Max Payne, Alan Wake voice actors join 1979 Revolution cast
Samit Sarkar (he/him) is Polygon’s deputy managing editor. He has more than 17 years of experience covering video games, movies, television, and technology.
James McCaffrey has voiced the title character in all three of Rockstar Games' Max Payne titles: Max Payne (2001), Max Payne 2: The Fall of Max Payne (2003) and Max Payne 3 (2012). Matthew Porretta lent his voice to Alan Wake in Remedy Entertainment's original 2010 thriller, Alan Wake, as well as its downloadable follow-up from 2012, Alan Wake's American Nightmare.
Both McCaffrey and Porretta have signed on to appear in 1979 Revolution, they announced in a video released today by developer Ink Stories. With less than a week to go, the game’s Kickstarter campaign has pulled in more than $108,000, which is approximately 27 percent of Ink Stories’ $395,000 goal.
