Tuesday, 18.10.2011 |
 After the two  Sports Illustrated Swimsuit Models EA announced two new characters to star in Need for Speed The Run: Christina Hendricks (Mad Man) and Sean Faris (known from Vampire Diaries) are starring the main characters Sam Harper and Jack Rourke!
Christina Hendricks, the Emmy and Golden Globe nominated actress who plays the gorgeous, bold and savvy Joan Harris (née Holloway) in the hit AMC drama Mad Men, makes her videogame debut in Need for Speed The Run as Sam Harper: a woman with ambition, street smarts and a penchant for lightning fast cars. She's turned her lifelong passion into a lucrative livelihood, managing the best drivers in the cutthroat world of outlaw street racing. In this illicit, male-dominated racket, she's betting on Jack, the story's protagonist, by fronting his $250K race buy-in in hopes of winning the $25 million prize. It's Sam that enables Jack to enter the race as she remains his eyes and ears on the course.
"It's very exciting to be part of Need for Speed The Run. I've never been a video game character before so this is definitely a first for me. It's been fantastic fun to do something so different and to show a different side of myself as well," said Christina Hendricks.
Sean Faris (The Vampire Diaries, Never Back Down), one of Hollywood's up-and-coming leading men, gets in the driver's seat as Jack Rourke in Need for Speed The Run. One of the best drivers around, Jack's cockiness and arrogance has led him into a debt he can't repay. The mob has put a price on his head, and it's a lofty one. He's looking for a way out and only Sam can help. His only chance of survival is to enter and win the race to New York.
"I've definitely done my share of intense action scenes in movies but it's totally different and thrilling to actually be a character and driver in Need for Speed The Run. I got a kick out of seeing myself in the game, it's totally me! I'm a huge fan of the Need for Speed series so I jumped at the opportunity to be a part of the game," said Sean Faris.
