Does another person dub a non-English/British dialect voice for Freddie in "Bates Motel"? The reason I ask is in the post-series special Freddie spoke with a very heavy typical British dialect. I can't imagine how he can do away with that dialect in film or television roles. I wonder the same thing about the actor who is the lead in the television series "The Mentalist" who speaks with a strong Australian accent.
shareNo, he just puts the american accent on.
I've noticed a few British actors are generally quite good at American accents. Some examples of excellent american accents by British actors are Hugh Dancy (as Will Graham in Hannibal) and Hugh Laurie (in House).
He's been doing american accents since he was a kid in August Rush.
shareAre you serious? It's called putting an accent on. Loads of actors do it.
shareIt's called acting!

shareActors often work with a dialect coach to help them master different accents. It is part of the craft. And you see it all the time. Including americans acting in English productions with a British accent.
The australians are great at mastering an american accent. Did you know that RICK in The Walking Dead is Australian? You should HEAR his native accent!
Lol I'm pretty sure Andrew Lincoln is British
shareYes he is
Idris Elba got a solid American accent
I don't think anybody can top Tim Roth though
