The dubbing actor Andrzej Gawroński has passed away. Many people associate his voice with, for example “The Smurfs”, in which he voiced Maruda or “Maya the Bee” – in the fairy tale, the grasshopper Filip spoke his voice. He was 85 years old.

Andrzej Gawroński was born on Febraury 10, 1935 I Warsaw. He was an actor – he appeared on the stage of theaters, but he died not avoid films and TV productions. Including dubbing. He died in a hospital in Warsaw on September 4, 2020.

We saw him in films such as “"Jak rozpętałem drugą wojnę światową", "C.K. Dezerterzy", "Lata dwudzieste... lata trzydzieste..." i "Noce i dni". He also appeared in series - "Tulipanie", "Czterdziestolatku", "Zmiennikach" or "M jak miłość", "Na Wspólnej", "Kryminalnych" and "Plebani". Most often they were episodic roles. He also participated in radio dramas - "Matysiakowie" (Stanisław "Stach" Matysiak) oraz "W Jezioranach" (Dendera).

But his greatest career was as a dubbing actor. Łebski Willy Kojot, Uncle Sam and Louie the cook from the series "Looney Tunes" spoke in his voice. Like the inventor Henry from "The Jetsons", the grasshopper Filip and his brother, Wacek, from "Maja's Bee", Maruda, Ice Guard, King Buffalo and Greedy from "The Smurfs", Wiluś E. "Free Orc 2", Gepetto from "Shrek", Oogway from "Kung Fu Pandas" and Mr. Ollivander from the last installments of the Harry Potter series.

His brother was Aleksander Gawroński, also a dubbing player. We know his voice for example, “Benjamin’s Elephant’ (secretary Pikler), “Cat Gang Beverly Hills” (Choo Choo” or “Smurfs” (worker). The artist's funeral will take place next week at the Powązki Cemetery in Warsaw.
