Devora Wilde Only Realized She Was in Space Marine 2 After Fans Sent Voice Clips
The actor behind Lae'zel and Clea voiced a servo-skull and Cadian soldier in the game, but had to match its code name against old emails before recognizing her own performance.
Devora Wilde has played some of gaming’s most recognizable characters, but even she didn’t realize that her voice appeared in Warhammer 40,000: Space Marine 2 until players pointed it out after launch.
Wilde is known for voicing Lae’zel in Baldur’s Gate 3 and Clea in Clair Obscur: Expedition 33. Her work in Space Marine 2 was much less obvious, with her performance spread across a servo-skull and a Cadian soldier whose messages appear as audio logs rather than one clearly identified character.
During an interview with IGN, Wilde explained that fans began messaging her after the game came out. She initially dismissed the idea that she had contributed to the shooter, but clips of the relevant voice lines eventually made her reconsider.
“Huh, that sounds like me,” Wilde recalled thinking after hearing the clips. Players had also pointed out that the delivery sounded a lot like Lae’zel, a comparison Wilde agreed with.
From there, she searched through her old emails and other records, trying to connect the project’s code name with the finished game. That investigation finally confirmed what fans had been telling her: she was part of Space Marine 2’s cast.
Wilde said the work had been easy to lose track of because it consisted of scattered recording sessions. She had not asked many questions about the project at the time, and the game did not reveal its identity to her before release.
“When it came out I was like, ‘Ah, that’s me. I’m an audio log!'” Wilde said. It is an unusual way for an actor to discover a finished credit, especially after already becoming closely associated with two major RPG performances.
