AC/DC Singer Lends Voice To Video Game

October 7, 2004

AC/DC frontman Brian Johnson and actor Dennis Haysbert of the hit television drama "24" are among the celebrities that have signed on for key voice talent roles in Activision, Inc.'s gritty, epic first-person war action-thriller "Call of Duty: Finest Hour" Additionally, veteran writer/ producer Michael Schiffer will once again provide his screenwriting stamp with a cinematic and intense script. Award-winning composer Michael Giacchino returns to score a breathtaking soundtrack that will further immerse fans into the overwhelming action. Developed by Spark, "Call of Duty: Finest Hour" will deploy this fall for the PlayStation2 computer entertainment system, Xbox video game system from Microsoft and Nintendo GameCube and carries a "T" ("Teen" - Blood, Violence) rating by the ESRB.

"Working with Dennis, Brian, Michael Schiffer and Michael Giacchino has been a truly inspired collaboration," said Scott Langteau, producer and COO, of developer Spark Unlimited. "Each brought his own valued expertise to the project, contributing in such differing ways to the depth of realism and emotion of 'Finest Hour''s non-stop, gripping action."

Vocalist Brian Johnson brings his signature voice, honed over the years as the front man for the famed legendary rock band AC/DC. Johnson's character plays the leading role during the harrowing British campaign in "Finest Hour", for which Johnson carries an important personal connection. His father served as a Sergeant Major of the British Army's Durham Light Infantry, and Johnson brought much of his father's experience as a "Desert Rat" to his character in the game. Read more.
