I'm completely over giving VA jobs to traditional actors.

I think Jack Black can be considered a voice actor and a traditional actor, he has done a lot of good work for both

Give him one chance to rock your socks off.

Team him up with Mark Hamil!

There are very few voice actors who didn't come up through "traditional" acting.

Especially notable is Bojack which is considered the GOAT and to my knowledge doesn't feature anyone who hasn't done theatre, tv or film.

Mel Blanc did TV before he did cartoons

Dan Castellaneta did Second City and character comedy for years before the Simpsons

Tom Kenny was an actor for 10 years before SpongeBob

And so on

the only one I can think of that would meet this description is Seth MacFarlane.

Mark hamil is a voice actor that moonlights as a movie actor.
