Naughty Dog Unveils Star-Studded Cast for Intergalactic: The Heretic Prophet
The 2024 Game Awards culminated in the exciting reveal of Naughty Dog's next title, Intergalactic: The Heretic Prophet. This new IP boasts an impressive ensemble cast, blending established talent with familiar faces from the gaming world. Here's a breakdown of the major actors and confirmed cast members:
Tati Gabrielle as Jordan A. Mun
The game centers around Jordan A. Mun, a formidable bounty hunter unexpectedly stranded in orbit around the planet Sempiria. Portrayed by Tati Gabrielle, known for her roles in Chilling Adventures of Sabrina, You, and Kaleidoscope, Gabrielle's presence adds significant weight to the project. Fans of Naughty Dog's work will recognize her as Jo Braddock from the Uncharted film adaptation. She's also slated to appear in HBO's The Last of Us Season 2.
Kumail Nanjiani as Colin Graves
The announcement trailer revealed several actors, including comedian Kumail Nanjiani. He plays Colin Graves, Jordan Mun's target and a member of the enigmatic Five Aces. Nanjiani's extensive comedic background, spanning stand-up, television (Silicon Valley), and film (The Big Sick, Eternals), brings a unique dimension to the cast.
Tony Dalton as an Unnamed Character
A newspaper clipping in the trailer showcases Tony Dalton, recognizable to Better Call Saul fans as Lalo Salamanca. While his role in Intergalactic remains undisclosed, his MCU appearance in Hawkeye further underscores the game's high-profile casting.
Additional Cast Members & Speculation
Troy Baker, a frequent collaborator with Naughty Dog's Neil Druckmann, is confirmed to appear. His extensive voice acting credits (including Joel in The Last of Us and Sam in Uncharted 4) hint at a significant role.
While unconfirmed, many believe that Mun's agent, AJ, bears a striking resemblance to Halley Gross, a writer known for her work on Westworld and The Last of Us Part II.
Intergalactic: The Heretic Prophet currently lacks a release date.
