The Avengers: Infinity War Blu-Ray audio commentary confirms the theory that the voice of the Asgardian beacon is Thor director Kenneth Branagh.
The opening scene of Avengers: Infinity War marked the theme and mood for the rest of the film by showing the destruction that Thanos and his lackeys unleashed upon the Asgardian fleet. The very first line of dialogue in the film, in fact, was an Asgardian distress signal that has been long rumored to be the voice of Thor director Kenneth Branagh. It appears that this has since been confirmed in the Blu-Ray’s audio commentary. Check out the Tweet revealing this below!

A despot of intergalactic infamy, his goal is to collect all six Infinity Stones, artifacts of unimaginable power, and use them to inflict his twisted will on all of reality. Everything the Avengers have fought for has led up to this moment – the fate of Earth and existence itself has never been more uncertain.
