As a documentary-drama living up to its title in every way imaginable, Netflix’s ‘Testament: The Story of Moses’ can only be described as utterly apprising, enlightening, and intriguing. That’s because it indeed explores all aspects of his life — as an outsider, murderer, exile, as well as prophet — to really shine a light upon the way his actions generated lasting wisdom. Yet for now, with mouthpieces playing a crucial role in this biblical original, if you simply wish to learn more about the distinct voices of the narrator and God, we’ve got the details for you.
Testament is Narrated by Charles Dance
Although Charles Dance needs no introduction, considering his extraordinary-ongoing career, identifiable English notes, and unwavering charm, some might solely know him from ‘The Crown.‘ After all, he not just served as Lord Mountbatten (a recurring guest part) in seasons 3 and 4 of this Netflix historic dama, but he also earned an Emmy Award nomination for the same in 2021. On the other hand, you might better recognize him as arguably one of the best screen ancillaries of all time since he usually only takes on strict, uncompromising, authoritarian character roles.
In fact, Charles made his feature film debut with one such minor position in the James Bond movie ‘For Your Eyes Only’ in 1981, which he has since followed by ‘Michael Collins’ in 1996, ‘The Imitation Game‘ in 2014, plus ‘Mank’ in 2020, amongst several others. Moreover, he was Tywin Lannister in ‘Game of Thrones‘ from 2011 to 2015 and has long since been a director, executive producer, as well as writer too — he’s actually behind the 2004 flick ‘Ladies in Lavender,’ starring Dame Judy Dench and Dame Maggie Smith. It thus comes as no surprise that with more than 160 different credits under his belt as of writing, he holds the recognition of the Officer of the Order of the British Empire for his services to cinema/drama.
