Liam Neeson to voice Fallout 3

Liam 'Jedi Knight' Neeson will voice the lead role in Bethesda Softwork's role-playing sequel Fallout 3, the company has revealed.

Neeson, who sports a beard the calibre of which young Mike Jackson can only envy, will play the role of the player's father and will appear prominently throughout the game.

"This role was written with Liam in mind, and provides the dramatic tone for the entire game," said Todd Howard, executive producer of Fallout 3.

"It's been a pleasure bringing the father to life and working with the wonderfully talented people at Bethesda on Fallout 3," said Neeson. "I hope the fans of the franchise and the game will be excited by the results."
