Hitman: Absolution Features A Hollywood Cast

Through press release means, Square Enix has announced that, much like Sleeping Dogs before it, IO Interactive's Hitman: Absolution features a recognizable celebrity cast. In fact, found within the list of actors who lent themselves to the game through motion capture and recording devices, sits Powers Boothe, along with Keith Carradine, Vivica A. Fox and Shannyn Sossamon. They may not be some of Hollywood's elite these days, but they're quality actors nonetheless, and their inclusion should lend a lot of authenticity to the assassination-focused title.
