I was replaying some of my favorite ZP reviews the other day and stopped a moment to ponder on the Fallout 3 review's comment on the use of high-profile actors in limited roles.
Hard to say if it's precisely due to the actor requiring better pay for more lines or what, but it does seem to be a growing habit. Jason Isaacs and Patrick Stewart in the newest Castlevania? My bet is neither will be playing Dracula or the protagonist... Maybe Isaacs will be playing Death, but no one can say for sure until the game is out.
In any case, if you got to choose one actor to play your "Captain Dynamite" for a game of your choice (can be one you made up or an existing franchise), who would it be and what role would the person play in it?
