Phineas and Ferb Wiki
This article is written from the Real World Perspective.

I would like to keep acting for the rest of my life--film, TV--characters that will teach me something about myself. Comedy, drama, and in time I would love to maybe even direct and write and do things behind the camera.

Vincent Martella (born October 15, 1992; Rochester, New York) performs the voice of Phineas Flynn on Phineas and Ferb.

He also played the part of Hope Estheim on the English dub of the video game, Final Fantasy XIII. Vincent also did the voice of the teenage Jason Todd/Robin in Batman: Under The Red Hood.

Background Information

  • Phineas's voice is not Vincent's regular speaking voice, and the voice he uses for Phineas has changed since it was first heard in "Rollercoaster". First, it started out in a high pitch like a normal young boy on the show. Then, it slowly got lower in pitch. Finally, it is given a slight but noticeable rasp.
  • While recording the second episode of Phineas and Ferb, Jeff "Swampy" Marsh convinced Vincent that he had to say a line as if he was underwater. After about the seventh take, Vincent realized it was a joke. His dad and Dan Povenmire were "on the ground laughing". [2]
  • Vincent's father owns the Captain Tony's Pizza and Pasta Emporium chain, with locations in New York, California, Ohio, Arizona, and London. (Website: www.CaptainTonys.com)
  • He is a Special Olympics National Youth Ambassador, and it appears that his picture is featured on the main page of the Special Olympics website, holding a note that says "Practice what you preach". Once turned down a movie role because his character would have to have used a derogatory term for the mentally handicapped. [3]
  • He records one episode of Phineas and Ferb every other week.
  • Vincent's younger brother, Alex, did the voice of the young Jason Todd\Robin in "Batman: Under the Red Hood." Vincent voiced the teenage Jason Todd\Robin in the movie. Both Vincent and Alyson Stoner have also voiced a member of the Bat-Family throughout their career. Alyson voiced Barbara Gordon\Batgirl in the Cartoon Network show Young Justice.
  • He graduated from DeLand High School in 2011 and currently studying in the University of Florida online business program.[4]
  • Vincent made an appearance on "Disney 365", a commercial special frequently played on Disney Channel, promoting the Phineas and Ferb: Across the 2nd Dimension video game. Bradley Steven Perry (From "Good Luck Charlie") appeared as host.
  • Vincent appeared in another "Disney 365" promoting "Phineas and Ferb: The Best Live Tour Ever!" The host's name was Dominique.
  • Vincent made an appearance in his third "Disney 365," this time as host. He interviewed several people about a "Son Of Neptune" Event. This was the first he has appeared in where it was not promoting Phineas and Ferb, and this was also the first one he appeared in where he did not imitate his Phineas' voice.
  • In Vincent's fourth Disney 365, he is promoting "Phineas and Ferb Agent P's World Showcase Adventure" Ride at Disney Themeparks.
  • On his 21st birthday, the Phineas crew gave Vincent a signed "Phineas and Ferb: Star Wars"-themed card with Rebel Phineas, Stormtrooper Candace, and Darth Ferb on it.[5]
