5 actors you didn't know were in Call of Duty

There are no small parts for these big stars.

1. Idris Elba

Idris Elba has become an incredibly successful actor over the last few years and has appeared in films such as Pacific Rim, Thor, and The Avengers (we try not to talk about The Dark Tower). However, many people may be surprised to learn that Elba has also appeared in our favorite best-selling gaming franchise: Call of Duty.

Idris Elba played the character Sergeant First Class Truck in Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3, which was a fairly big role in the campaign, and his death in the game made for one of the more dramatic scenes in the series' history. In the mission "Final Operation" Truck, Sandman and Grinch were all buried alive in a mine because of heavy damage caused by RPG fire.

Overall, Call of Duty has had huge stars participate in their games and although many of the actors featured weren’t world famous at the time, some have gone on to captivate the public eye. For those in the current game, alongside stars like David "Dr Who" Tennant and Ving "Mission: Impossible" Rhames, who knows what the future holds?
