It’s Nick Mohammed. You probably know him as Nathan Shelley, the sweet, awkward kit man turned coach on Ted Lasso. That guy who nervously says “Believe!” and makes you want to hug him? Yep, that’s him. But here’s the twist: Nick Mohammed also voiced Kohga in The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild and Tears of the Kingdom.
Let that sink in. The same voice that whispers advice to Ted Lasso is the one that huffs and puffs as a bumbling, blobby villain in Hyrule. It’s like finding out your favorite barista also moonlights as a mountain climber. It just makes you like them even more.
The Perfect “Wait, That’s Him?” Moment
Picture this: you’re curled up on the couch, playing Tears of the Kingdom. You’ve just defeated a boss, and suddenly a round, angry voice shouts something ridiculous. It’s Kohga, the leader of the Yiga Clan, and he’s hilariously menacing. You think, “Man, that voice sounds so familiar. It’s so… warm, even when he’s being a jerk.”
Then it clicks. That’s Nate! Nate the Great! It’s the same guy who nervously polishes trophies in Richmond. For a second, you forget to dodge the laser beams because you’re too busy grinning. That’s the magic of a good actor—they make you feel like you’re in on a secret.
