Lord Of The Rings’ Pippin Actor Just Showed Up In A Video Game In An Unexpected Way

As part of Gamescom this week, it was announced that The Lord of the Rings actor Billy Boyd will show up in a new game, or at least his voice will.

Boyd, who played the "Fool of a Took" Peregrin Took AKA Pippin in Peter Jackson's The Lord of the Rings trilogy, is playing Robert C. MacBrushy in There Are No Ghosts at the Grand. If you're just catching up, this is a musical mystery game where players inherit a crumbling English hotel. By day, they work to restore it. By night, they deal with the ghosts haunting it.

"Each mysterious character you meet or choose to help has their own story and song waiting to be uncovered. From spooky ska to wartime jazz to skater punk, each song is uniquely theirs… and sometimes surprisingly so," reads a line from the game's description.

Boyd is an accomplished musician himself and fronts the band Beecake. Other performers featured in There Are No Ghosts at the Grand include Alex Brightman, who is known for his Tony-nominated performances in the stage plays for Beetlejuice and School of Rock.

There Are No Ghosts at the Grand releases later this year, and a free demo is available now on Steam.
