The Green Mile actor Barry Pepper to voice Prototype lead
Other voices confirmed for Prototype include NYPD Blue's Gordon Clap and CSI's Paul Guilfoyle, both of which publisher Sierra note as being appropriate additions to the cast given the game's "uniquely mysterious and conspiracy-filled plot." Prototype is expected to change shape and smash New York City later this year for the Xbox 360, PS3, and PC.

At first I thought you meant John Coffey, like the drink, just not spelt the same.

He was also the sniper in Saving Private Ryan, but I can't think of his character's name right now.
Derick @ Feb 4th 2008 8:09PM
He's also in We Were Soldiers.
It became a running gag in my US history class.
SPOT BARRY PEPPER!
Is he in Pearl Harbor?
he should have been.
Ben affleck and that other guy....they are tools.

as well as the 'Bill & Ted' movies as Bill S. Preston, Esq. Excellent!
Jake @ Feb 4th 2008 9:40PM
That's not him, Bill is played by Alex Winter.

poop! you're right

That guy looks like Altair from Assassins' Creed mated with a dinosaur and started wearing a sweater vest. The guy in the picture, not Barry Pepper.
Sam406 @ Feb 4th 2008 8:25PM
Hey your right, though I can't tell which I have bigger problems with, the horribly deformed reptilian skin, the vest or the fact that you suggested that Altair had a night of passion with a crocodile.

He appears to have been quite prominent in Battlefield Earth, as well.
Heh.

And here, I thought I was the only one who would remember Barry saving the world from the menace that is John Travolta's Dreadlocks.

...not to mention Forrest Whitaker's lazy-eye
Deck @ Feb 4th 2008 8:50PM
Sweet!
I'm looking forward to this games potential. It could actually be really fun, it could also bomb. But, only time will tell that one I guess.
Jose @ Feb 4th 2008 9:09PM
His most prominent role was Roger Marris in 61* written and directed by Billy Crystal.

Aruges @ Feb 4th 2008 11:49PM
Oh, come on. You guys don't remember Barry Pepper's leading role in 'Battlefield Earth'?
Obie @ Feb 4th 2008 11:55PM
For a moment there I read "Brian Peppers"
BRIAN No!
Autopsy15 @ Feb 5th 2008 12:09AM
Was he in Starship Troopers?
bamb0o-stick @ Feb 5th 2008 6:38AM
Barry Pepper seems to be in a ton of historical war movies. He was also in Flags of Our Fathers, and also one of the goons in Enemy of the State.
AJ @ Feb 5th 2008 7:27AM
You all are CRAZY! Barry Pepper's seminal role was that of "The Intimidator," Dale Earnhardt in ESPN's film making masterpiece, "3." The greatest film ever committed to celuloid.
While he was not eligible for an Oscar for that role, his big huge mustache won a SAG award for the performance! Pepper himself however, is still awardless.
Oh yeah, Pepper was also on an episode of "Highlander" where he played a long haired Immortal who got his punk-ass head cut off by Duncan MacLeod (Of the Clan MacLeod, Sucka!).
Orangecoke @ Feb 5th 2008 10:12AM
Pretty cool actor actually. And yep, for me his most memorable role is the sniper from SPR. He was awesome in that :)
Leobebes @ Feb 5th 2008 2:45PM
Too bad he is a prominent Scientologist.
Shelley @ Mar 5th 2008 3:48AM
