Was it him?

And will he have an actual role in the game? :celebration:

» Sat May 28, 2011 2:04 am

General consensus is yes and probably yes.

Who's Max von Sydow? He sounds like some sort of comic book villain.

'Cuz I'm to lazy to search google.

Even though he's done a couple of junk movies like "Flash Gordon", he's a highly respected Swedish actor known for his roles in Bergman movies and in "The Greatest Story Ever Told".

He was in Strange Brew, that'd be hilarious if he was part of the game.

Oh yeah, that guy, didn't react on the name, not that interrested in actors, but I recognize him now, by the IDM pictures. The most important thing though, is the voice^^

Yeah.. even after looking at his imdb page I have no idea who he is.

Even though I've seen a handful of those movies.

Now, if it was Malcolm McDowell I'd be excited.

It could be, I definitely felt that the narrator was familiar, I'm still not sure if its Max Von Shadow or not.

» Sat May 28, 2011 6:24 am

I'm quite sure it is. The actor definitely sounds like he's Swedish.

And don't forget the movie Judge Dredd

At any rate, a great voice to use for the trailer. He really made things come alive :goodjob:

The Seventh Seal. Awesome.

I'm not at all familiar with Max Von Sydow's work... I recognize his face from a few movies but that's about it. Anyway, I just went on youtube and watched a few interviews with him and I got to say his voice, at least to me, sounds nothing like the voice in the trailer. Are we sure Max Von Sydow is the guy from the teaser?

» Sat May 28, 2011 8:14 am

Yep, the one and only.

His knowledge of the Elder Scrolls' contents narrows his character to only a couple potential choices... So, my bet is his character's a Ysgrimskald, which are prophets in the Atmoran tradition.

Hey losers don't forget he played Vigo in Ghostbusters 2 :rock:

Edit: well, his voice at least

» Fri May 27, 2011 11:24 pm

the actor sounds like he just has a mouth full of cotton

» Sat May 28, 2011 8:27 am

Regardless of who he is, he is the best voice actor for the job.

When I first heard it I thought it was Christopher Lee :lol:

Christopher Plummer>Max Von Sydow
