As per usual with the gaming industry nowadays, EA and Starbreeze Studios have signed actors, Rosario Dawson (Seven Pounds with Will Smith) and Brian Cox (Bourne Identity) to headline the cast of Syndicate.

Dawson is a brilliant actress who often co-stars with some of Hollywood’s leading men like Will Smith (Seven Pounds) and Edward Norton (25th Hour).

“I’m amazed how videogames have become so deep in story, delivering fantastic worlds and memorable characters rivaling big Hollywood films,” said Rosario Dawson.

“I was excited when EA approached me to play Lily Drawl in Syndicate. She’s an interesting and strong female character. How cool is it to play the mastermind who designed the military chip inside the player’s head!”

Emmy Award-winning actor, Brian Cox (The Bourne Identity, X2, Troy) will be playing Jack Denham.

Both Cox and Dawson play significant roles at the top of Eurocorp’s organization featured in Syndicate.
