Poe to Star in Apocalypse?

Fingers are pointing to rocker Poe as possible "co-star" in Activision's upcoming release.

5 Comments

Alterno-rock star Poe will be making a "virtual" appearance in Activision's upcoming actioner, Apocalypse. While pen has not yet been put to paper, the singer recently spoke of her game ambitions on MTV. If a deal is reached, Poe's role in the game would be of Mary Magdalene, a rock diva possessed by Plague, one of the biblical Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse. The plan would mark the second time that a celebrity would be motion-captured and "cyber-scanned" into the game - with action movie stud Bruce Willis taking the role of the horseman.

Activision insiders report that the remaining three horsemen - War, Death, and The Beast - will be played by unknown actors. Sorry folks, old-time video game stars Shaq, Corey Haim, and Dirk Benedict will not be tapped for the project.
