Jonathan Hardy
From Muppet Wiki
Jonathan Hardy (b. 1940) is a New Zealand actor and writer who received an Academy Award nomination for his screenplay for the 1980 film 'Breaker' Morant. He voiced Rygel XVI in all four seasons of Farscape, Farscape: The Game, and Farscape: The Peacekeeper Wars. He also appeared on-camera as Kahaynu the builder in "I Do, I Thinkk" and "The Maltese Crichton." Hardy spoke affectionately, if inaccurately, of his time as Rygel to the BBC, asserting "What else could one do to culminate a career than to become a very great international star as the voice of a Muppet?"
Hardy's film credits include Mad Max (with Mel Gibson, as Commissioner Labatouche), Baz Luhrmann's Moulin Rouge! (as the Man in the Moon, with singing voice dubbed by Placido Domingo), The Adventures of Barry McKenzie (with Spike Milligan), The Delinquents (with Kylie Minogue and Melissa Jaffer), and Ned Kelly (as the Great Orlando). Television includes the Australian series Prisoner, the 1989 revival of Mission: Impossible, Twisted Tales, and the TV movie The Thorn Birds: The Missing Years.
