No, Robert Pattinson isn’t in Clair Obscur Expedition 33, but another superhero is
At first glance, Gustave, the playable engineer, looks like Robert Pattinson—brooding stare, chiseled jaw, and undeniable skin-of-a-killer energy. With Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 out, the resemblance is uncanny. But plot twist: Pattinson isn't in it. Charlie Cox, another superhero alum, takes the lead, and he's not the only iconic actor involved. As someone who's done a few double-takes at Gustave's appearance, I totally understand why many players and viewers thought he was played by Pattinson. The mustache is the dead giveaway. It's practically a clone of his character, Thomas Howard, from The Lighthouse. When placing them side by side, I couldn't help but wonder if Pattinson was the inspiration. What's even more curious is that Charlie Cox was right there, yet somehow, his face didn't make the cut. https://www.reddit.com/r/expedition33/comments/1f3i759/gustav_looks_like_robert_pattinson_in_the/ Even though we weren't graced with Charlie Cox's appearance, his voice acting more than makes up for it. I've been a fan since Stardust and eventually followed him into his most recent project, Daredevil: Born Again.

The cast is filled with familiar voices, especially for those who spend a lot of time with RPGs.

You'll quickly recognize Jennifer English, known for her role as Shadowheart. And it doesn't end there. Devora Wilde, the voice of Lae'zel, and Tracy Wiles, who played Jaheira, also joined the cast. Don't even get me started on Andy Serkis's role as Renoid in Expedition 33. He's basically the cornerstone of my childhood. I could gush about the voice cast for ages, but it's probably best you discover the rest for yourself. Hint, hint, there's someone special in there for Final Fantasy fans. While Robert Pattinson isn't part of the mix, his likeness relatively makes an appearance in Expedition 33. Maybe he'll land an RPG role one day. He's already shared his love for Final Fantasy VII, so a full-on video game debut might not be too far off.
