Actor to provide voice talent for game.
Sony Online Entertainment Inc. (SOE) today announced that Christopher Lee and Heather Graham have been cast for the voices of the two main characters of SOE's upcoming MMORPG, EverQuest II.
"The voiceover component of EverQuest II is a huge project that has already raised the bar for future MMO games," said John Smedley, president, Sony Online Entertainment. "Christopher Lee is an icon in the entertainment industry, having been a part of some of the greatest fantasy and science fiction franchises in history, and he has truly brought Lucan D'Lere to life. Heather Graham embodies the spirit of fantasy, giving life to Antonia Bayle, the leader of the forces of good. Both deliver compelling performances for our players that blur the line between blockbuster Hollywood films and interactive gaming."
Scheduled for simultaneous release later this year in North America and Europe, EverQuest II features more than 70,000 lines of dialogue spread across over 1,700 voice actors.
