Steve Kratz

Steve Kratz (b. 1961) is a Swedish voice actor who voiced Valemon as a polar bear (supplied by Jim Henson's Creature Shop) in the original language version of The Polar Bear King. He was the later Swedish voice of Bert from the 1990s onward and of Uncle Deadly and Dr. Teeth in the Swedish dub of Muppets Now.
Other Muppet dub roles include Ace Hart on the dub of Dog City and various characters on Leksakernas Hemliga Liv (The Secret Life of Toys). Kratz has also dubbed roles in the Creature Shop effect movies The Flintstones in Viva Rock Vegas, Stuart Little 2 (as Falcon), and Dr. Dolittle (as Dr. John Dolittle and a rat).
Kratz graduated from an acting school in Stockholm in 1989, initially playing gentle types. That quickly changed, due to his appearance and style of acting, and now he often portrays more sinister types on stage.
His film and TV credits include BlackJack, Beck, Tomten är far till alla barnen, and Kommissarie Winter. Voice credits include The New Adventures of Winnie the Pooh (Tigger in the first 13 episodes), the 1990s Spider-Man (Nick Fury and others), Scooby-Doo, Where Are You! (as Scooby-Doo), Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles (Bebop and others), and more.
