Who were the voice actors in the Famous Studios Popeye cartoons and are they still alive today?
Jack Mercer did the voices of Popeye, Wimpy, Poopdeck Pappy, and some minor characters. Mae Questel voiced Olive Oyl, Swee’Pea, and some children and background female characters. Jackson Beck was Bluto, Pierre, the sheik, the lifeguard, etc. He was also the narrator in cartoons which used one, and voiced some minor characters as well. Jackson Beck, the last living “voice,” died in 2004. So, none are alive today.
