Earl Baylon is a Los Angeles-born, Long Beach-raised actor and voice artist (and sometimes writer/producer) who exists at the nexus of hard work and burritos. His pursuit of the creative arts is driven by raw instinct and a sense of play, which he strives to bring to even the most seriousest of roles. Most recently, he can be heard in the NETFLIX animated series TOMB RAIDER: THE LEGEND OF LARA CROFT where he plays JONAH MAIAVA – a role he originated in the Crystal Dynamics video games. He also voices LORIS in the Emmy-nominated and Annie Award-winning animated series, ARCANE Season 2.
He was born many years ago in the lowlands of East Hollywood, soon after which he was kidnapped by his “parents,” who brought him to live in the mythical land of Long Beach, CA with their “family.” Earl yeeted off to UC, Irvine where he majored in Biological Sciences and did every possible other thing besides his schoolwork.
Earl is currently the Artistic Director of ROOM TO IMPROV, an Asian-American improv troupe serving the LA community… and beyond! You can hear him in various voice projects including the Emmy-nominated Dreamworks Curses! Apple TV+, the multiple award-winning Batman Arkham Shadow, Starfield, Rise of the Ronin, Vinland Saga, Tekken: Bloodline, Lookism, and the recently released Fatal Fury: City of the Wolves. Additionally, he has appeared on-screen in Welcome to Chippendales, St. Denis Medical, and The Studio.
He currently serves as Associate Producer and actor on the feature film LUMPIA WITH A VENGEANCE.
In his “free time” Earl yells at plastic polyhedrals and panics while doing finger–DDR in an effort to subdue the Terminid scourge and spread Managed Democracy throughout the galaxy.
