Naughty Dog's Next Game, Intergalactic: The Heretic Prophet, Unveils Star-Studded Cast
The 2024 Game Awards culminated in the exciting reveal of Naughty Dog's next title, Intergalactic: The Heretic Prophet, boasting a remarkable ensemble cast. Let's delve into the major actors and the confirmed cast list.
Key Actors and Characters:
Tati Gabrielle as Jordan A. Mun:
The game introduces 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 game. Fans of Naughty Dog's work will recognize her as Jo Braddock from the Uncharted film, and she's also set to appear in HBO's The Last of Us Season 2 as Nora.
Kumail Nanjiani as Colin Graves:
The trailer revealed Kumail Nanjiani as Colin Graves, Jordan Mun's target and a member of the enigmatic Five Aces. Nanjiani, a celebrated comedian with successful stand-up specials and roles in shows like HBO's Silicon Valley and films such as The Big Sick and Marvel's Eternals, brings his considerable talent to this new role. His next stand-up tour begins in January 2025.
Tony Dalton as an Unnamed Character:
A newspaper clipping in the game's trailer shows Tony Dalton, recognizable to Better Call Saul viewers as Lalo Salamanca, among the Five Aces. While his character remains a mystery, Dalton's MCU experience (as Jack Duquesne in Hawkeye) further elevates the game's cast.
The Expanding Cast:
Troy Baker, a frequent collaborator with Naughty Dog's Neil Druckmann (confirmed in a November 2024 GQ interview), will also feature in Intergalactic: The Heretic Prophet. Baker's extensive video game credits include Joel in The Last of Us and Sam Drake in Uncharted 4.
Speculation points to Halley Gross, known for her writing on Westworld and The Last of Us Part II, possibly portraying Mun's agent, AJ, although this remains unconfirmed.
Intergalactic: The Heretic Prophet currently lacks a release date.
