Freddie Prinze Jr. Says Dragon Age's Iron Bull Is His Favourite CHaracter

You probably know Preddie Prinze Jr. from the Scooby-Doo movies or She's All That, but he's voiced some beloved characters over the years, too, like Kanan Jarrus in Star Wars: Rebels, James Vega in Mass Effect 3, and Iron Bull in Dragon Age: Inquisition. From that whole line-up, including the movies, Iron Bull was his favourite.

"The Iron Bull is the one, that's the voice that's my favourite character I've ever played, ever. And it's a video Game," Prinze Jr. said in an interview with Original Funko. "It's not from a big movie that made $100 million, it's not from Scooby or She's All That. It's a giant bull-looking massive buff guy, and they wanted this linebacker bro voice, like 'Hey, what's up', and it didn't feel right.

"So, we started experimenting with voices... from Thunder and Pete from the Mickey Mouse club to Winston, 'We shall not flag or fail', and we eventually smushed those together and it became the Iron Bull."

Prinze Jr. said he loved the character because he was loyal and tough, but also non-judgemental, and those six weeks he spent recording lines for Dragon Age were "the most fun I ever had in my entire career". He went as far as to say that he prefers Iron Bull to Kanan, his Jedi teacher character from Rebels, despite loving Kanan.

The Iron Bull, if you haven't played Inquisition, is a giant, buff, one-eyed Qunari companion with an eyepatch, and he's the leader of the Bull's Chargers. They're a band of mercenaries who Iron Bull formed after working for Fisher's Bleeders, another company, but he wasn't fond of Fisher's management and so he formed a coup and took most of Fisher's employees with him. Just casual mercenary stuff.

Freddie Prinze. Jr voiced the two BioWare characters back-to-back, with Mass Effect 3 launching in 2012 and Dragon Age: Inquisition in 2014, so you might've noticed some feint similarities between James Vega and Iron Bull, but one stuck with him more than any other character he played. And who can blame him? Iron Bull is a hunk.

The Last Of Us Show Confirms How The Virus Spread

HBO's The Last Of Us is well and truly off and running now, its second episode airing on Sunday night. That episode confirmed a fan theory regarding how exactly the cordyceps fungus was able to spread so quickly. Be warned if you haven't seen the first two episodes of the show, the rest of this article is teeming with pretty significant spoilers. Just hours after the show premiered nine days ago, fan theories started to swirl pointing to contaminated flour being the root of what quickly becomes an effectively world-ending pandemic. That theory was confirmed to be accurate during the opening few minutes of episode two. Another flashback, this time in Indonesia, during which a mycologist examines a flour factory worker infected by cordyceps.

Magic: The Gathering’s next set, Phyrexia: All Will Be One, is currently being previewed.

With just three cards and two lands, Cacophony Scamp can wipe an opponent out as early as turn two. Even more scarily, this combo works in both Modern and Pioneer, where it could give birth to a new take on the deck known as Hammer Time. RELATED: Magic: The Gathering – Phyrexia: All Will Be One Previews As noted on Reddit, Cacophony Scamp is an unassuming 1/1 Goblin Warrior costing just one red mana. It doesn’t have haste, but it does have two big upsides: it can sacrifice itself once it’s dealt combat damage, and when it dies, it deals damage equal to its power to any other target.

Mortal Kombat 11 Fans Discover Hidden Voice Line Four Years After Launch

Mortal Kombat 11 will be four years old in April, and fans are still making new discoveries. The latest is one that was teased by NetherRealm Studios senior designer Aaron Davis back in 2020, three years ago, and as it turns out, he was hinting at a hidden voice line. "For people who like hidden stuff in MK Game s, there's something in MK11 I put in that hasn't been found yet from what I can tell," Davis tweeted (as reported by Euro Game r). "Only hint I'll give is it's done inside a match and it's been there since day 1, so not DLC related." RELATED: Marvel’s Midnight Suns' Abbey Is The Perfect Mix Of Hades And Mortal Kombat YouTuber Waz, on February 19, revealed that, after four years, the mystery had finally been cracked, and it's an old-school style easter egg.
