Trivia[]
- In order to hide Vangelis's identity as Skull Sorcerer, he used a pseudonym. Until his reveal, he was credited as "Ervin M Jordan". This technique was also used with Brent Miller to hide Zane's identity as the Ice Emperor in Season 11.
- He was not aware of Vangelis' ethnicity and appearance until the episodes he recorded for premiered, which didn't have an impact on how he performed the character, yet he feels awkward about the situation.[1] Mack also clarified that had he seen the design beforehand, he wouldn't have auditioned for the character, presumably to allow actors of Asian ethnicity the same opportunity for the character.[2]
- Mack wrote on Kirby Morrow's passing that "he was always incredibly warm and kind towards me. [He] Immediately helped me feel welcomed into the Ninjago family. [It] Was both an honor and joy to perform alongside him."[3]
- His favorite ninja is Jay.[4]
- Deven Mack has auditioned for Season 12: Prime Empire, saying that he might have auditioned for Unagami.[5]
- Deven Mack has worked with WildBrain before, playing Sonic the Hedgehog on the Netflix series Sonic Prime.
- Mack also had a voice role in the anime TV series Bakugan: Battle Planet, in which he voiced the character Wynton Styles.
