Ang is from New Zealand, and was encouraged to use her own accent for Omega as an homage to Morrison. This is why Omega's Kiwi accent is so much stronger than the other clones.
The actor was invited to use her native New Zealand accent, an homage to fellow Kiwi Temuera Morrison who originated the role of Jango Fett and the clone soldiers in the prequel films.
No, the newest and youngest member of Clone Force 99, Omega, is voiced by Michelle Ang, a New Zealand actor who broke out with her role on the long-running Australian soap opera "Neighbors" in the early 2000s. That also makes her the first Kiwi performer to depict one of Jango's clones in animated form.
The clones are supposed to sound Kiwi, as Tem Morrison is a New Zealander. But Dee Bradley Baker gave the clones an Australian accent in TCW instead, which is a bit ironic and funny.
In 2021, Ang starred in the Disney+ original animated series Star Wars: The Bad Batch as Omega, a mysterious female clone of Jango Fett. She was invited to keep her native New Zealand accent for the role in homage to fellow New Zealander Temuera Morrison, who portrayed Jango Fett in the franchise.

Omega was an unmodified, yet enhanced human female clone created from the genetic template of the Mandalorian bounty hunter Jango Fett who lived in the years following the Clone Wars.
Why are the Empire given Commonwealth accents in Star Wars? Well, partially, because the original trilogy was filmed mostly in the UK, so labor laws meant a lot of the actors, including most of the day players (actors in small one-day roles and extras) were British.
Temuera Morrison is the voice of Jango and Boba Fett, he is from New Zealand and speaks with a New Zealander accent. Dee Baker Bradley is the voice of the clone troopers in TCW. A lot of the movies were filmed in the UK so there are variations on the accents spoken there by the actors.
Qui-Gon Jinn's name is only spoken within the last few seconds before the credits roll. Qui-Gon Jinn speaks with an English accent here. In all other portrayals he speaks with a distinct Irish accent.
He was voiced by the same guy who played him as a kid in attack of the clones and he had the accent. Plus he himself is from New Zealand, same as Temuera Morrison.
Omega is based off of Arla Fett, Jango Fett's sister from Star Wars Legends. Omega was the first of three female clones of Jango Fett to be introduced into Star Wars Canon, the others being Emerie Karr and Sister. The latter being transgender while Omega and Karr were engineered to be female from birth.
Even though Omega's a clone born on Kamino like the rest of the clone army, it's explained that she's the result of a genetic mutation even more extreme than the ones displayed by the members of the Bad Batch. For one thing, she's a girl while the rest of the clones are all male.
Omega's age in The Bad Batch was likely between 12-14 years old, showing growth as a soldier and member of Clone Force 99. The series took place in 19 BBY, and Omega's growth and maturity throughout the seasons were highlighted.
Omega keeps the clones relevant to the Star Wars galaxy long after the Clone Wars ended. Darth Sidious always has a plan. He planned to have the clones created, he planned to have them turn on the Jedi, and Palpatine planned on ruling the galaxy for eternity. Omega is the culmination of all those plans.
Temuera Derek Morrison is a Kiwi actor known for his critically acclaimed role of Jake "The Muss" Heke in the 1994 film Once Were Warriors. He gained international recognition for portraying the bounty hunter Jango Fett in. Morrison was born in the town of Rotorua, in the North Island of New Zealand.
Sintas Vel was a female Kiffar from the planet Kiffu, who became a bounty hunter at a young age. It would be during her career as a bounty hunter that Sintas would meet fellow bounty hunter Boba Fett, whom she fell in love with and later married when she was eighteen years old.
That's because whenever Luke speaks in "The Mandalorian" or "The Book of Boba Fett," it's actually a computer piecing together... The post Why Luke Skywalker's Voice Sounds So Weird in The Book of Boba Fett appeared first on /Film.
Boba Fett was a human male crime lord and former bounty hunter whose career spanned decades, from the fall of the Galactic Republic to the end of the rule of the Galactic Empire. Originally code-named Alpha, he was an unaltered clone of the famed Mandalorian bounty hunter Jango Fett who raised the boy as his son.
Because it sounded cool. Compared to an American voice which doesn't have menace. Or the actual rougher english voice of maul (thanks comments) which would have sounded odd (like the storm troopers sound odd being australian) he went with the typical empire voice of English. The majority in the Empire are English.
In canon, the commandos of Clone Force 99, a.k.a. “The Bad Batch,” had varying physiques due to their modifications or cybernetics. Boba Fett was unique among Jango's clones for having no differences from his template, as an unaltered clone. Another unaltered clone, Omega, is a female version of Jango Fett.
Omega may never meet Boba Fett on The Bad Batch, but perhaps she could appear in live-action down the lIne. The first two episodes of The Bad Batch season 2 are now streaming on Disney+.
