‘Now You’re Pushing It’ — Debra Wilson Drew the Line at the Wolverine Devs Scanning Her Tattoos Into the Game

Actor Debra Wilson has expressed frustration over her face appearing in various video games, stating she finds it hard to suspend her disbelief when her likeness is used. Wilson, known for her roles in Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order, Wolfenstein: The New Colossus, and God of War Ragnarok, says she'd rather play characters that don't look like her.

She criticized developers for scanning her tattoos for the upcoming Wolverine game, saying "now you're pushing it." Despite her wishes, she's grateful for the diverse roles in the video game industry. Wilson noted that it depends on the game; she didn't mind her likeness being used in Death Stranding 2 as almost every actor's likeness was included.

She also complimented Hideo Kojima's ability to envision the desired look for characters. Wilson recently starred in Ace Combat 8: Wings of theve, Callisto in Marvel's Wolverine, and provided background voices in Modern Warfare 4.
