Rumor: Mr. Freeze, Talia al Ghul to appear in Arkham Asylum 2

Two-Face not enough for you, Batman? How about some Mr. Freeze and your lovely honey Talia al Ghul?

Both may be coming to Arkham Asylum 2 if a report over on Gaming Target is on the money.

According to the site, Maurice LaMarche, also known as The Brain from the “Pinky and the Brain”, is set to voice Victor Fries/Mr. Freeze.

This is according to LaMarche himself, who revealed his part during a interview with GeekCast Radio Network.

“Videogames is hard work, I’ll say that,” said LaMarche. “I’ve only done a handful, and I’m very lucky right now, I’m about to go in and do Mr. Freeze for Arkham Asylum 2.

“He’s out for blood right now because, err… I can’t tell you the situation, but he’s actually somewhat a sympathetic character within the framework of the game.”

As if that was not enough Batman goodness for you, according to a couple Twitter posts by actress Stana Katic, she’s the voice of Talia Head/Talia al Ghul in the game.

“Just recorded a character voice on the next Batman video game”, she tweeted. “Never did that before. Helpful hint: plenty of water and pineapple slices” …..For those who were asking: I’m voicing Talia al Ghul, the daughter of Ra al Ghul (played by Liam Neeson in “Batman Begins”).”

Both tweets have been deleted.

Warner’s confirmed it’s to publish the  Batman: Arkham Asylum 2, not Square Enix Europe, which was announced during the VGAs.

No date yet.

Thanks, Joystiq.
