Here's Charles Dance Talking About His Role in The Witcher 3

So excited for this game, and having Charles Dance voicing a character in it is a nice get.

he was the perfect cast for Tywin Lannister. good to see him in the new witcher game

He really sells it, great actor.

I don't know who this guy is, but he's now awesome in my book.

so good

Only game I've wanted to pre-order in a while. Real glad I have it, and I still have a month to wait.

YEAH, CHARLES DANCE!

Charles Dance is pretty much fantastic, the earliest movie I remember seeing him in when I was young was The Golden Child with Eddie Murphy. Great movie and he did fantastically in that as you would expect. Awesome to see him in The Witcher 3, just adds more greatness to that franchise.

@hammondoftexas I would have paid money to have Charles Dance read me Fifty Shades of Grey before I ever even considered watching the movie or reading the books myself. That was great.

@baka_shinji17: He's an actor who has played in Game of Thrones among other things

Badass

"What I saw of video games ten years ago"

Chuck was a big Oblivion fan...

Charles Dance does the ''I'm the most powerful man in this medieval universe'' better than anyone.

YOU'RE SADO NUMPSAY!

He plays Tywin Lannister, one of the smartest and most ruthless character in Game of Thrones. He's such a great actor, he really sells the image of being the most powerful person in the room.

And there's this little gem :D just to show that he doesn't take himself seriously.

Can't unsee Tywin Lannister

So he's basically playing Tywin again. XD

Imagine having him as your grandfather. I'd just follow him around all day.

Holy... the GRAVITY of this man's voice. I wonder if his voicemails sound threatening.

Charles Dance is such a cool motherfucker.

Man, what a cool trailer. He really makes me excited to hear his performance in the game. Can't wait.

This video is great. You got Charles Dance actually discussing his character motivations as well as talking about fantasy and video games as a whole. This isn't a "hey we got Troy Baker" video, this is way better than that.

If get Sir Patrick Stewart, Sir Ian McKellen and Charles Dance probably soon to be Sir. You have the holy trinity of British voice actors for any RPG.

I would even play final fantasy game if they where the main characters and that says allot because I can't stand anyone from final series.

@the_ruckus: Don't forget the late, great Tony Jay

I I I want the knife...

...

please.

It's crazy how they actually got him to do it. After Game of Thrones I imagine his price tag must have gone significantly up.

Kinda hoping they postpone it again. So much on my plate right now (poor me)

This really makes me happy to see Charles Dance do his thing with video games right.

I mean, he *is* basically Tywin in this. I don't think anyone has any problems with that. xD

Chuck D is the man.

*screams like a bewildered school girl* FUCK YEAH CHARLES DANCE!

How fucking weird is it that the last week and a half my brother and I have been quoting Golden Child, specifically "My Brother Numpsay!" and then @alex puts a Golden Child reference in the header?

Been a fan since Game of Thrones. Still a fan now.

I don't think any trailer ever has had this kind of impact on me. This is how all game trailers should be. Old men talking about how video games have changed.

Dan & Dan should totally get him to guest host on Dancers.

#thisgamelooksawesome

Second time this series have forced me to upgrade my card. Damn, but it's so worth it.

@hammondoftexas said:

They really made sure to evoke Game of Thrones with that line about fantasy media's popularity.

Charles Dance needs to get Peter Dinklage in a lavishly decorated room with a fireplace and give him a lecture on family and duty given the latter's VO performance in Destiny.

Oh god...I finally cracked and gave in to the hype. Pre-order is now in. His Numpsay-fu is strong.

Every word out of this man's mouth is like epicness embodied with a velvety smooth coating.

Word

between Dinklage's performance in Destiny and him showing up in Pixels, I think that dude's just down for getting some paycheques.

I still need to play Witcher 1 before I start 2, so that I can play this one.

@cactusapple: You actually dont. Its fine going into it fresh.

Last Action Hero

Charles Dance is wonderful, and Tywin's absolutely incredible in large part due to his performance.
