_9)
This "being" is Krakoa's humanoid form 100 years into the future. Krakoa is using "Cypher's" body has a conduit for its existence.
Seeking a deep voice that sounds ancient. Think Swamp Thing!
"Not long. Thanks to our earlier sacrifice, I know exactly where to look in the archives to find out when Nimrod came online."
"GOT IT! We can go."
"This body once belonged to a mutant who could communicate with anything. I maintain all that he was though he has long left this existence. We will find a way."
The Librarian is a post-human who serves as a philosopher, historian and representative of post-human civilization
Need an old man sounding voice for this!
"I am the first of elders. And this, my seer- self. We are ready for conversion. We hope for ascension."
"We have to try, don't we? Isn't that what's next? The idea of your great union existing just beyond our reach is something we cannot tolerate."
She is the White Queen of the Hellfire club. Read all about her here: https://marvel.fandom.com/wiki/Emma_Frost_(Earth-616)
In this scene, Emma is being recruited by Magneto and Charles to begin their development of Krakoa
Voice reference: Lena Headey as Cersei Lannister (Game of Thrones)
Voice reference link: https://youtu.be/k1L8SFLCyVY?t=45
"You can stop skulking around. It's unbecoming. And, frankly, you haven't been subtle enough for that kind of work in quite some time."
"I felt you looking for me at the Canova, but this seemed a more appropriate place to meet. Why are you here, Charles?"
"This is either going to be incredibly heroic or terrifyingly reckless. Dare I ask which?"
Read all about her here: https://www.marvel.com/characters/destiny-irene-adler
Looking for an upperclass Victorian dialect! Only appears once but has an important conversation with Moira McTaggert (the main character). This scene involves Moira being held against her will as Destiny and Mystique explain her mutant ability. Destiny reveals some chilling information!
BONUS: Destiny speaks through a helmet. Strong selection opportunity if you can modify your voice to sound like you're speaking through a helmet! Although, not required.
TIP: if you do the voice modification, remember less is more!
(Gentle, patient) "Listen to me, child. My mutant name is DESTINY, and I have the power to the see future. Which is tricky with someone like you, since your mutant power is REINCARNATION."
(Tone of mixed disappointment) "Such a gift, KNOWLEDGE. And yet here you are, using it to betray your own kind."
"I have seen the potential of your good works, and I do not care for them."
Read all about her here: https://marvel.fandom.com/wiki/Monet_St._Croix_(Earth-616)
In this scene, Monet is sending Jean Grey off to safety while she decides to fend off the guards in her Penance form. Jean Grey is screaming from her pod not realizing what Monet is doing or why.
Would like a PERSON OF COLOR for this role. This character is a mix of North African and Black descent.
(stressed, in a rush tone) "We're being boarded. Come on. Escape pod in here. I'll cover your exit."
"They have to find someone here, or else they'll immediately start looking for you."
(Let out your best Penance battle cry as you tear through a group of armed guards.)
Read all about him here: https://marvel.fandom.com/wiki/Bennet_du_Paris_(Earth-616)
He serves on the Krakoan Council. He's an Omega-level telepath and telekinetic and is one of the most powerful mutants in X-Men lore.
Line 1 context: Someone is annoying Exodus
Line 2 & 3 context: Exodus is a member of the the Krakoan Quiet Council, where the members are debating Sabretooth's punishment for his earlier actions. Building on Nightcrawler's argument, Exodus weighs in as the council decides whether Sabretooth should face exile or death.
Voice Direction: Seeking a voice that has a blend of Magneto's authority & Doctor Doom's certainty. He speaks with absolute conviction and calm authority.
"Speak to me again...and you do so at your own peril."
"Still, the boy raises a good point. This place ... is an Eden to us. Life-giving. Nurturing."
"It lives -- and through it -- so do we. If there is mutant ground that is sacrosanct ... this is it. It lives -- and through it -- so do we. There is honor to be had in lifting it up."
These are his only 2 lines - very short cameo!
He is typically portrayed with an upperclass British accent
"Property rights. Wealth. Currency. A few of the things man clearly got right. I have quite a few ide --"
"I don't care. Fine. yes."
A judge facilitating the trial of Sabretooth for his actions in issue 1! We are located at Project Achilles, a superhuman supermax prison.
Any voice will do for this role for as long as its a deep, gravelly voice. This is a judge who is in his 50's/60's. He should sound seasoned in his position and lightly boisterous.
"Well, I think everyone knows how I feel about social graces ..."
"... and what about you, counselor? Do you have anything to offer on behalf of your client before we begin today's proceedings?"
"It's a good try, counselor. But unfortunately for you, we're charging your client under the government's new twelve strike rule. Which -- as you know -- supersedes intent. So, motion denied. Anything else? No? Then let's get on with it. How does your client plead?"
All about Mr Sinister: https://marvel.fandom.com/wiki/Nathaniel_Essex_(Mister_Sinister)_(Earth-616)
This version of Sinister is portrayed differently than the usual sinister, horror-inspired villain of older X-Men stories. For this role, you'll want to lean more into Sinister's ego, flamboyance, and dark humor.
Think: Genius who believes he's the smartest person who has ever lived. This version of Sinister enjoys hearing himself talk.
Voice reference: A less serious version of Loki or a scientist who thinks he's the main character
"Psst! ITS ME! The Sinister with the mutant gene. And if you must know, my mutant power is overthrowing tyrants and being absolutely fabulous."
"So ... we're in this together. I love the ambition. I love every bit of it."
"So, tell me, partners, what's next for our sinful, secret confederacy?"
(Stammering, nervous) "J-j-just one thing, your Honor. Uh, a motion t-to dismiss based on the fact that my client W-w-was an unwilling accomplice and had no idea w-what his companions' intents were."
(Stammering, nervous)"W-w-we'd argue you've got th-the wrong man."
(Stammering, nervous) "W-w-what? w-what's that m-m-mean?"
Read all about him here: https://marvel.fandom.com/wiki/Kuan-Yin_Xorn_(Earth-616)
This is a monk-like mutant who speaks with patience, wisdom and quiet conviction. Need a voice that feels thoughtful, spiritual and grounded.
Light/subtle voice modification is encouraged! It should be 95% natural voice and 5% processing at best!
Voice references:
Uncle Iroh from Avatar (the wisdom)
The Ancient One from Doctor Strange (the spiritual calm)
Vision from Marvel (the thoughtful precision)
Tip: Do your best to not sound monotone! You can still sound grounded without sounding monotone!
Updated: 06/24/26
"Finally, sweet annihilation. I have waited so long for this day to arrive."
"See? This is all that really matters -- that we leave behind something that resonates long after our passing."
"For most there is nothing. Just the pointless march toward oblivion. It's eat, sleep, fight, die, just as it has always been and always shall be, until the sun swallows us all."
Short role where Storm is announcing the new "resurrectees" from the Krakoan pods!
Read these lines as if its a historic announcement. Looking for a Kenyan or similar African accent.
(announcer tone) "Brothers and sisters of Krakoa!"
(announcer tone) "A great thing has happened today. A miracle made possible by mutant hands ..."
"... the great work of the five. Love them ...... for they have righted the wrongs of man and defeated our great enemy death."
Read all about them here: https://marvel.fandom.com/wiki/Phalanx
This is an artifical intelligence and has a small role in primarily the powers of X storyline.
For the voice you want to think collective consciousness, emotionless, calm and perhaps having multiple voices layered together.
Voice reference: The Borg Queen (star trek), Ultron (if he never got emotional)
Voice modification is encouraged for this role!
"THEY-FOUGHT- FOR-SOVEREIGNTY- AND-LOST-BUT-WE- [PHALANX]-SAW-THE- WHISPERING-GODS- BEHIND-IT. WE-[PHALANX]- HAVE-HEARD-YOUR- MESSAGE-NOW- HEAR-OURS, WHAT- DO-YOU- SEEK"
"WE-[PHALANX]- CARE-LITTLE- FOR-HOPE. WILL-YOU- ASCEND"
"AWAIT- RESPONSE AWAIT- ANSWER"
All about Namor: https://marvel.fandom.com/wiki/Namor_McKenzie_(Earth-616)
The King of Atlantis and Charles Xaxier discuss Charles' plans for Krakoa. Prof X makes a move to recruit Namor.
"The good ... the evil ... And those beyond such quaint descriptors."
"It's kind of you to ask. But if I'm comprehending the real reason you're doing this, it's because you've finally realized that you are not them ...
"... and that they will never accept you or love you -- not because you don't deserve it -- but because they envy you. They hate your SUPERIORITY. And they ALWAYS WILL."
Seeking a gravelly and deep voice! He is a "Friend" to the x-men in this story working together against Nimrod and his machines.
This voice should have gravitas as if every word he speaks is important. No voice reference -- give it your best shot!
Highy encourage a good sounding mic without echo.
BONUS: You may introduce some MINOR voice modification like it was done in Xmen Apocalypse movie. Strong chance of being selected if this is done well! Remember, less is more!
"I am older than even the idea of machines. In that time, I have changed ... but the smell of Thebes never has. There is death here."
"Give me your eyes, children."
"For this, I would have sacrificed all of you. It means THAT MUCH."
