De Lancie has also made many appearances in both film and television, including such television roles as the devastated father Donald Margolis on Breaking Bad, Colonel Frank Simmons on Stargate SG-1, and Agent Allen Shapiro from the Doctor Who spin-off, Torchwood: Mircale Day; his film credits includes roles in the Curtis Hanson-directed thriller The Hand That Rocks the Cradle, Terry Gilliam’s The Fisher King, and Reign Over Me.

De Lancie’s acting talents have also been on display as a voice over artist, voicing characters in the long runningAssassin’s Creed franchise, Agent Darkbootie on Invader ZIM, and, of course, the Draconequus so many Bronies know and love, Discord from My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic.
In 2012, de Lancie produced and hosted the groundbreaking documentary, Bronies: The Extremely Unexpected Adult Fans of My Little Pony. Funded entirely through a Kickstarter campaign, the project became the second highest project on the crowd sourcing platform at the time of its campaign.
John de Lancie can next be seen in the feature film comedy Mind Puppets, also starring Vinnie Jones, Kevin Pollack and Esme Bianco.

BronyCAN

As we enter our third year, BronyCAN continues to introduce new show guests to the convention scene as we introduce veteran voice actress Ellen Kennedy, voice of the Mane-iac and Chimera in Season 4 to our audience this year. However, we are just as happy to welcome the return of familiar faces and voices, particularly singer and actress Rebecca Shoichet! Join us on August 21-23 in Richmond, British Columbia to welcome these talented guests to BronyCAN!

Every time you watch an episode of My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic, you hear the voice of Rebecca Shoichet singing the show's opening theme song. She is the singing voice for everyone's favourite pony princess, Twilight Sparkle! You may also know her as the recently reformed villain, Sunset Shimmer, in Equestria Girls and Rainbow Rocks. And she recently voiced two NEW pony characters, Sugar Belle and Night Glider, in the season 5 premier of MLP: FiM. Some other fave credits of Rebecca's are Willi in Maya the Bee, Lorne in Kid vs. Kat, Agent Abigail Brand in Astonishing X-Men, Nana Osaka in the English dubbing of Nana and a few other super-sweet, up-coming roles that she's not allowed to talk about yet! Besides in-studio work, Rebecca also sings live with bands Soulstream, Side One and Mimosa. And has toured with pop/rock artists Tom Cochrane and Amanda Marshall. Rebecca is stoked to be a part of the MLP family and can't wait to meet you all here at BronyCAN!!!

Ellen has been a voice performer since the early 1990’s. Her voice can be heard in hundreds of episodes of pre-lay series, and dubbing for anime. Some favorite characters along the way have been Mrs. Pteranodon in Dinosaur Train, Brainy Barker in Krypto The Superdog, Kyoko Otonashi in Maison Ikkoku, Cappy in Hamtaro, and, of course, her guest characters in My Little Pony. In Season 4, she voiced Mane-iac and Chimera, and in Season 5, a yet unannounced character! In addition to voice work, Ellen also performs regularly doing live improv, singing at special events as well as some theatre, film and TV work. She lives with her husband in Vancouver, BC.

  6. Kelly Sheridan's agent must have under-priced her if all of these conventions are able to host her.
