Giancarlo Esposito has recently worked on a big video game he can't reveal yet, according to Collider

Esposito, best known for his baddie roles in Breaking Bad and The Mandalorian, has reportedly done mo-cap work for a "huge" video game he can't discuss just yet. ""This video game I did; which is going to be huge. Can't really mention," Esposito said. 

The Mandalorian production used Unreal Engine to render real-time sets on massive LED screens, eliminating the need to composite together effects and green-screen footage, and allowing the team to make quick adjustments to virtual worlds. 

Who could Esposito be playing and in what game? Could he be the baddie in Black Ops: Cold War, as our very own Alex Avard suggested, or donning a helmet and joining the fray in Halo Infinite? Could his Mandalorian character even be crossing over into an unannounced Star Wars game? Has Esposito worked on a currently unannounced game for next-gen consoles? Nobody knows, but we do know this isn't his first video game gig - he did VO and mo-cap work for PayDay 2 DLC. Fingers crossed this role is slightly more substantial. 

Will Esposito's game join the best upcoming games of 2020 and beyond? Perhaps.
