Kristen Bell reprises role for Assassin’s Creed II
Hollywood starlet Kristen Bell will reprise her role as Lucy Stillman in Ubisoft’s Assassin’s Creed II. Bell’s character will once again play a major role in the game’s intricate storyline. In 2007, Bell won “Hottest Newcomer” at the Spike Video Game Awards for her role in the first Assassin’s Creed. Did they give her that because she’s hot or because her acting is hot? I’m not sure, but either way, good for her. Bell is best known for her leading role on the show Veronica Mars - a modern take on the teen detective novel popularized by the one and only Nancy Drew and serialized for TV by that wonderful network we know as the WB.
“Being a part of the first Assassin’s Creed video game was an amazing experience. Video games is such a creative entertainment medium, and to be able to see and play myself as a video game character was surreal,” said Kristen Bell. “As an actress, it’s both challenging and rewarding to play a complex character with this great mysterious background. I’m very happy to be Lucy once more, and I look forward to fans discovering more about her - they will be pleasantly surprised.”
Assassin’s Creed II will be available in North America November 17, 2009 for the Xbox 360, PS3, and PC. For more information, check out www.assassinscreed.com.
