Subject: Voice Overs In ODST

  • user homepage:

So, did anyone else notice that the voice actors in the E3 trailer of ODST all belong to the actors who acted on firefly? Adam Baldwin, Nathan Fillion, and Alan Tudyk make me want to buy ODST just for their voice talents being in ODST. However, if Fillion is not the leader, and Baldwin not the heavy weapons/ main killer guy, and Tudyk not the vehicle specialist/ comic relief: I will RAGE.

Woah, wait, Alan Tudyk was in it, too?

And Tricia Helfer is also in on it as Dare. It's a pretty sweet lineup Bungie put together.

I noticed Tricia Helfer from Battlestar Galactica as Dare, and that voice of the Firefly captain who's also that new show's main character... uhhh, Castle I believe.

Yep, I believe he was the guy who said, "this ain't a job you want to rush." It's a pity they did not get Gina Torres, the actor to play Zoe in Firefly as well :[. But this is ODST, not "Halo Firefly" so I guess no harm done.

Crap, now I have to play the campaign all over again to find Tudyk because I didn't know he was in there.

Fillion is the guy who says, "Chief's got the right idea. Let's mount up and get the hell outa these caves" in the beginning of... hell I forgot the name of the level.

Baldwin was prevalent at the beginning of Crow's Nest too, continuously referring to himself as a lady's man every time I stared at him for long periods of time.

But I never heard Tudyk.

Yep. Fillion was one of the sergeants and Tudyk was a pilot. I don't remember hearing him, but I saw his names in the credits.

It is only fifteen episodes long, and you can watch it on Hulu. I would suggest you give it a shot though, it really is a good show.

You can watch all the episodes in the original order for free (LEGALLY) at Hulu.com.

Damn you Drifter... posting slightly before me.

Summer Glau Hotter than Tricia Helfer. By a landslide.

"Tank beats ghost."

"Tank beats hunter!"

"Tank beats everything! Oh man, I could do this all day!"

The Ark, checkpoint after the landing of Forward Unto Dawn. When you use the Scorpion to kill a ghost, the hunters, and the phantom. That's him.


And yes, it was pleasing to hear them as the squad. I talked about it being a neat idea, since they're such iconic actors in sci-fi. The only way to improve would be -- from my perspective, mind you -- if the whole ODST team was voiced by Firefly actors. Half is more than enough, though. It's great.

aye, it is all cool. See, now he has two people instead of one telling him to watch firefly. What this means is he will give a little more thought to watching firefly before he eventually just disregards the idea. :D

  • 06.01.2009 6:16 PM PDT

Baldwin, Fillion and Tudyk were the first things I noticed, awesome Bungie :D And Tricia Helfer is the icing on the cake, frak yes.

One of the few times succumbing to peer-pressure is a good thing.

I was like "omg what, Fillion in ODST! ODST would be much more cooler if it had more firefly actors." Then BAM! Baldwin and Tudyk, I came.

How about, they're both really hot-
I love Summer Glau though, she was amazing in The Sarah Connor Chronicals! She's my fave Terminator! OK, this is getting a bit off topic.
