Mass Effect Interview

Gamespot interviewed actor Seth Green about his role as "Joker" in the upcoming Mass Effect. Not a very interesting read, but this question is very apropos.
GS: We're seeing a lot of Hollywood talent getting roped in to do game stuff. Do you think that's a good thing?

SG:
I don't know that there's really a downside to it, in a day and age when the Hollywood studio system is desperately searching for new and original content. They're turning everywhere. You know, comics have become really popular. Video games have become really popular. What's nice is that people are accepting all these other mediums which are really rich in story and character, can be a jumping off point for other types of media. I like that instead of making another disposable romantic comedy, people are making a Resident Evil adventure movie. I'm not opposed to that. So, the crossover is just kind of natural. We're in a place where there isn't the same kind of distinction between television and film actors. So, it only stands to reason that people are being approached to do all types of things.
