Jason Christopher Marsden (born January 3, 1975) is an American screen and voice actor largely known for numerous voice roles in animated films, as well as various television series.
Jason Marsden Born in Warwick, Rhode Island, the biggest little state in the Union. An appropriate origin for 5' 1" Marsden, whose 20 year accumulation of credits in the entertainment industry proves that good things do come in small packages. From soaps to sit-com, from feature film to voice over, in front of the camera and behind, Jason has led a most fortunate career. His first big break was peddling McPumpkin Happy Meals for the popular fast-food chain. He played one of several Alan Quartermain Jrs. on "General Hospital", his first recurring role, shortly followed by his first television series: "The Munsters Today", a revamped version of the original 60s series, starring John Schuck and Lee Meriwether, and Jason as "Little Eddie Munster". Three seasons later, "Munsters" ended but Jason continued, becoming a series regular on other such shows as "Eerie Indiana", "Almost Home", "Tom" (starring Tom Arnold), and joined the cast for the final two seasons of "Step by Step" (starring Suzanne Somers and Patrick Duffy). In the interim, he held recurring roles on "Boy Meets World", "Full House", and "Blossom" and guest starred on many others. Jason's film credits include portraying a thirteen year old "Buddy Young Jr." in Billy Crystal's "Mr. Saturday Night" and co-starring as first mate to Jeff Bridges' Captain in Ridley Scott's "White Squall". And most recently opposite Jim Carrey in "Fun With Dick and Jane". If you happen to be a "Will and Grace" fan, Jason guest starred in season 5, as Will's unfortunately under-tall blind-date. That's right, the "Pocket Gay". Jason also just completed a recurring stint on CBS "Shark" as Kelso Sutton, a savvy lawyer opposite James Woods. Going beyond on-camera, Jason has also been fortunate to have sustained an outstanding career in voice over! Lending his voice to many animated films, series, commercials, video games, and television promos. You (or your kids) might have heard Jason as "Danger Duck" in the hit WB animated series "Loonatics Unleashed"!
