Jay Hernandez

Birth Date: 20/02/1978

A first-generation Mexican-American performer from Montebello, California, Hernandez built his name through roles in Hostel, Suicide Squad, and five seasons leading Magnum P.I. on CBS and NBC. His voice work spans Pixar and DC animation. Best known for Bonnie's Dad in Toy Story 4, Yohualli in Aztec Batman: Clash of Empires, and a self-voiced cameo in BoJack Horseman.

Jay Hernandez’s Voice Work Within a Live-Action Career

Most people recognize the name Jay Hernandez from five seasons of Magnum P.I. or from his turn as El Diablo in Suicide Squad – but the first-generation Mexican-American actor has quietly accumulated a handful of animated and voice credits alongside his on-screen work. His voice acting output is small, deliberate, and entirely verified.

Toy Story 4 and the Pixar Connection

The most widely seen voice credit on Hernandez’s resume is Bonnie’s Dad – also credited as Mr. Anderson – in the 2019 Pixar feature Toy Story 4. The role placed him inside one of the most commercially successful animated franchises in history, even if the part itself is a supporting one. It remains the most high-profile animation work he has done to date.

BoJack Horseman and Aztec Batman

In 2019, Hernandez appeared as himself in a single episode of the Netflix animated series BoJack Horseman – a show known for casting real celebrities in fictionalized versions of themselves. Later, in 2025, he took on the role of Yohualli in Aztec Batman: Clash of Empires, providing the English-language voice for the animated feature. That project expanded his animated footprint into superhero territory, fitting neatly alongside his earlier live-action work in Suicide Squad.
