The verdict
Born in Toronto, Ontario, Will Arnett spent his childhood in Canada before heading south to pursue acting. Best known as GOB Bluth on Arrested Development and the voice of BoJack Horseman, he holds dual citizenship and has never quite lost the Canadian quality underneath — which, in his case, is mostly just barely-contained confidence and perfect timing.
