David Tennant is best known for his role as the tenth Doctor in BBC's Doctor Who. While there is many good actors who've played the Doctor over the years, none of them have had performances that have stayed with me as long as that of Tennant.

His emotions adapt greatly to many situations throughout the series as shown in the video below:


This would appeal to another audience (mainly, Doctor Who fans) and attract a different voice than a gruff tough mean guy that most games with voice acting try to go for, he can pull off the various roles that a main character requires without pushing it into weird zone (for example, the Mass Effect 2 romance dialogue from Mark Meer is a little creepy).

Thoughts?

Edited:

Since there's a lot of people saying his voice is too high pitch for the stereotypical warrior voice (I disagree, but that's my opinion) and since there has been a lot of ideas about him being an NPC based off his Doctor Who appearances as a crazy physician or a companion, I've changed the thread to accommodate these beliefs and hopefully drag in more discussion!

WOO!

I'm all for it on the one condition that none of the companions are named Donna or Astrid.

I have no desire to spend all of DA2 weeping like a tiny child.

Tom Baker would kick his butt and you know it!



I can't believe I remember that guy's name. I watched those old episodes with my dad when I was little. I haven't seen much of this new guy, mainly because I haven't watched Dr. Who since. It's kind of like expecting Sean Connery to be James Bond perhaps.

No. We need a voice that can do justice to the beard. If he voiced Hawke we'd be completely unable to play the game because Hawke's beard would have an absolute duty to start kicking Hawke's ass every single time he opens his mouth.

While an amazing Doctor... I'm not sure if I could see him as, say, big evil warrior...

Besides, they've probably already gotten voices.

[MarchWaltz]

If the actor has to be british, then it has to be rowan atikson.

Let him do his scottish accent then.

Tennant is scottish, though. He's like that guy from house but with a british accent instead.

Nothing says bravery, strength and courage like the vocal stylizations and incoherent mumblings of British actor Hugh Grant!

We hear Hawke likes going to the Pearl on vacation alot too.

Oh god no.

All Dr. Who's should appear in this game. Eccleston is a particularly good actor

[Laine the Wise]

I still say that Gerard Butler will be the portrayer of male Hawke.

I'll be fine with this provided that each dialogue option has a button that makes him kick the people into wells.

Gerard Butler only does romantic movies, this apparition of him in 300 is false ALL CG I TELL YOU TIS A CONSIPIRACY



He's no Fabio

But he had to lend his voice to the CG, thus.. he'd be doing the same thing! Vocally kicking people down wells!

[Pelem]

That would be pretty awesome. David Tennant, that is.



Great, now I feel the need to get out my Dr. Who DVDs...

[grandmasterpea]

This would be awesome. Or he could voice a quirky mage companion, like a
healer.....or some sort of....Doctor? [smilie]../../../images/forum/emoticons/joyful.png[/smilie]

I'd really like to see Kirk Acevedo as Hawke. Though I'll admit that I'm not entirely sure if he's the best choice since Fereldans are, you know... British... and Kirk isn't. But he is versatile in his delivery. He can make a good serious character. Or a snarky one. But the biggest thing I like about him as a VA, is that he can be tough without sounding like some gruff space marine.

Here are a few examples: Exibit A
                                                Exibit B (Big spoiler for the Darkness. You've Been warned. He only talks for the last 10 seconds of the video, but I always get chills when he opens his mouth.)

You will be pleasantly suprised! The Free Marches is a land of many wells with a consistantly lush farmland. Every finishing move involves kicking darkspawn, human, dwarven, elven or qunari oppenents into wells. These wells are positioned strategicly throughout the land and you will have to remember where the large ones are for ogres and dragons. Along your journey you will find numerous magical boots to aid in your well kicking adventures, along with a wisecracking fluffy squirrel sidekick named "Nutters."

Touche.

I'd just be happy with Tennant in general, I'd much prefer him as Hawke but this above reference would be brilliant.

Having him having a sonic wand and his personal outhouse that's larger on the inside would be too much, though.

[ScorpSt]

I don't think he'd make a good Hawke. I would like to see him do another voice in the game. One more suited to him. I stand by the belief that Hawke should be voiced by an unknown, or at least a professional voice actor.

[Xoanon69]

Tom Baker would be perfect (and adding a talking cabbage would be the icing on the cake). Tennant with his constant shouting and screaming will just give everyone a headache after a couple of hours.

[KLUME777]

This would be good, but i think I'd rather David Tenant to play the DA 2 Alistair replacement.

I want a female Alistair replacement..

oh wait, Tennant as a female character would be brilliant! Nobody would see it coming!
