EA signs celebs Henstridge and Lumbly for Kane's Wrath
Sci-fi sex alien Natasha Henstridge of Species fame will join the cast of Command & Conquer 3: Kane's Wrath, as will former Alias star Carl Lumbly, better known around these parts as the voice of J'onn J'onzz, the Martian Manhunter on the Justice League animated series. The pair will join veteran C&C actor Joe Kucan, a.k.a. Kane, as the central characters in the upcoming expansion, which will cover 20 years of in-game history, from the rebirth of the Brotherhood of Nod following the second Tiberium War to events beyond that of the most recent game.
The use of digitized actors is something of a ghost of gaming past, but Command & Conquer has nonetheless continued to embrace tradition in using live actors in its games, and any news that gives us an excuse to (go)ogle Natasha Henstridge is just fine by us.

alias = worst show ever. acting is dismal, plot is forced, and the lead character "bombshell" looks like a man.
had to get that off my chest.

I remember playing that crappy Alias game demo. It's bad enough when TV gets crap shows, but for it to seep into my games?
Not cool.

Who cares all you need is Kane to make the cut scenes awesome.

natasha is hella fine, she looked great in the whole 9 yeards (and species too, but her body was the only good part of that movie)

I like both these people. I have to admit that I pretty regularly watched She Spies for her. I'm also a big fan of Carl Lumbly from Justice League. I anxiously await Kane's Wrath...
