THQ announces Anthony Head as lead voice over for Destroy All Humans! 2
THQ, today announces Anthony Head as
lead voice over in the upcoming Destroy All Humans! 2 expected to be
released in Fall 2006 for Xbox video and game entertainment system
from Microsoft and PlayStation 2 computer entertainment system.
Anthony
Head voices Ponsonby, a well coiffed human and head of MI5, who is
introduced to help the lead aliens, Crypto and POX, fight against the
KGB. However, as the game progresses, Ponsonby is not necessarily who
he appears to be. With the unexpected twists and turns, it appears that
no human can be trusted. To succeed, players should remember to live by
the motto, "Make War Not Love."
"When we were presented with the
character Ponsonby, we needed a voice that created an extra dimension
and enhanced his upper-class Englishness but hinted at a touch of
deceit. Anthony Head has a wealth of acting experience and was the
obvious choice. He brought Ponsonby alive in a very unique way,"
commented Richard Williams, director of marketing, THQ.
Destroy
All Humans! 2 marks the return of the hugely popular alien-centric game
whose predecessor secured a top-three all formats chart position in the
summer of 2005. Set in 1960s, and boasting five new locations, our
favourite destruction-loving alien returns to wreak even more havoc on
planet earth in Destroy All Humans! 2.
Anthony Head is an
established English actor with a long line of film, television and
stage credits to his name. Anthony was once famed for the popular
“Nescafe Gold Blend' advertisements which ran in the 1980s. Since then,
he has gone on to play lead roles in TV dramas in the UK and US. Recent
characters include Rupert Giles in the successful Buffy the Vampire
Slayer series and in the UK he has played Chester Grant in Monarch of
the Glen and the straight-laced Prime Minister in Little Britain.
