I’m the sort of fan who notices voices in crowds of characters, and one quick clarification I like to give: Iroh’s original voice actor was Mako (his Uncle Iroh performance in 'Avatar: The Last Airbender' is legendary). The later incarnations / younger appearances often called Iroh II are voiced by Greg Baldwin, who took over the mantle after Mako’s passing. Baldwin’s other prominent credit that fans notice is voicing Aku in the later 'Samurai Jack' episodes — which is amusing because it’s such a different energy from Iroh — and he’s also done a bunch of smaller guest roles in animated shows and video games. If you’re listening closely, you can hear how Baldwin nods to Mako’s rhythms while bringing his own phrasing to the lines, which keeps the character familiar but slightly refreshed.

I'm a long-time fan of the Avatar universe and this question always sparks a bit of a nostalgic grin. If you mean the younger 'Iroh' we see in the follow-ups to 'Avatar: The Last Airbender' — often referred to as Iroh II in fan circles and credited appearances — the voice performing that role in later material is Greg Baldwin. He stepped into the Iroh shoes after the original actor, Mako Iwamatsu, passed away; Greg's work kept that warm, tea-loving vibe alive while giving the character a slightly different timbre that still felt true to the original spirit.

Greg Baldwin is probably best-known for picking up several of Mako's roles, so beyond Iroh he’s done the revived voice of Aku in 'Samurai Jack' and a bunch of guest and recurring parts across animation and games. He’s one of those reliable character actors who slides into established roles smoothly — you’ll hear him in various animated shows and video games, often as gruff mentors, quirky older guys, or eccentric villains. If you dig through credits you’ll find his touch on a lot of projects where a seasoned, comforting or sardonic voice is needed, and that’s exactly what he brings to Iroh II as well.

I get excited talking about voice casts, and this one is a nice bit of continuity: the original Uncle Iroh in 'Avatar: The Last Airbender' was voiced by Mako Iwamatsu, whose performance is iconic. After Mako passed, Greg Baldwin became the go-to actor to continue that legacy, voicing Iroh in subsequent episodes and related media — including the younger Iroh appearances that some people call Iroh II. So when you hear that similarly mellow, tea-sage quality in later productions, that’s Greg Baldwin carrying the torch.

Aside from his Iroh work, Greg has a handful of notable credits where he stepped into roles or provided new ones in both TV animation and games. Famously he also voiced Aku in the continuation of 'Samurai Jack', which is a fun contrast to Iroh because Aku is pure chaotic menace while Iroh is calm wisdom. Greg’s career is full of those interesting contrasts; he’s often the veteran presence lending gravitas, warmth, or comic timing depending on what a show needs. If you like voice actor trivia, tracing how Mako’s original roles were honored and continued by Greg is a neat rabbit hole to go down.

Who is iroh ii in The Legend of Korra series?

Spotting family echoes across generations is one of my favorite little things about revisiting shows, and Iroh II is one of those subtle echoes in 'The Legend of Korra' that makes the world feel lived-in. He’s essentially the grandson of the original Iroh from 'Avatar: The Last Airbender'—the same gentle, tea-loving, philosophically minded elder we adored—though Iroh II is a much more background, support-level presence rather than a central figure. Fans sometimes call him Iroh II just to keep the generations straight, and that label stuck because it nicely signals continuity between the two series. What I like about him is how he represents legacy without stealing the spotlight. He embodies the idea that the world keeps moving: old heroes age, new faces carry parts of them, and traditions—like the ceremonial love of a good cup of tea and the White Lotus' quiet wisdom—filter down. In the show he appears briefly and isn’t deeply developed, so most of what we get are vibes: calm, familiar, and respectful of history. That leaves room for fan interpretations, comics, and fanart to imagine the rest. If you’re in the mood for tiny connective tissue moments, keep an eye out for that kind of background character work in 'The Legend of Korra'. For me, seeing Iroh II is like finding a bookmark between two favorite novels: small, warm, and telling me the world carries on in believable ways.
