News: With David Goyer on hand to provide story support.

Treyarch has signed two of Hollywood's greatest actors to lend their voice talents to Call of Duty: Black Ops.

Gary Oldman (The Professional, The Fifth Element) will repsrise his role as Russian soldier Viktor Reznov, who first appeared in Call of Duty: World at War, making Black Ops a direct sequel to Treyarch's previous World War II shooter. He'll be joined by Ed Harris (Apollo 13, A History of Violence), who will portray CIA operative Jason Hudson.

Behind the scenes, Treyarch has employed the services of screenwriter extraordinaire David S. Goyer. Goyer, who worked with Christopher Nolan on the scripts for Batman Begins, The Dark Knight and Superman: The Man of Steel, will " provide script consultation and story development support."

УOldman, Harris and Goyer are considered some of Hollywood's finest talents and they perfectly complement Call of Duty: Black Ops' ambitious and immersive single player experience,Ф says Mark Lamia, Studio Head of Treyarch.УTheir contributions have helped us to push the boundaries of our story telling and character development far beyond anything we have ever attempted before in the franchise.Ф

Call of Duty: Black Ops will be available on November 9.
