Who are the voice actors in Call of Duty: Vanguard?

A campaign so big it includes stars from The Birth of a Nation, The Lord of the Rings, and Daredevil.

As Call of Duty campaigns in the past have featured big names in the likes of Kit Harington, Kevin Spacey, and Troy Baker, Call of Duty: Vanguard is certainly no different. All of the story’s cast, both starring and supporting, have splashed into acting with plenty of memorable characters beforehand. Here are all of the notable voices you’ll be hearing from Vanguard’s World War II tale.

Vanguard will be Martin Copping’s second role in the Call of Duty series, as he starred as Sipes in 2016’s Call of Duty: Infinite Warfare. However, most FPS fans may know Copping better as Mozzie in the long-running Rainbow Six: Siege. Although his previous on-screen work includes roles such as Benny in NCIS, the actor currently has a film in post-production, titled The Dunes, which he wrote, directed, and starred in. 

Dominic Monaghan (as Jannick Richter)

Playing one of the leading antagonists in Vanguard, Dominic Monaghan is someone all too familiar to The Lord of the Rings fans, with him playing the part of Merry in each of the series’ three films. In 2019, the actor even landed the role of Beaumont in Star Wars: Episode IX The Rise of Skywalker. Monaghan isn’t a stranger to the gaming community either, with his performance as William Joyce in the 2016 action title Quantum Break.

On the MTV hit drama, Brand played Dr. Gabriel Valack for three seasons, but then moved onto smaller roles in Hawaii Five-0, General Hospital, and Alex Rider.
