Walter Alexis Lang (born November 12, 1970), better known as Lex Lang, is an American voice actor, musician, singer, and co-founder of Love Planet Records. He is notable for playing Dr. Neo Cortex in Crash Twinsanity and Crash Tag Team Racing, Ecliptor in Power Rangers: In Space, the Wolf Duke Org Zen-Aku in Power Rangers: Wild Force and Captain Cold in Justice League Unlimited. He is also known for his work playing roles such as Sagara Sanosuke from Rurouni Kenshin, Kazuma Kuwabara in the first movie of Yu Yu Hakusho, Goemon Ishikawa XIII in Geneon's dub of Lupin III part two, and Crim from .hack//SIGN. Lex also voices Magoichi Saika in the video game Samurai Warriors, although he along with the rest of the English voice cast are uncredited. He also is the announcer in Martin Short's talk show, Primetime Glick.

Bizarrely, Lang is the surname of Lana Lang, Superman's high school sweetheart.
