Full circle portraying is where two or more characters have officially been portrayed by the same actor/actress in more than one occasion.
However, this might not count if both/all characters are from the same series. For instance, Animal and Bunsen were both voiced by Howie Mandel in the first two seasons of Muppet Babies, but they were voiced by Dave Coulier in every other season.
Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_content_3'); })It's common that one is the Poor Man's Substitute for the other.

While it doesn't involve a specific acting pair, it does involve a Casting style on The Jetsons . It's very common for the actor playing Elroy to be older than the actress playing Judy despite Judy being older than Elroy. The original 60s and 80s runs had them voiced by Daws Butler (1916) and Janet Waldo (1920). Jetsons: The Movie had them voiced by Patric Zimmerman (1954) and Tiffany (1970). The 2017 WWE movie had them voiced by Trevor Devall (1972) and Danica Mc Kellar (1975).

Spider-Man: Friend or Foe saw Spidey voiced by James Arnold Taylor and Harry Osborn voiced by Josh Keaton (reprising his role from the movie games). When The Spectacular Spider-Man cartoon came out less than a year later the roles were reversed: Keaton voiced Spider-Man and Taylor voiced Harry. The two voice actors have provided the voice of Cyclops as well: Taylor in X-Men: The Official Game, which bridged the events of the second and third films, and Keaton in the second X-Men Legends game.

A mix of Western Animation and Anime: In the second Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles (2003) cartoon, Leonardo was voiced by Michael Sinterniklaas, and in its Japanese Dub Leo was voiced by Tetsuya Kakihara. In Mobile Suit Gundam Unicorn the character of Angelo Sauper was voiced by Kakihara in Japanese and Sinterniklaas in English.

In Final Fantasy VII and Kingdom Hearts, Reno and Axel are voiced by Keiji Fujiwara in Japanese and Quinton Flynn in English.
They also share the same voice actor in French. And Spanish. And German.

Transformers' tendency to self-reference also leads to much homage casting. Several voice actors have played different incarnations of the same character, even when the new version is very different from the previous version. The current Optimus and Megatron are also the first Optimus and Megatron, Peter Cullen and Frank Welker. Beast Wars and the Unicron Trilogy also share their Optimus and Megs, with Gary Chalk and David Kaye, yesssss.

Takeshi Kusao was the Japanese voice actor for Ryo in the original version of Ronin Warriors, and when it was dubbed into English Ryo was voiced by Matt Hill. Years later Kusao voiced Bankotsu in Inuyasha, and appropriately enough when he appeared in the English dub Matt Hill was his voice actor.

Light Yagami and Setsuna F. Seiei are voiced by Mamoru Miyano in Japan and Brad Swaile in the West, leading some (even on this Wiki) to declare Swaile the English equivalent of Miyano.
YMMV on that considering Vic Mignogna and Todd Haberkorn also both share numerous Miyano roles. Vic voiced Tamaki in the dub of Ouran High School Host Club and Zero in Vampire Knight, while Todd voiced Death the Kid in Soul Eater, Ling Yao in Fullmetal Alchemist: Brotherhood, and Kyrie in Sands of Destruction.

Kellie Martin was the voice of Daphne in A Pup Named Scooby-Doo and would voice Max's girlfriend Roxanne in A Goofy Movie. Years later, Grey DeLisle would take over as the voice actress for Daphne starting in the film Scooby-Doo and the Cyber Chase, and voiced Roxanne in an episode of House of Mouse.

Kamen Rider Dragon Knight dub: Kivat's voice actor plays JTC and Kiva-la's VA plays Kase. That makes their battles the Duel of the Cute Talking Transformation Trinket Bats. Also, Len is voiced by the actor for Len's Japanese counterpart Ren.

Scooby Doo from Scooby-Doo and Astro from The Jetsons were both voiced by Don Messick. After his death in 1997, Frank Welker eventually took on both roles.
Sticking with Don Messick, he also voiced Dr. Quest on Johnny Quest and both Bamm Bamm and Hoppy on The Flintstones . Flash forward to the 2010s, and Eric Bauza would inherit the roles.

In Digimon Frontier, Michael Reisz voices most of Takuya's forms, but when he got another upgrade, Reisz said his voice wasn't up for the constant screaming that had accompanied his other forms. David Wittenberg, therefore, plays him as Emperor Greymon only. Meanwhile, Ice Devimon was played by Michael Reisz in Digimon Tamers but by Wittenberg in Frontier. (Sadly. Reisz' sexy voice and Ice Devimon's sadism come together in a way that just isn't there with the second incarnation's deranged-surfer voice, which is said to be patterned after Christopher Walken.) This is poetic on two counts: One, Wittenberg has a habit of taking Reisz's characters, and two, as the original Digimon Frontier Greymon had no two forms played by the same actor, we continue that trend. (It's broken in Digimon Data Squad, though, where he keeps the same VA as Agumon, Geo Greymon, Rize Greymon, and Shine Greymon.)

Ian James Corlett was the original English voice of Goku and Master Roshi as well as Shuichi Tataki in Key the Metal Idol. After he left both series, the characters were taken over by Peter Kelamis. Adding to that, when Corlett quit doing anime dubs, the character of Dr. Tofu from Ranma ½ was voiced by Kirby Morrow in the final few episodes he appeared in. Likewise, when Ocean Studios continued their respective dub of Dragon Ball Z in Canada, Morrow proceeded to voice Goku for the rest of the series.

Many Starscream voice actors have also played the Cobra Commander - more than not, actually. Chris Latta was the original version of both, Michael Dobson was the Unicron Trilogy Starscream and the Commander in two OVAs, and Charlie Adler was movie Starscream and the current voice of the Commander. Tom Kenny (Transformers Animated) and Steve Blum (Transformers Prime) will have to wait their turns!
