All Star Red Alert 3 Cast Revealed!

[Duke 0]

The cast for Command & Conquer: Red Alert 3 has finally been revealed today. Part of this announcement includes a trailer video featuring the actors in...action.

 

Leipzig, Germany - August 20, 2008 - During a press conference at Games Convention in Leipzig, Germany, Electronic Arts Inc. today announced the all-star ensemble cast featured in this holiday's highly anticipated real-time strategy video game Command & Conquer Red Alert 3. Starring in the Command & Conquer franchise's trademark live-action movie sequences, the diverse group includes a host of award-winning actors, action stars, science fiction legends, up-and-coming starlets from around the globe and even mixed martial artists.

 

The cast of Command & Conquer Red Alert 3 follows (in alphabetical order by last name): Gemma Atkinson (the UK's Hollyoaks), Tim Curry (Rocky Horror Picture Show, The Hunt for Red October), Andrew Divoff (LOST), Kelly Hu (X2, The Scorpion King), Jenny McCarthy (Scream 3, former Playboy Playmate of the Year), Ivana Milicevic (Casino Royale), Jonathan Pryce (Pirates of the Caribbean), J.K. Simmons (Spider-Man, Juno), Autumn Reeser (The OC), Peter Stormare (Prison Break, Armageddon), George Takei (Star Trek, Heroes), and two of the most recognizable names in competitive mixed martial arts Randy "The Natural" Couture (former UFC Heavyweight champion) and Gina "Conviction" Carano (Undefeated Elite XC fighter, American Gladiators).

 

"This is by far the most exciting cast we have in over 13 years of shooting live-action movies for Command & Conquer," said Chris Corry, executive producer at EALA. "The caliber of the performances we received, both individually and collectively, have really raised the storytelling bar for the franchise. We are really excited that we will be delivering such a high quality production that is on par with movies and television shows." "I wasn't sure what to expect when I came in to work on a video game," said Jenny McCarthy from the set of Command & Conquer Red Alert 3 while playing Tanya, Allied commando and the most beloved heroine in the history of the Command & Conquer universe. "What I realized is Red Alert 3 is not just a video game, it's absolutely an interactive movie. This is where the people at home get to move the story forward, and where seeing the plot thicken is a reward for a job well done. And that's really cool."

 

"I think video games are one of the new frontiers for actors and using live action is just another way to connect more easily to the gamer rather than CG or animation techniques," said J.K. Simmons from the set of Command & Conquer Red Alert 3, who is playing the anti-Communist U.S. President Howard T. Ackerman. "To be in a groundbreaking game like Red Alert 3 where we are using full on shooting of live actors and to be with Jonathan Pryce, Tim Curry and Peter Stormare, it was a great opportunity for a character actor like me to have some fun."

Overall its an impressive cast, but still the proof is in the acting. I will admit there a few actors that I don't know anything about. Seeing Jenny McCarthy dressed as Tanya makes me think she will be fine, Tim Curry is a good actor.

 

Also, anyone get the trailer to play at all. I just get this error...

It works fine for me >_>

[Sonic 295]

I downloaded it again, and now it works. Great trailer too!

[Luk3us 63]

All that money... This game better kick some supreme ass if they can afford all of them.

Peter Stormare OMG!!

He always ends up playing a russian lol

Anyways, it looks like there will be plenty of CG

[Alphabear 11]

I had the same message as sonic.

[Sonic 295]

Peter Stormare OMG!!

He always ends up playing a russian lol

Apparently he is Swedish by birth but pulls off a convincing Russian accent. He's done voice work in a few video games in recent years such as Quake 4.

 

I had the same message as sonic.

You will have to download it again Alphabear. Even updating to latest Quicktime didn't help. I guess the original download was corrupted or something. Sometime I wish EA would offer both Quicktime and WMV formats.

Must say, that was a very impressive video. Cast seems to be very good aswell. Shaping up to be quite good so far.

[Gben 20]

Wow! A good time to get back online... after a week or so in the internet wilderness!

 

Tim Curry is one of my favorite Character Actors - so glad to see he's in this.

George Takei is maybe a cliché choice but good none the less.

 

CGI was impressive...

I was surprised to not see another Japanese actor playing the son... so I guess we play the son.

 

But overall - yes - it all looks so very, very good.

[Alphabear 11]

Wow

 

It reminded me of the RA1 FMV sequences in the art style which gave it a good nostalgic feel. It far surpassed my expectations

[hagren 0]

It is kind of RA1esque, isn't it?
