Turok, one of the old Acclaim’s better properties, is getting a next-gen makeover and a Hollywood voice cast as well. Josh Holmes, VP of developer Propaganda Games talks about the importance of good voice acting in a game and what it’s been like to work with the cast.

Disney Interactive Studios has enlisted the help of veteran Hollywood television and movie actors to breathe life into next year’s relaunch of the Turok game franchise, which debuts on Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3 February 5, 2008.

The first-person shooter features the voice acting of Gregory Norman Cruz (Saving Grace) as former black ops commando Joseph Turok. He’s crash-landed on a planet inhabited by dinosaurs with members of Whiskey Company. Actors who make up this elite special forces squad include: Timothy Olyphant (Hitman) as Cowboy, Ron Perlman (Hellboy) as Slade, Donnie Wahlberg (Saw II) as Shepard, William Fichtner (Prison Break) as Logan, Mark Rolston (The Departed) as Cole, Chris Judge (StarGate: SG1) as Jericho, Lombardo Boyar (Happy Feet) as Gonzales, Gideon Emery (Primevil) as Reese, Josh Gomez (Chuck) as Parker, Jon Curry (7th Heaven) as Foster, Jason Harris (The Wild) as Carter and Steve Van Wormer (TimeCop 2) as Henderson.

Rounding out the cast, Powers Boothe (Deadwood) breathes life into the villain, Roland Kane, an escaped war criminal and Turok’s former mentor. Sean Donnellan (The Kingdom) voices Grimes, Kane’s mysterious, elusive henchman, who is also part of the evil Mendel-Gruman Corporation.
