Shirine Boutella portrays Sevati Dumas in Call of Duty: Black Ops 6
Xbox and Activision seem very confident in the next installment of the Call of Duty franchise. After all, the duo has already released the launch trailer two good weeks ahead of the official release. The publisher is not resting on its laurels and continues to promote this Call of Duty: Black Ops 6. This time, they reveal the actress who voiced Sevati Dumas.
Let's learn more about Sevati…
Activision knows that to attract more players, localizing a game is a significant advantage. In the past, some famous personalities have lent their voices to characters in the Call of Duty franchise. We think of Ludivine Sagnier in CoD WWII or François Civil in CoD MW2. This time, it's Shirine Boutella who takes the mic to bring Sevati Dumas to life. The actress starred in Papicha, winner of the César for Best First Film in 2019, and she portrayed Gwen Stacy in Spider-Man: Across The Spider-Verse. She also stars alongside Omar Sy in the series Lupin. This year, she adds another string to her bow by participating in a voice-over in the video game universe.
She lends her voice to Sevati Dumas, a character who has been acquainted with crime from a young age. As a child, she was trained to kill, spending more than ten years in the service of one of Avalon's crime families… Before being betrayed. This will generate a desire for revenge that will push her to join Frank Woods. Despite her coldness and determination, Sevati Dumas is a more complex character than one might think. Here's how this spy is described by the actress: “Behind her sarcasm and apparent lack of empathy, Sev reveals herself to be touching. Voicing a character in Call of Duty is a real privilege. I was able to make the character my own and shape a strong and independent character, and I hope players will love her as much as I do.”
The Replacement continues to operate
It's not just everyday people who will play Call of Duty: Black Ops 6. Even stars will dive into the adventure. Of course, they need time. JuL, one of the most famous rappers from Marseille, is among those who need to play the game. Rest assured, the Replacement is here. Played by Peter Stormare, he takes over and goes to a recording studio in Marseille. Now it's his turn to deliver his best flow.
