Complete cast breakdown of The Bad Guys: Breaking In Season 1: Who voices who & where you’ve heard or seen them before

The crew is back, or rather, just getting started. The Bad Guys: Breaking In Season 1 takes fans back to where it all began for Wolf and his infamous gang of wannabe villains. The animated prequel series, streaming on Netflix, explores how this band of misfit criminals first came together before the events of DreamWorks’ hit 2022 film The Bad Guys.

Executive producers Katherine Nolfi and Bret Haaland pull back the curtain on the early, messy days of Wolf, Snake, Shark, Piranha, and Tarantula, a group still figuring out their skills, teamwork, and even what it means to be “bad.” The series balances plenty of slapstick chaos with heart, friendship, and a touch of self-awareness, proving that every great heist crew starts somewhere.

Voice cast details for The Bad Guys: Breaking In Season 1 explored

• Michael Godere as Mr. Wolf: Leading the charge is Michael Godere, lending his voice to the smooth-talking leader of the pack, Mr. Wolf. The New Haven-born actor, writer, and producer brings charisma and confidence to the character, capturing Wolf’s early ambition and overconfidence as he tries to make his mark. Godere, a veteran of New York theater, co-wrote and starred in the indie thriller Daylight (a New York Times Critics’ Pick) and the comedy Flirting with Love, where he shared the screen with Natasha Lyonne, Marisa Tomei, and Sam Rockwell.
• Ezekiel Ajeigbe as Mr. Shark: Ezekiel Ajeigbe, known for his work on Dynasty and Outer Banks, voices Mr. Shark — the gentle giant of the group. Sweet-natured but easily distracted, Shark’s size and enthusiasm make him both a powerhouse and a liability during their early heists. Ajeigbe’s comedic timing helps the character strike the perfect balance between lovable oaf and loyal friend.
• Raul Ceballos as Mr. Piranha: Raul Ceballos (Inside Out 2, Death Stranding 2: On the Beach) brings high energy to Mr. Piranha, the team’s smallest but most unpredictable member. Quick to act and quicker to explode — sometimes literally — Piranha’s impulsive behavior leads to some of the show’s funniest and most chaotic moments. Ceballos’ voice work gives the character a manic charm that keeps the gang (and viewers) guessing.
• Chris Diamantopoulos as Mr. Snake: Chris Diamantopoulos (Silicon Valley, The Wonderful World of Mickey Mouse) slides into the role of Mr. Snake, the gang’s cynical safecracker with a sharp tongue and a soft spot for Wolf — though he’d never admit it. A Broadway alum fluent in Greek and classically trained, Diamantopoulos gives Snake the kind of dry wit and edge that grounds the team’s antics. His exchanges with Kate Mulgrew’s Serpentina are some of the season’s highlights.
• Mallory Low as Ms. Tarantula: Mallory Low (Samurai Rabbit: The Usagi Chronicles) spins her web as Ms. Tarantula, the group’s hacker and resident voice of reason. Cool under pressure and endlessly resourceful, Tarantula is the glue that holds the Bad Guys together, even when they don’t deserve it. 
• Zehra Fazal as Tiffany Fluffit & Tiffany Fluffit Sr.: Zehra Fazal (Voltron: Legendary Defender, Young Justice) plays double duty as both Tiffany Fluffit and her mother, Tiffany Fluffit Sr. The two reporters are obsessed with covering the Bad Guys’ every move, often turning their latest misadventures into headline news. 
• Kate Mulgrew as Serpentina: Star Trek: Voyager and Orange Is the New Black star Kate Mulgrew voices Serpentina, the commanding and cunning mother of Mr. Snake. As a legendary thief with a reputation that overshadows her son’s, Serpentina isn’t just a mentor figure — she’s also a constant reminder that being bad takes skill. Mulgrew’s signature gravitas and sly humor make her a standout addition to the voice cast.

Additional cast members for The Bad Guys: Breaking In Season 1 include Maria Bamford as Peppy Sweet Pots, Patton Oswalt as Mr. Wigglesworth, Keith Silverstein as Gary and Chaz, Kimberly Brooks as Ash, Lisa Gilroy as Ricki Talon, Vincent Tong as Skulli Flame-Boni, and Ian James Corlett as Baron Von Tuskington. Each adds their own unique twist to this world of ambitious animals, keeping the humor fresh and the energy high.

With its mix of seasoned voice talent and rising stars, The Bad Guys: Breaking In Season 1 delivers a sharp, funny, and surprisingly heartfelt origin story for DreamWorks’ favorite criminal crew. Whether you’re tuning in for Wolf’s charm, Snake’s sarcasm, or Shark’s lovable clumsiness, this prequel series proves that bad behavior has never sounded so good.
