Laura Bailey (Critical Role, Legend of Vox Machina, The Last of Us Part II) will take on the voice role of the massively popular, fan-favorite character Halfpipe in the narrative-videogame adaptation of beloved, bestselling comic series Godkiller by writer Matteo Pizzolo and artist Anna Muckcracker Wieszczyk.
Bailey joins previously announced castmember Aya Cash (The Boys, You’re The Worst) in the dark-fantasy videogame about a team of anti-heroes who’ve survived their world’s descent into dystopia and undertake a vendetta against the cruel men and strange deities responsible for the end of the world.
Bailey will be taking on the iconic role of Halfpipe, introduced in 2008’s self-distributed ‘Godkiller #1’ as a street kid buying herself out of slavery through organ stealing before joining a campaign through the savage land of Outer City to find a new heart for a dying girl. In the nearly fifteen years since her debut, Halfpipe has developed into a time-traveling sorceress appearing in crossover comics with other universes, adorning numerous tattoos and even vinyl record picture discs, and has been illustrated by guest artists including Ben Templesmith, Maria Llovet, Leila del Duca, Tim Seeley, The Wolf Maria, Natasha Alterici, Riley Rossmo, Alexis Ziritt, Jasmin Darnell, Amancay Nahuelpan, and more, most recently in a stunning set of paintings by Nen Chang and Liz Tecca.
Produced by Emmy-winner Brian Giberson (Power On: The Story Of Xbox), the project leads a new gaming initiative at Black Mask Entertainment, the busy production arm with more than two dozen features and series in development at studios and networks.
