Breaking Bad's Aaron Paul Explains Why He Finally Did A Video Game

Aaron Paul, the acclaimed actor from "Breaking Bad," has decided to lend his voice to the upcoming video game "Dispatch." This marks his first foray into the world of video games, as the 46-year-old actor is often selective when it comes to various project pitches. What drew Paul to the game was a particular scene that "really resonated" with him, where two characters engage in a conversation on top of a billboard. After reading the scripts, he found himself "falling in love with the story" and connected with the creators behind the project. Alongside Paul, "Dispatch" also features the voices of Oscar-nominated actor Jeffrey Wright, as well as Laura Bailey and Matthew Mercer. The game, developed by AdHoc Studio, follows the story of a former superhero, played by Paul, who now works as a dispatcher for superheroes. While this is Paul's first video game role, he has previously starred in the 2014 film "Need for Speed," which was based on the popular EA racing game franchise. "Dispatch" is set to launch on October 22 for PlayStation 5 and PC, with a free demo currently available on Steam.
