Daniel Beretta: Remembering the Legendary Voice Behind Arnold Schwarzenegger in France

## The Voice of Sam Fisher

Video-game players also knew Beretta for another iconic role.

He became the French voice of **Sam Fisher**, the central character in the **Splinter Cell** series.

This was another natural fit for his vocal style.

Sam Fisher is controlled, serious, experienced, and understated.

The character doesn't need constant shouting to establish authority.

Beretta's delivery provided the calm intensity required for the role.

He also voiced **Batou** in the *Ghost in the Shell* universe and contributed to other video-game productions, including **Duke Nukem Forever**.

His career therefore crossed generations of entertainment—from traditional cinema to animation and interactive media.

## A Familiar Voice Beyond the Cinema

Beretta's influence extended into radio and television.

He provided program trailers for the French science-fiction channel Sci-Fi and worked as a station voice for radio.

He was associated with **Nostalgie** during the 1990s and later became the voice of **RFM**, where he remained involved between 2000 and 2008.
