Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order is a great game with a lot of action. But the developers, Respawn, have made sure that the story and its characters are at the center of the game. So who are the voices behind the characters?
Cameron Monaghan plays Cal Kestis
Cameron Monaghan is a household name for those who enjoy Fox's DC series Gotham. The youngster played Jerome and Jeremiah Valeska, who represented the unique spectacle of the Joker, Batman's most important foe, without actually becoming the iconic villain. He has been a staple in the series throughout its run. You can also catch him Shameless as Ian Gallagher, Amityville: Awakening as James, the DC animated film Reign of the Superman as Superboy, and much more.
Jedi: Fallen Order is Monaghan's first video game. He plays Cal Kestis, the main character of the game, a Jedi padawan who survived Order 66 and fled the Empire.
Debra Wilson Cere players
Getting new players in video games is never a bad thing, but veterans should always feel welcome. Debra Wilson has been in more games than many have played. She was in Days Gone as Addison Walker, The Outer Worlds as Sophia Akande, and she played a host of characters in Fallout: New Vegas, in addition to her many roles in other games.
In Jedi: Fallen Order, Wilson plays Cere, the mysterious Jedi mentor who helps Cal on his journey. We don't have many details about her yet, but we do know that she will play a vital role in Cal's survival in the game to escape the Empire.
Ben Burtt plays BD-1
Every Star Wars character needs a worthy droid companion. Cal gets his own in BD-1, a brand new model of droid created for the game. The voice behind the little mate is Ben Burtt, a great Star Wars veteran. No, he hasn't appeared in the movies, but he was the sound designer for Star Wars episodes one through seven. He is the creative mind that helped create the iconic lightsaber buzz and was involved in the the droids' first beeps and whistles.
Considering that Burtt has a long history of the franchise, it is fitting for him to provide the iconic sound cues for the game's droid, BD-1.
Daniel Roebuck plays Greez
A fleeing Jedi padawan needs a place to call home and feel safe. This is where Greez comes in offering his ship, the Stinger Mantis, as a refuge for Cal on his journey. Daniel Roebuck voices the voice of the four-armed ship captain. Roebuck is an American actor who has appeared on several television shows, such as Agents of SHIELD, Criminal Minds, Star Trek: The Mission Continues, Grimm, and The Man in the High Castle.
Players will use Greez's Stinger Mantis to travel to different locations and use it as a base.
Forest Whitaker plays Saw Gerrera
Notable Saw Gerrera, the destructive rebel who takes operations to the extreme, also appears. Gerrera is played by veteran actor Forest Whitaker, who first played the role in the movie Thief One and voiced the character on the TV show, Star Wars Rebels. Fans will recognize Whitaker from his work in Black Panther, Lee Daniel's The Butler, Where The Wild Things Are, and The Last King of Scotland, for which he received an Oscar for his performance.
Star Wars fans have grown used to seeing Gerrera over the years. He first appeared on the Star Wars animated TV show The Clone Wars, and since then he's been causing trouble for the Empire and making the Rebels look like terrorists, not freedom fighters.
Gideon Emery
Right now, there is a mystery who Gideon Emery will be playing on. Many know Emery for his work as Burn the Chopper from Middle-earth: Shadow of War, Governor Sloan from Halo 5: Guardians, Samson from Dragon Age: Inquisition, Fergus Reid from Wolfenstein: The New Order, and many other notable roles. .
Ahead of the game's release, we're not quite sure who Emery is up to playing. EA and Respawn are keeping a close eye on all story details, but plenty of people are suggesting that he will play an older character, potentially Darth Maul or Obi-wan Kenobi. However, if anyone were to play Darth Maul, it would be Sam Witwer, who voiced the character in the animated film Clone Wars and Star Wars Solo.
