Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 is getting\u2014rightfully, in my opinion\u2014lauded for its heartfelt performances and deeply emotional story, which paints a deep and effective canvas of grief for its players. As part of those celebrations, the actors behind its characters are also getting their kudos, too. A smidge too much kudos for Charlie Cox, apparently.<\/p>\n

Cox voiced Gustave, the game’s protagonist, though you might also recognise him as Daredevil\/Matt Murdock from the Daredevil TV show\u2014and Marvel’s endless cameos. All this to say, he’s a big talent.<\/p>\n

And yet, he’s been feeling the impostor syndrome in the wake of Clair Obscur: Expedition 33. As shared by bursinxmurdock<\/a> on X, while speaking at Washington State Summer Con, Cox confessed: “I don’t mean to minimize it any way \u2026 I’m not a gamer, I have no idea, I haven’t played it. My agent asked me if I wanted to go and do a voiceover. I was in the studio for four hours, maybe?<\/p>\n

“People keep saying how amazing it is, congratulations, and I feel like a total fraud. But I’m so thrilled for the company and so thrilled that it did really well.”<\/p>\n

Poor Cox is definitely being a bit hard on himself here. His vocal performance as Gustave is excellent, filled with deep emotion, naturalistic, and immediately compelling\u2014there are other reasons he only spent four hours in the booth that I shan’t talk about, but all Cox’s quick stint means is that he’s a consummate professional. There ain’t nothing wrong with being efficient.<\/p>\n
