Noah's Ark (2007 Film) - English-language Cast

English-language Cast

• Rob Van Paulus- God: The omnipotent being who created the world and all who reside in it. Throughout the movie, God takes notice of the fact that his religion is the only one (at the moment) to have no book to go with it; thus, he sends his angel to write the Bible. In fact, God takes more interest in the creation of the Bible than he does for the well-being of the mortals who were chosen to create the new world. Interestingly, this form of God is depicted as a man of African descent with blond hair (as opposed to most other depictions, where God is designed as a Caucasian man with white hair).
• Andrio Chavarro- Angel: God's humble aide, he is typically the one who does all of God's work (this includes unleashing the flood and stopping it). For most of the movie, he is seen writing God's book and is often asking God for advice.
• Joe Carey- Noah: An elderly man with the heart of a saint and the main protagonist (for the humans' point of view). A holy man, he and his family are chosen to be the saviors of humanity and all of the animals. He is easily sighted by his long grey and white beard, his glasses and his simple maroon clothes.
• Kay Brady- Naama: Noah's wife. Though she has been willing to stand beside Noah for years, even she has become concerned for Noah's mental health. Like Noah, she is heavily religious. During the trip to the New World, Naama has to do everything she can to ensure that her family stays together.
• Andrio Chavarro- Japeth: Noah's middle child. He is distinguished by his brown hair and his fairly light-colored clothes.
• Oscar Cheda- Shem: The oldest of Noah's children. He is the most loyal of Noah's sons and (after Naama) is often the first to stand by Noah. He is more heavily-set than his brothers, which helps him stand out amongst them, and he also stands out because of his red hair, his beard and his blue clothes.
• Brandon Morris- Ham: The youngest of Noah's children (and the only African one). He sticks out a bit more than his brothers because of his large, black afro and colorful red clothes.
• Lissa Grossman- Miriam: One of Noah's daughters-in-law. More emotional than the other females of the house, she is often the one who is hurt the most easily; however, she is much kinder than her other sisters-in-law. She is married to Ham. She stands out because of her red hair and blue clothes.
• Loren Lusch- Sara: Another of Noah's daughters-in-law. The most temperamental of the group, she is married to Shem, making for quite an interesting pair. She tends to be very frank with the people she meets. She stands out because of her dark hair and white clothes.
• Aubrey Shavonn- Edith: The last of Noah's daughters-in-law. Calm and cool, she brings some sense to any situation (though she can be a tad sarcastic, if the need arises). She is married to Japeth. She stands out because of her blond hair and red clothes.
• Terrell Hardcastle- Pepe: A white dove, he is the only one of his kind to actually deliver the messages that Noah sent out to the animals. A running gag throughout the movie is that he is constantly getting hurt (quite by accident, in most cases).
• Oscar Cheda- King Sabu: An elderly lion who was the king of all animals before the flood. Receiving Noah's message of the coming apocalypse from Pepe, he calls a gathering of all the animals in his kingdom to warn his people. Though he doesn't force the animals to go to Noah's ark (as some animals believed it to be a trap), he made it clear that if Noah's apocolyptic warning wasn't heeded and if it turned out to be a reality, those who failed to listen would have only themselves to blame. Knowing that his life will be ending soon, he (and the other animals whose times are almost up) stays behind and lets the procession of animals leave for the ark, declaring them "the salvation of the new world". It is believed that he was a wise and just ruler (which may explain why all of the animals were willing to congregate on his order).
• Heidi Harris- Queen Oriana: A lioness who was the wife of King Sabu and the queen of all the animals before the flood. Knowing that the time would come when her son, Xiro, would succeed her and her husband, King Sabu, she is more than willing to allow Xiro to partake in the journey to the New World. She trusts Kairel deeply, having her as a royal aide and trusting her to do some important tasks (i.e. ensuring that the pilgrimage to the ark runs smoothly).
• James Keller- Xiro: A lion and the main protagonist for the animals' point of view. The son of King Sabu and Queen Oriana, Xiro is expected to be a leader to all of the animals; despite this, the prince is (at first) more concerned with having fun and enjoying himself (though he does mature as the story goes on). Xiro is something of a womanizer, as he is easily swayed by beautiful creatures, which often leaves him in dire situations. Despite his being a predator, he actually has a friendship with herbivores (among them Alvaro the pig, a panda and a mole).
• Keller also served as the voice of Farfan: One of the two con artists who proves to be a thorn in the side of Noah, his family and the animals. He is somewhat arrogant, as he states that he "has a gift for finding idiots". The shorter of the two con artists, he is more easily distinguished than his female partner-in-crime by his green skin and his baldness.
• Tom Wahl- Bombay: An orangutan and one of the minor protagonists for the animal side of the story. A close friend to Xiro, Bombay proves to be a spiritual guide (in a method rather similar to how Rafiki served as a guide for Simba in The Lion King)- providing wisdom and advising Xiro on taking a course that will benefit as many people as possible -and a skilled massage therapist. On-board the ark, Bombay keeps himself busy as the owner of "The Dive"- a small entertainment club down in the lower recesses of the ship. Though Bombay looks like any other normal orangutan, his pink bow helps him stand out among a crowd.
• Heidi Harris- Bruma: A lioness and a minor antagonist from the animal side of the story. Though she chosen as one of Xiro's potential mates, Kairel (who was ordered to screen each of Xiro's potential companion candidates) rejected her because she was "too skinny no brains"; despite this, Xiro took her along as a companion, anyways. It is apparent that she isn't a very good person, as Kairel claims that, in her youth, she did some regrettable things that made her a wholly unimpeachable woman; she insists, though, that she "had no idea what she was doing". It's apparent that she and Kairel don't get along; to be honest, she hasn't built up much of a good relationship with the other animals in the jungle, either (judging the fact that most of them have nothing nice to say to her). She never lives long enough to get on-board Noah's ark because of an unexpected chain reaction accident that ultimately either smashes her flat (courtesy of a hippopotamus) or leaves her to drown, thus causing her to die.
• Chloe Dolandis- Kairel: A lioness and the secondary protagonist for the animal side of the story. It is apparent that she is high-ranking in the lion society, as she served as an aide to Queen Orianna. She can be strict (having worked with royals, she most likely had to learn about responsibility very quickly) and has a secret crush on Xiro.
• Antonio Amadeo- Pity The Parrot: One of the more prominent birds in the movie, Pity is famous as an entertainer in the ark's comedy club "The Dive". Having been around humans most of his life, Pity always has a hilarious story to tell. He sticks out because of his partly overgrown upper beak, his body (which is mostly covered in green feathers) and his loud voice.
• Wayne LeGette- Dagnino: A tiger and the main antagonist from the animals' point of view. Realizing all too well that the oncoming flood will mean a new world order, he conspires with several other carnivores in an effort to take over the ark and make himself king. Possessing both savage brawn and impressive mental prowess, he plots to disgrace Xiro and take his place as king of the beasts. Despite the fact that there is a female tiger already on-board the ark, Dagnino seems to be in a relationship with Panty.
• Danny Paul- Coco: A crocodile and one of the secondary antagonists from the animals' point of view. He prefers to let his brute strength do the work for him, as he isn't much of a talker. He serves as something of an enforcer to Dagnino. Interestingly, he seems to be blind in his left eye (which is entirely yellow).
• Todd Allen Durkin- Patricio: A vulture and one of the secondary antagonists from that animals' point of view. He is usually seen sitting on Coco's shoulder in a fashion similar to the way that a parrot sits on a partially blind man's shoulder.
• Gerald Owens- Cachito: A puma and one of the secondary antagonists from the animals' point of view. He is perhaps the most minor of the animal mutineers, as he rarely (if ever) says anything.
• Barry Tarallo- Wolfgang: A wolf and one of the secondary antagonists from the animals' point of view. Despite being a mutineer, he actually seems to care for the well-being of Xiro.
• Heather Gallaher- Panty: A black panther and the main secondary antagonist from the animals' point of view. Being the only female of the animal mutineers, she uses her feminine looks and her brains to help her fellow conspirators. She serves as the super-star of The Dive.
• Rayner Grannchen- Alvaro: A pig and one of the minor protagonists of the movie. Though he is hesitant to trust predators at first, as the story goes on, he develops something of a friendship with Xiro. Though he is somewhat low on the food chain, he is surprisingly brave, as he openly shows his hatred towards most of the carnivores.
• Amy London- Esther: The second of the con artists who serve as antagonists (mainly towards humans). Apparently, she comes from a family of criminals, as she mentions that her grandfather was a swindler, but he ended up killed by a former partner (who may have been Farfan, given his reaction). She has some proficiency with a needle. The taller of the two con artists, she is distinguished by a healthier skin coloration, red hair and earrings.
• Deborah Sherman Gorelo- Lily: An orangutan and one of the minor protagonists for the animals' point of view. Despite being a female, she is something of a brute, as she can easily take out anyone (regardless as to whether they are friend or foe) with but one punch. Despite this, she is a softie deep down, as she does care deeply for her mate, Bombay, and will protect him to the end.
