Mass Effect 3 Voice Cast Trailer Reveals New Faces

The old gang is back with a few new friends in the Mass Effect 3 Voice Cast trailer.

Marty! Trish! Greenie! And Keith David, who will not be tagged with an affectionate-but-irreverent nickname because he frightens me. They're all back in Mass Effect 3, once more lending their distinguished voices to the characters we know and love: the Illusive Man, EDI, Joker and the redoubtable Admiral Anderson, who knows that sometimes diplomacy is best served with a knuckle sandwich. Jennifer Hale is also returning as the female voice of Commander Shepard - no surprise there - while Ali Hillis is back as a harder, darker Liara T'Soni.

Joining the cast for their first kick at the galaxy-saving can, meanwhile, are Freddie Prinze Jr., AKA Mr. Sarah Michelle Gellar, as no-nonsense soldier James "Jimmy V" Vega, and Jessica Chobot, best known for licking a PSP, who turns up as intrepid reporter and tight jumpsuit wearer Diana Allers.

Other returning voice actors include Mark Meer as Commander Shepard, Yvonne Strahovski as Miranda, Carrie-Anne Moss as Aria T'Loak and Lance Henriksen as Admiral Hackett, but since they weren't in the trailer they don't get a proper shout-out. Mass Effect 3 comes out on March 6 for the Xbox 360, PlayStation 3 and PC.
