Career
Eagles is especially known as the voice of The Grim Reaper in Grim & Evil and The Grim Adventures of Billy & Mandy from Cartoon Network. In some of his appearances, he is also credited as George Byrd, Gregg Eagles, and Greg Eales.
Eagles is also currently working on an animation project for a television series titled Teapot, about an 11-year-old boy who wishes to be a rapping superstar. He worked on the pilot episode which aired in Nicktoons Network's Random! Cartoons in which he created, produced, written, voice directed and even provided the voice of the titular character. The cartoon was storyboarded and art directed by Dahveed Kolodny Nagy (creator of Supa Pirate Booty Hunt) as well as Alex Almaguer who did art for Billy and Mandy and directed by Robert Alvarez. He is planning to turn the pilot into a full TV-series when it gets picked up, even making an online opening sequence and full theme song. The cartoon short also had a Kickstarter and a now-lost Indiegogo campaign for a video game adaption, Teapot Rap it Up! but the project failed to reach its $2,500 goal.[2]
