Joey Naber’s Career Across Screen and Studio

A Los Angeles native with nearly four decades of credits, Joey Naber has built a career that moves fluidly between on-camera roles and voice work. His screen appearances span high-profile Hollywood productions – Executive Decision (1996), The Siege (1998), and Three Kings (1999) – while his work behind the microphone has quietly earned him a place in some of gaming’s most recognizable franchises. That dual track, rare in the industry, gives Naber a practical credibility that shapes how he approaches every character he voices.

Black Adam, Shazam, and the Injustice Series

Landing two opposing characters in the same fighting game is no small ask – Injustice: Gods Among Us required Naber to voice both Black Adam and Shazam, figures whose power sets and personalities sit at opposite ends of the DC spectrum. The dual casting spoke to his range, and when Injustice 2 arrived in 2017, he returned to reprise Black Adam, cementing the role as one of his signature contributions to video game voice work. The Injustice games drew massive audiences and became reference points for superhero game storytelling, making Naber’s performances part of a widely-discussed chapter in DC gaming history.

Indiana Jones and the Great Circle

Stepping into the Indiana Jones universe with the 2024 title Indiana Jones and the Great Circle, Naber voiced Dr. Kafour – a supporting character woven into the game’s globe-spanning narrative. The project, developed by MachineGames and published by Bethesda, was one of the most anticipated adventure titles of the year, and it added a major franchise to Naber’s already wide-ranging portfolio. His background in on-camera acting in Middle Eastern and international settings made him a natural fit for the material.

ADR Languages and Industry Mentorship

Outside of individual performance credits, Naber founded the Facebook community ADR Languages and launched the accompanying platform ADRLanguages.com, creating a networking and mentorship space for voice-over artists at all career stages. The initiative reflects a sustained commitment to the broader voice-over community – not just performing, but actively lowering the barrier for those trying to break in. That kind of behind-the-scenes contribution rarely shows up in a filmography, but it shapes the culture of the industry in ways that individual credits cannot.
