A Kotaku tipster seems to have stumbled upon a casting call for "a character for a new game in the Portal series from Valve Software" on subscribers-only actors resource
Breakdown Express. The posting is loaded with character details for the game's "principal antagonist," including his history, demeanor and general outlook on life. The posting even details how the character's psychology changes as the story progresses, hinting at some intriguing story possibilities for the sequel to our
top game of 2007.
If you don't mind having such important details spoiled
at least seven months before the game is released,
follow the read link and, er, read all about it. Or, if you're a voice actor who can handle "dark comedy ... with occasional dramatic moments" starting next month, why not try out for a piece of video game immortality?

If there is anything in Portal in need of VO, its gotta be the weighted companion cube. Its catch phrase would be "Too hip to NOT be square". High-larious.

Kombo actually has a sample of the script:

I'm so excited to see the direction that they're going to take this series. I seriously have no idea how they can top the first, but then again, we thought that about Half Life. *fingers crossed*
