- Was originally slated to voice Superman in Justice League Doom (2012), but he was not available, so Tim Daly, who Newbern replaced as Superman for Justice League (2001), replaced Newbern for Doom.
- He has played the same character (Superman / Clark Kent) on three different series: Static Shock (2000), Justice League (2001) and The Batman (2004).
- George & Marietta graduated from Northwestern University in 1986 with degrees in theatrical arts.
- Replaced Tim Daly as the voice of "Superman" on Justice League (2001) because Daly became involved with the new TV version of The Fugitive (2000). Daly had previously done the voice of "Superman" for Superman: The Animated Series (1996).
- [Talking about the animated Justice League (2001) series]: "I've done some movies and television and some voice-over work, but this is the first thing that has lasted for two years so far. It's been a fantastic job. You get to go work with a hair net and pimples on your face, and no one cares. And we've had some really amazing guests".
