EA's Command & Conquer 3: Kane's Wrath Features All-Star Celebrity Cast

(Wireless News Via Thomson Dialog NewsEdge)
Electronic Arts announced that Command & Conquer 3: Kane s Wrath, the
expansion pack to Command & Conquer 3 Tiberium Wars, will feature
Natasha Henstridge (Species trilogy) and Carl Lumbly (Alias) in its
all-new, high-definition, live action video sequences.

Henstridge and Lumbly will be joined by veteran Command & Conquer actor
Joe Kucan, who originated the role of Kane, the megalomaniacal leader
of the Brotherhood of Nod. All three actors are at the epicentre of the
Command & Conquer 3: Kane s Wrath story which will span 20 years from
the rebirth of the Brotherhood after the Second Tiberium War through
the dramatic events of the Third Tiberium War and beyond.

Natasha and Carl are a perfect fit for the live-action video sequences
that will bring our epic story to life, said Mike Verdu, General
Manager of EALA and Executive Producer on Command & Conquer 3: Kane s
Wrath. We had great success with the cast and story for Command &
Conquer 3, and I m very excited to be working with such talented actors
on the expansion pack. We re doing something really unique with the
campaign this time around and I think fans will be thrilled to see how
the story unfolds.

Live action cinematics have become one of the hallmarks of the Command
& Conquer series dating back to the original Command & Conquer in 1995.
In addition to the trademark live action videos and multi-decade
campaign, Kane s Wrath introduces six new sub-factions and a wealth of
new units, structures, and powers to the armies of the Global Defense
Initiative, the Brotherhood of Nod, and the enigmatic alien Scrin.

The Xbox 360 version of Command & Conquer 3: Kane s Wrath will debut a
new radial interface designed specifically for console gamers. Taking
RTS controls to a whole new level, players will utilize the command
stick to build, deploy, and attack.

Developed at EALA, Command & Conquer 3: Kane s Wrath will ship in
Spring 2008 for Windows PC and Xbox 360 video game and entertainment
system. It is not yet rated by the ESRB.
