Activision signs a squadron of actors to voice several of the main characters for Call of Duty 2: Big Red One.

Further immersing gamers into the gritty intensity of World War II, Activision have signed seven actors to join the cast, including:

• Michael Cudlitz (credits include "Band of Brothers," "Live From Baghdad," "The Negotiator")
• Rick Gomez (credits include "Band of Brothers," "Ray," "Sin City")
• Frank John Hughes (credits include "Band of Brothers," "Catch Me If You Can")
• James Madio (credits include "Band of Brothers," "Shark Tale")
• Ross McCall (credits include "Band of Brothers," "EMR," "Hooligans")
• Rene L. Moreno (credits include "Band of Brothers," "Last Flight Out")

Building on the Call of Duty brand's hallmark cinematic, epic intensity of war, Call of Duty 2: Big Red One recreates the U.S. Army's famed Fighting 1st Infantry Division, known as the Big Red One, among the most decorated units ever, through a continuous storyline of legendary battles of WWII.

The new Call of Duty also utilises an all-new battle chatter system to provide authentic in-combat dialogue, delivering the ultimate wartime experience.

Big Red One is in development by Gray Matter and Treyarch and slated for release this Autumn/Winter for the Cube, PS2 and Xbox.
