Electronic Arts has revealed the actors appearing in Red Alert 3's single player mode, and what the list lacks in Oscar-winning thespian talent, it more than makes up for in pure B-movie cheese potential.
Most impressively, the cast includes Tim Curry (Rocky Horror Picture Show, Scooby Doo And The Witch's Ghost) and George "Sulu" Takei (Star Trek, Heroes); two actors who have an impressive ability for turning weak scripts into thoroughly enjoyable, watchable (if campy) productions.
Curry and Takei, along with the other actors, will appear in the game's FMV story sequences, a series trademark that returns in all of its lo-fi glory for the third installment of Red Alert.
A full list of the revealed actors and actresses can be found below.
- Gemma Atkinson (Hollyoaks)
- Andrew Divoff (LOST)
- Kelly Hu (The Scorpion King)
- Jenny McCarthy (Singled Out)
- Ivana Milicevic (Casino Royale)
- Jonathan Pryce (Pirates of the Caribbean)
- J.K. Simmons (Spider-Man)
- Autumn Reeser (The OC)
- Peter Stormare (Prison Break)
- Randy Couture (former UFC champion)
- Gina Carano (American Gladiators)
Aside from Curry and Takei, all of these actors are overshadowed by Udo Kier, who played Yuri in Red Alert 2. Sadly, he does not return for the third iteration.
Still, J.K. Simmons was a fantastic J. Jonah Jameson and Gemma Atkinson is a very pretty girl. I'm cautiously optimistic.
