In the 90s it became very fashionable to make PC games in the form of interactive movies, ie: gameplay elements interspersed with live-action cutscenes and you were given (usually moral) choices to make in order to advance the story.
This of course, required actors and none more star-studded (ok, in a B-movie kinda way) than Wing Commander IV. Production values were ridiculously high being filmed on real sets versus blue screens at a cost of US$12 million.
If the CG looks shitty to you, remember this was 1995.
Check out the list below and other roles they were also famous for.
Watching the trailer brought a nostalgic tear to my eye.
Mark Hamill - Luke Skywalker in Star Wars
Tom Wilson - Biff Tannen in Back to the Future
Mark Dacascos - ("I'm really sorry, sir"), Crying Freeman, Jimmy Lee in Double Dragon
Malcolm McDowell - Alex in A Clockwork Orange
John Rhys-Davies - Gimli the dwarf in Lord of the Rings
