Voice actor for Alexander

[kindofdoon]

I remember reading or watching something that indicated that Michael Fortunato is voicing him; is this accurate?

[KatieHal]

Yup! Wow, it was really way back when that we cast him, 2004 at the voice over auditions! But we heard Mike read and were all in agreement--he was our Alex!

[kindofdoon]

Cool. All this talk of Alexander is making me really anxious about Episode 2...so excited...!

[Haids1987]

Wow, I didn't know that!  I remember an old, old voice clip of Alexander and Sarah talking about Connor, and I really liked the voice pick for Alexander.  Knowing who voices him makes it all the better now!

[kindofdoon]

Yup, I still have that file!

[Haids1987]

  I used to listen to it sometimes late at night when I was yearning for TSL, scouring the site for any clip or tidbit whatsoever.

Do share!

THANK YOU!  *Wraps in a bear hug*

[kindofdoon]

You're very welcome. I have another of Edgar and Graham, do you want that too?

[Haids1987]

Sure!  Thanks so much!

[kindofdoon]

Here's another of Edgar and Graham.

LOL, where DO you get these, kindofdoon?

[kindofdoon]

When TSL was hit by the second C&D, I went into the Internet Archive (which archives copies of almost every website) and saved every single piece of TSL media I could find: music, pictures, videos, letters, anything.

At that time, I thought TSL was gone forever...it was a very sad time for me. I wanted to preserve anything I could find so that I could remember the game I loved so much. I'm infinitely happy that the project is going forward now.

[KatieHal]

Wow. Hardcore!  And awww

Though I haven't listened to these yet, I feel I should mention that not all of these conversations, etc, will necessarily still be in the game--and even if they are, they may be edited from what you've heard before.

[Haids1987]

We know.   It's just fun having a piece of TSL--music AND voices!--in our computer, whether they're in the game or not.

[KatieHal]

Oh go for it! I think it's great! I just wanted to put that out there so people were aware is all.

[Haids1987]

Just listening to the voices get me all excited for Episode 2. I absolutely LOVE the choice for Graham--Jason IS King Graham!

[kindofdoon]

Agreed.

[Lambonius]

I absolutely LOVE the choice for Graham--Jason IS King Graham!

I love Graham's voice, too.  Not so excited about that Alexander though, I have to say.  The voice seems very high-toned and frankly kind of effeminate.    What an odd choice.  Maybe it's just that one scene though.  I'll have to wait til I hear him in game.

Mike doesn't sound like Robby Benson, there's no two ways about that. But he's a very good actor and he just nailed the emotion and tone for Alex perfectly, IMO. (Well, in most of the director's opinions, actually!)
