Skyrim, Fallout 3 Voice Actor Shares Message Amidst Recovery

Feb 22,2025 Author: Michael

Beloved Bethesda voice actor Wes Johnson, known for his roles in Skyrim, Fallout 3, Starfield, and numerous other titles, has shared a moving message following a near-fatal incident. Last week, he was found "barely alive" in his Atlanta hotel room.

A video posted on a GoFundMe page, which has already raised over $174,000 for his medical expenses, reveals Johnson was in a coma. He expressed profound gratitude for the outpouring of support: "I found out there's a lot of love in this world that I didn't know was out there, and I'm grateful to each and every one of you."

The incident occurred while Johnson was in Atlanta for a National Alzheimer's Foundation benefit event. His absence raised concerns, leading his wife to contact the hotel. Security personnel and EMTs found him with a barely detectable pulse.

Johnson recounted the experience: "Rumors of my demise weren't exaggerated. It was very close. But I'm still here because my wife called the hotel, my son contacted security, and they found me nearly dead. They took me to the hospital, put me in a coma for five days." He credits the swift actions of his family and friends, including Bill Glasser and Shari Elliker, who established the GoFundMe campaign.

He extended heartfelt thanks to the National Alzheimer's Association, Ted Leonsis (who donated $25,000), Bethesda Studios, and his countless fans for their unwavering support. "You say I'm your friend. I am, always will be. Love you guys," he said to Bethesda. He reassured fans, "I love you all. I'm not going anywhere. It's going to be a while, but I'm coming back."

Johnson's extensive voice acting career includes a wide range of film and television roles, but he's particularly recognized for his contributions to Bethesda's games. His recent role as Ron Hope in Starfield adds to an impressive list of characters, including Sheogorath and Lucien Lachance in Oblivion, multiple Daedric Princes in Morrowind, Fawkes and Maister Burke in Fallout 3, Hermaeus Mora and Emperor Titus Mede II in Skyrim, and Moe Cronin in Fallout 4.
