Adam Baldwin (Animal Mother from
Full Metal Jacket) is no stranger to science-fiction or voicework in games; if you only recognize him as "the guy who shot the Coke can off the spaceship in
Independence Day," you haven't been keeping up. However, if you're into sci-fi television, he needs no introduction; he's had major roles in
Firefly /
Serenity and
Chuck. Most recently, Baldwin portrayed the gruff Kal'Reegar of the Quarian Migrant Fleet Marines in
Mass Effect 2. His role? The one and only Superman.
For every Superman, there must be a Lex Luthor. In the case of DC Universe Online, they've settled for an ironic choice. James Marsters (Buffy the Vampire Slayer's Spike and most ironically Smallville's Brainiac) will portray the bald kryptonite-wielding megalomaniac.
