Considering his previous characters chances are he's going to be playing a more comical character similar to Sokka, my guess is the fairly confirmed character "Meelo" but that's just a guess, he could be playing anyone." Chances are high that he's going to be a playing a major character since he is such a big name in the voice acting world.
Robert Paulsen also mentioned in a twitter post that he has been working with Eva Marie-Saint, (A Christmas Carol, Superman Returns [Clark Kent's Mom])." I don't have any solid guesses as to who she'll play, possibly Korra's Mom or Grandmother, or maybe even an old version of Katara (during a flashback of course because we know Katara will be dead in Korra).
Pinky and the Brain and Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles were some of my favorite shows growing up, so this is definitely some exciting news!" Looks like Korra is shaping up to have a stellar cast.
