Darlings, Insomniac’s Wolverine just dropped its full voice cast, and Liam McIntyre is stepping into Logan’s claws — the Spartacus alum and Gears of War vet bringing that Australian grit to the adamantium rage machine. Troy Baker slides into Nathaniel Essex (Mister Sinister) with his signature gravitas, while Krizia Bajos (Barry, Sims 4, Miles Morales) takes Jean Grey, rounding out a mo-cap-heavy ensemble that includes Nicole Pacent as Mystique, Brett Gipson as Sabretooth, and Debra Wilson as Callisto.
The cast lands right before the PS5 launch tomorrow, with McIntyre drawing from Hugh Jackman, Cal Dodd, and Steve Blum while adding his own vulnerable edge to the character’s bottomless fury. Baker’s Essex role has been an open secret for ages, confirmed in recent features, and the whole lineup leans on actors who’ve done the heavy lifting in big-budget games and TV.
Community chatter is already buzzing about the face-model choice — Logan’s model is reportedly based on McIntyre himself for mo-cap sync — and X posts range from hype (“he owns the part”) to the usual “why not Steve Blum” gripes. Insomniac’s betting the star power and motion-capture polish will carry the weight when the claws come out.
