Scarface cast announced News

PC PlayStation 2 Xbox PSP
News by Ellie Gibson

4 May, 2006

Vivendi has unveiled the cast list for Scarface: The World is Yours, revealing that several actors who starred in the original movie will also appear in the game.

That won't include Pacino himself, since - as a Vivendi bigwig told us recently - he's getting on a bit and isn't able to do the voice any more. But you can expect to see Robert Loggia, who plays Frank Lopez, Steven Bauer (Manny Ribera) and Al Israel (Hector the Toad).

You'll also see Pacino's likeness in the game. Tony Montana's voice will be provided by an actor who was hand picked by Mr P himself, and who does rather a good job at it actually.

Making up the rest of the cast is a long list of stars, including movie veterans James Woods, Elliott Gould and Michael York, plus Richard Roundtree (Shaft!) and Rick Yune (the baddie off Die Another Day!). There will also be voice performances from Cheech, Chong and Jason Mewes (but not Silent Bob, for obvious reasons).

As for people off the telly, they've got Daniel Day Kim (Jin off of Lost), Willa Holland (Kaitlin off of The O.C.) and Ricky Gervais (is he in Fawlty Towers or something?). Oh, and Bam Margera of Jackass fame.

Stars from the world of music include Tommy Lee (who's also a star of the Internet, of course), Ice-T and N.O.R.E., plus B. Real and Sen Dog out of Cypress Hill. And as if all that wasn't enough, Vivendi says additional cast members will be announced later in the year.

Scarface: The World is Yours is out this autumn on PC, PS2, Xbox and PSP.

Translation: We don't have that much money to pay for an A-list actor.

i'd heard that pacinos' accent has been so americanised that he couldn't do the voice now that he did back then for the film.

Geez, that really is quite an impressive c-list cast. Although I have to admit, I'll be very surprised if the game doesn't suck balls. And read 'he's getting on a bit' as 'we could afford his likeness but not his voice'.

Who happens to be a fluent English speaker and has his Korean in Lost mocked by Koreans as he has had to learn it for the show? I think you'll find he's American...

More importantly, Daniel Dae Kim is Rikimaru from the Tenchu games! ... I'm thinking that's "more importantly" just to me ...

Don't really see him bringing any 'celeb' to the table as his 15 mins is surely up, right? Is he a competant voice actor or was Jade Goody just too busy to do it?

Yeah, Nas should have been in there instead of Ice-T.

Edit: Not Snoop Dogg, Ice-T silly.

Does anybody care about this stuff? Personally I don't even want to listen to talking in games nevermind the same inane celebrities that invade every other corner of life. Its a low effort way to boost the product's profile but I reckon its just a waste of cash that could have gone to more QA, extra playable content - the stuff I do notice. After all, its supposed to be a game not the latest edition of Heat.

The idea of this gets worse every minute. I'd rather have an awesome game than one featuring 'celebs', especially retards from Jackass.

Bloody hell, what is it with this fascination people have regarding Ricky Gervais?

The more the better, then everyone will be sick of the guy and he can disappear without a trace.

@Genji: "Wow, people sure seem to hate this game. Even before its out and everything."

It's not the GAME we hate, it's the fact that they're selling it by getting people like Gervais and Margera on the books as if their input is a good thing. Personally I'd rather they made a good game with no famous voice actors than an average game because they were too busy spending the dev cash on what is effectively a gimmick.

Apparently, I heard that Pacino is voicing another character in the game, but not Tony Montana, so I'm not so sure if it is a question of not being able to afford him. That may be bull, however, so don't pay me much attention! ;)

I once heard someone actually speak the words: "Ricky Gervais is much funnier than Bill Hicks."

I then spoke the words: "Get the fuck out of my caravan."

Bam Margera? In a Scarface game?
This is going to be a waste of time. The developers should give up now.

Wow, people sure seem to hate this game. Even before its out and everything.

Both a movie licence AND a GTA clone. It's a lost cause.

Pfft. Vice City was a clone of Scarface, anyway.

I'm not that optimistic about this game, but I can't just write it off after looking at a few screenies.
