"It was shot in New York, my favorite place in the world, and I got to wear a tight Lycra suit as part of the digital process. No, hold on, that wasn't so good. Unfortunately they captured the whole horror, except I look slightly tougher."
"It's seriously a big deal, though. Games have outsold Hollywood for the past few years so it's nice to be a small part of that," he added.
Although best known as the star and creative force behind The Office and Extras, Gervais has also had roles in the movies Scarface: The World Is Yours [http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0477347/].
The article implied that Gervais would turn up in the game outside the confines of the comedy clubs, but did not divulge any further details. Grand Theft Auto IV hits the shelves on April 29 for the PlayStation 3 [http://www.xbox.com].
