Just came back after seeing the movie Phone Booth (pretty good suspense with a crap ending), and one thing that caught me instantly was the narrating voice in the beginning. It is positively the same guy who does Sarevoks voice throughout the BG series. Pretty cool that some of the voice actors in these games actually seem to have some sort of Hollywood career, especially the guy who does Irenicus voice.

Did any of you guys see the movie 'Time Bandits' at one point? I think the guy who plays the 'evil one' sounds the spit of Irenicus.

Actually, I'm suprised that no soundpacks get the soundbytes from this film because it is quality all the way.

David Warner does Jon Irenicus' voice.

Mark Hamill( popular for his Luke Skywalker role, has a voice role in Icewind Dale)

He played in the TV show Hornblower in the latest season, and he played Billy Zanes aging personal assistant in Titanic.

The voice of kevin Michael Richardson (Sarevok) is one of my favourites. Click the link to see what "Sarevok" looks like and also what films/other games he has done the voices for. It turns out that he's done voices/acted in some 70+ films and games, and has had another 70+ notable TV appearances!! (his deep unique voice must be very popular!)

You can spot his accent a mile off, especially if you've played the BG/IWD series a million times over and know exactly what he sounds like!

The first film I noticed his voice in was Lilo and Stitch a couple of months ago (he played Captain Gantu). BTW Rataxes, I don't think he played a role in Phone Booth, I checked the whole cast listing and he wasn't there....

Nah, I know. For some strange reason he isn't listed anywhere at all on IMDB. But I challenge anyone to see that movie, listen to that introductionary narration, and tell me it's not him [img]smile.gif[/img]
