Mario Cuitláhuac Castañeda Partida (born June 29, 1962 in Irapuato, Guanajuato, Mexico), known professionally as Mario Castañeda is a Mexican voice actor and dubbing director. When he was very young, his parents moved to Mexico City where he resides currently. He studied drama in the Andrés Soler Institute from 1979 to 1982, and in June 1983, Castañeda started to work as a voice actor in Mexican dubs of several television series including Diff'rent Strokes, The Powers of Matthew Star, and The Visitor. Castañeda has also done voice work in Japanese anime, such as Son Goku in the Latin American dub of Dragon Ball Z, as well as the dubbing voice of many actors in movies, including Jim Carrey, Jackie Chan and Bruce Willis. He was also the announcer for Boomerang in Latin America from 2001 to 2006.
