Don't say 'what': Sam Jackson joins Iron Man 2 voice cast photo

There's been a lot of talk about how Iron Man 2: The Video Game will sport an original narrative, as well as be much better than its predecessor, but it looks like Sega is still set to borrow from its movie tie-in. Earlier this afternoon, the publisher announced that Don Cheadle and Samuel L. Jackson will do the voice acting for their respective two film characters: War Machine and Nick Fury.

Will it rock? That much remains to be seen. But at least the box art is colorful.

Mr. Jackson did an excellent job with his VA in Afro Samurai, so hearing he's on board is certainly a plus.

The first game blew so hard, however, that I'm going to pass on the sequel. I s'pose I'm a pre-judging bastard.

Nick Fury in the comics must have had the black scared off of him. That or, David Hasselhoff was too busy charming the granny panties off of Germany.

Ultimate Nick Fury was actually modeled on Sam.

What do you mean? He's still black in the Ultimate universe. And I don't think 616 Nick Fury changed from being white (like he's always been for decades) either

This is the 'standard' one in the normal Marvel continuity (and have a movie starring Hasselhoff based on him):

I guess the actors figured they'd snag the easy money, since what's the harm in voicing a game no one will play?
