Winter Soldier recently was added to Marvel Heroes 2015. We had the opportunity to talk to WS's voice actor David Hayter, best known as Solid Snake, to find out more about Winter Soldier. Check out what he had to say in our exclusive mini-interview.
MMORPG.com: What is it about the Winter Soldier character that attracted you to the role?
David: It was the name on the audition call sheet, and it was a Marvel game. Seemed worthwhile, no?
MMORPG.com: How did you prepare for voicing Winter Soldier? Was there anything you found out in your preparation that surprised you about the character?
David: First thing was to cut off my arm. You just can't do the Winter Soldier with two arms. After that, my preparation gets a little hazy.
MMORPG.com: Did you bring anything from your years of experience voicing Solid Snake for the Metal Gear Solid series into your performance as Winter Soldier?
David: Winter Soldier was fairly straightforward, but exceptional fun. He's pretty deep. He was once the young best friend/sidekick of Captain America, until he was tortured, and turned into a mindless assassin. So there's a lot of pain and resentment that goes into his history. I tend to think that he stays pretty isolated from the other heroes, with the possible exception of Captain America, who saved him from being just a soulless killing machine.
MMORPG.com: What was your favorite line to perform?
David: "I never thought an analyst of military technology would be so... cute." --Solid Snake, Metal Gear Solid
