Who voiced Dory in Finding Nemo?

• A. Ellen DeGeneres
• B. Albert Brooks
• C. Tom Hanks
• D. Reese Witherspoon

Answer: (A)

Dory’s voice comes from Ellen DeGeneres. The character is a sunny, scatterbrained blue tang whose humor and optimism drive much of the film, so casting a performer with warmth and strong comic timing was essential, and Ellen DeGeneres fits that role perfectly. This voice gives Dory a relatable charm that audiences connect with, helping the character stand out and carry key moments in the story. For contrast, Albert Brooks supplies the voice of Marlin, Nemo’s more cautious father; Tom Hanks is best known for Woody in Toy Story, not this film, and Reese Witherspoon isn’t part of the Nemo cast. Ellen also reprises Dory in Finding Dory, reinforcing how closely the voice defines the character.
