Sarah Natochenny, best known as the voice actor for Ash Ketchum in Pokemon, is set to make her live-action debut in Raccoon, directed by Michael Basta and also stars Tim Heidecker.

The English voice actor, who has been celebrated as one of the most sought-after performers in animation for two decades, explains that she struggled to accept the distinction between voice acting and acting on camera.

Sarah Natochenny got her first big break in 2006, as a teenager, when she landed Ash's role in the English dub of the iconic anime show, originating in Japan.

She boasts a substantial body of work in anime and animation shows, such as Tokyo Revengers, Robin Hood: Mischief in Sherwood, Peter Pan: The Quest for the Never Book and Your Friendly Neighborhood Spider-Man.
