Andy Serkis to star in Mike Bithell's Volume

LotR actor to play Guy Gisborne in Robin Hood retelling.
Mike Holmes 2 November 2014

Mike Bithell (Thomas Was Alone) has snapped up Andy Serkis (Gollum in Lord of the Rings) to play the role of Guy Gisborne in his next game, Volume.

If you don't know, Volume is a stealth title that also acts as a modern retelling of the Robin Hood myth. The announcement reveals Gisborne to be the game's main antagonist, a sinister CEO who pulls the strings in this near-future take on the classic story.

Serkis joins a cast that includes YouTuber Charlie McDonnell who'll play Locksley, and Thomas Was Alone narrator Danny Wallace is playing his AI companion.

Volume is due to land on PS4 and PS Vita, before following on PC/Mac at some point thereafter. You can see our interview with Mike Bithell regarding his next game by heading this way.
