Treyarch revealed some interesting things about the upcoming Call of Duty: Black Ops 3 at a panel at San Diego Comic-Con, and IGN was there to hear it first-hand. Its no surprise that Black Ops 3 will have a Zombies mode. Its cast, however, is very surprising.
The Zombies mode will feature performances from Jeff Goldblum, Ron Perlman, Robert Picardo, Neal McDonough, and Heather Graham.
Thats a pretty impressive roster from a nerd reference perspective, starting with Jeff Golblum. Hes the man whose ums and ers have garnered oohs and ahs as the nebbishy, neurotic science guy in Jurassic Park and Independence Day. He was also Verminous Skumm in Captain Planet. Oh, hes a prolific and varied actor whos been in a ton of things, but lets focus on whats important: aliens, dinosaurs, and whatever Captain Planet was.
Ron Perlman needs no introduction, at least if you have everplayed Fallout (hes Mr. War Never Changes) or watched Hellboy. He also was the voice of Slade in Teen Titans, the Lich in Adventure Time, and Clayface and Orion in the DCAU. He also had a role in some show about motorcycles Im told is pretty good.
Robert Picardo is best known as the Emergency Medical Hologram in (and one of the best parts of) Star Trek: Voyager. He was also Richard Woolsey in Stargate: SG-1 and Stargate: Atlantis, and has made an appearance in nearly every remotely nerdy show and police procedural made in the last 15 years (Chuck, Smallville, Supernatural, Castle, Bones, CSI:NY, Hawaii Five-O, NTSF:SD:SUV, and the list goes on). He was also in Call of Duty: Black Ops 2, so his appearance in this game isnt a huge surprise.
Neal McDonough is Dum-Dum Dugan the Marvel Cinematic Universe, and played prominent roles in Band of Brothers, Desperate Housewives, and Suits. He also played the inexplicably Irish M. Bison in Street Fighter: The Legend of Chun-Li.Heather Graham has been in a ton of stuff (Californication, Scrubs), but her most important role? Annie Blackburn in Twin Peaks.
As for their roles, Picardo plays a liar, McDonough plays a pottymouth, Perlman plays a badass, and Graham plays a burlesque dancer. Its not clear what Goldblum plays, but it will probably involve the words nebbishy and/or arrogant.
