Troy Baker Redefines Indiana Jones in Upcoming Video Game
The veteran voice actor blends homage and originality in his portrayal of the iconic adventurer for 'Indiana Jones and the Great Circle,' releasing December 9th.
- Troy Baker, known for roles in 'The Last of Us' and 'Bioshock Infinite,' voices Indiana Jones in the first major game for the franchise in over a decade.
- Baker initially doubted the project, recommending other actors, but won the role after a rigorous audition process involving comparisons to Harrison Ford's voice.
- Director Tom Keegan encouraged Baker to avoid imitating Harrison Ford, instead focusing on capturing the essence of Indiana Jones with authenticity.
- Baker underwent extensive preparation, including whip training, horseback riding, and studying Ford's movements, to embody the role physically and emotionally.
- The game, set between 'Raiders of the Lost Ark' and 'The Last Crusade,' launches December 9th for PC, Xbox Series X/S, and Xbox Game Pass.
