And This Other Hitman: Absolution Video Introduces You to Vivica A. Fox, Who Plays 'The Head Nun'

It's nice to see a mainstream actress be totally authentically excited to be in a video game and not just feign enthusiasm for the whole thing. Oh, wait...

I wish she was honest about the final question and said she was very happy being paid to be apart of the series

Vivica Fox is really bad at interviews. 
 
Anyway, she was awesome in Kill Bill but (imo) there's a different skill set of actor in video games, and I doubt she really adds anything to the game haha 
It's cool shes in it... I guess

The nun's trailer nearly killed all excitement any one had for this game and now they are making a follow up to it.

Perfect example of a bad PR company.

"Hitman 5"

"The Head Nun"

"The Hitman"

Man, she must've been really excited about that script to memorize all of the characters and the motivation behind them all. -_-

"Been in a video game before?"

"This is one of the first experiences I've had but its a lot like making a movie because of green screen bla bla bla."

Nice double speak, certainly an endearing personality trait.

So she's willing to say bitch, but not ass.

I find these celebrity videos are usually odd. They come off very phony. Please don't pretend you either know about or care about the medium because I can smell your bullshit through my fucking screen.

Ok, now it's clear. The marketing department is actively trying to stop people from buying this game.

I like how they were talking on the podcast about how much goodwill Hitman was earning back with the China mission and then the PR department just goes nuts with this nonsense again. HEY, REMEMBER THAT CRAZY TRAILER YOU ALL LOVED? How do these PR people keep their jobs when all they're doing is making this game look so much worse?

Exactly. Cynical is where Alex lives though, so the sub-header is no surprise. And comments are predictably snarky as well.

This role makes sense. She did a good job in the Kill Bill series. I'm excited to see what she does in the game.

Tbf, she starts off as a great character in that show, then becomes a pain in the ass. Quite why they felt the need to cast her in this, though, no idea...

..wow...yeah people need to relax she seemed fine in the interview. It's not like she lied about being a fan of hit-man all her life or anything. Vivca is not hurting for money so she simply thought it was something cool to do and get paid for it. I mean she did kill bill and trained for 6 month for just one fight sequence, it not like she needed to do all that just for a movie pay check. It was again something fun to do and get paid for it.

Wow. Nope. 30 seconds in, and I couldn't stand it. I sincerely hope this is just marketing from the same team who made that first awful trailer, and won't affect the game ... but only time can tell, I guess.

Yeah, a bunch of people were probably put off by that sub header. Yet she's just talking about her role in the game. Sure it's not essential information but can people just be given the videos. If her character ends up being sick then people can go fuck themselves with their us vs. them mentality of video games.

I still don't know why people who work on something should not be proud of their work i.e. Vivica Fox being proud of here work in this game? What is so wrong with that? So in essence, everyone who is somewhat known and ends to work on a game, must hate his work and completely and utterly dislike the game or else his is faking enthusiasm?

She most likely has no clue about the Hitman series aside what she was told, she still can be proud of her work put into this game and which character she portrays in it, nothing wrong with that and I think that's genuine, as for praising the game, yes well what the hell do you expect her to say; "Nah, it's like you know a job, I don't care much for it, i got paid and I did that, that's all that matters to me."

Nobody would do that, even tho it might be the truth, it's like watching "making of" of any move, how long are they making those, did once any actor say anything bad about it? I almost guarantee, not.

Are some of you seriously questioning whether Vivica A. Fox is a mainstream actress and suggesting that people don't remember her? I mean the ridiculous constant cynicism is one thing but...

Oh wait, I forgot what makes up the vast majority of GB's users. Well, yes, she is a fairly respected and loved mainstream actress. I mean she's no Felicia Day...
