Tricia Helfer to star in Halo ODST News

Xbox 360 News by Ellie Gibson

29 May, 2009

Battlestar Galactica star Tricia Helfer is to star in Halo 3: ODST.

"I love doing videogames," said Helfer, speaking during Spike TV's pre-E3 special.

"I'm not allowed to give details, but I'm allowed to say my character's name is Dare."

Helfer played model number Six in the remade series of Battlestar Galactica, which we still haven't finished so no spoilers please. She has the best teeth in the world.

Halo 3: ODST is out this autumn. Check out the gamepage for all the info released so far, and expect more news from E3 next week.

She's actually a really good actress, which is often forgotten considering she's hotter than hell during an useasonably hot summer.

Dare we dream that we would be able to be daring with sexy Dare?

In a Halo game to boot!

She was absolutely fantastic in BSG from beginning to end. I see her as New Mombasa's municipal AI, perhaps?

If I remember rightly, the transmissions from 'DARE.V' in the teaser stuff before the trailer arrived were the Oni S1 officer.

Interesting character to play.

Surely I wasn't the only one to misread that as "Dave"?

10 to 1 that this expansion pack will sell shitloads better than any other full-blown fps released this year save MW2. :/

It's not an 'expansion pack', not even close.

Beautiful woman and a great actress to boot. Her work in the sublime BSG was quality.

ODST is easily my most anticipated game of the year, and this announcement is a nice sprinkle of Parmigiano Reggiano on the spicy Halo meatball.

Goddamit, now I've gone and made myself hungry and horny.

Something tells me Tricia isn't as keen on videogames as she lets on.

But it's Tricia, so all is forgiven. Fantastic actress.

TBH, considering that Halo 3 was . . . what . . . 10 hours tops in the campaign for any competent player? ODST could be considered an expansion pack in context to that.

I'm looking forward to the inevitable Ellie interview with Tricia.

Yes, I googled her too. SMOKING.

Is it wrong that I actually thought she was better looking when her hair was darker in BSG?

Not that she was bad looking as a blonde either!

I don't disagree that Tricia is indeed smoking hot. But I'd swap two #6's for one #8 anyday. ^_^

Ellie, you're always so spot-on with your cunning observations; Tricia has FABULOUS nashers, huge, long, pristine toofs.

Did you know Tricia is Canadian? Yes...

Her teeth are amazing. They could probably blind someone because they're so bright.

Nothing to do with length. This is a very, very different shooter. Just wait, and watch.
