Matt McKenzie is an actor best known for his voicework in games and movies. He is the voice of Auron in the popular RPG games Final Fantasy X, Final Fantasy X-2, and Kingdom Hearts II. He also provided the English voice of Borgoff in the movie Vampire Hunter D: Bloodlust, Ptolemy in Reign: The Conqueror, and Major Elliot in the animated movie Final Fantasy: The Spirits Within. McKenzie has also guest starred in some well known movies (Gods and Monsters with Sir Ian McKellen) and TV shows such as Star Trek: Voyager, Jag, 7th Heaven, That 70's Show, The O.C. and recently 24 as Agent Hollister. He even had a cameo role in Clint Eastwood's The Rookie as Inspector Wang. More recently, he appeared in an episode of House M.D. as Doctor Fedler, where he talks briefly with Robert Chase about the Beatles.

McKenzie is often typecast as grumpy or serious due to his somewhat 'gruff' voice. He appeared in theater productions performed in the Pacific Resident Theatre, the Old Globe Theatre and the Notre Dame Theatre. Some of his highlight shows have been Anna Christie, Scotland Road, Barbarians, and An Ideal Wife.
