Natalie Morales’s Voice Work Across Animation and Film
Most audiences know Natalie Morales from her work in live-action television, but her animation credits tell a different story – one built quietly across some of the most recognizable properties in modern entertainment. The Miami-raised actress of Cuban descent crossed into voice work naturally, landing roles in projects that range from Oscar-winning theatrical releases to beloved cartoon reboots. Her voice career sits alongside a live-action resume that spans over two decades, making her one of the more quietly active crossover performers working today.
Most Known Roles of Natalie Morales

- Lois Lane – Harley Quinn (2019-2025, TV Series)
- Yolanda Buenaventura – BoJack Horseman (2014, TV Series)
- Mrs. Perez – Solar Opposites (2020, TV Series)
- Newscaster – Rio 2 (2014)
Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse and the Push Into Animation
Landing a role in Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse was a significant turning point. The 2018 Sony Pictures Animation film went on to win the Academy Award for Best Animated Feature and is widely regarded as a landmark in the genre. Morales voiced Miss Calleros in the film, a small but memorable role that placed her inside one of the decade’s most celebrated animated projects. That credit opened the door to more consistent animation work – by 2019 she was voicing Lois Lane in the DC animated series Harley Quinn, a role she held across multiple seasons through 2025. The 2021 Rugrats revival then handed her a recurring lead in Betty DeVille, a character with new dimension in the reboot as an openly queer parent. Morales spoke publicly about how meaningful that aspect of the character was to her, noting that representation in children’s animation carries real weight for young audiences watching at home.
The Harley Quinn Series and Lois Lane
Taking on Lois Lane in the Harley Quinn animated series gave Morales room to work within DC’s most iconic supporting cast. The show’s irreverent tone and sharp writing attracted strong performances from its ensemble, and Morales appeared across eight episodes between 2019 and 2025. Playing Lane in an adult animated context is a different challenge than the character’s more traditional portrayals – the series leaned into comedy and subversion, and Morales held her own alongside a stacked voice cast. It remains one of the longer-running animation gigs in her career and adds a notable DC credit to a filmography that already includes a Marvel theatrical release.
