Gemma Atkinson will be playing the role of Eva McKenna, an Allied communications officer in Red Alert 3.
EA has officially signed Gemma Atkinson of UK psuedo-soap Hollyoaks to act in the full-motion video sequences of
Command and Conquer: Red Alert 3.
Somehow, we don't think this will be a
Kane-destroying performance.
Gemma will be playing the role of Lt Eva McKenna, a communications officer for the Allies that EA describes as having a "
sexy twinkle in her eye and a British stiff upper lip."
"
I'm a gamer and the chance to act in one of the best loved videogames was an opportunity I was really keen to explore - especially as Eva is such a strong female character," said Gemma, demonstrating an amazing ability to speak without really saying anything.
"
The worlds of gaming and film are getting ever closer and as an actress I wanted to explore this exciting new area of drama, broaden my acting skills and continue the active, outgoing side of my personality that I showed in I'm A Celebrity... Get Me Out Of Here!"
Are we being too mean to the undeniably pretty blonde? We do have to admit that Hollyoaks is one of our guiltier pleasures on a Sunday morning, and as far as
Command and Conquer FMV sequences go we doubt the game will require any real believability.
The game is set for an Autumn release on the Xbox 360 and PC, but while you wait you can read our
hands-on preview with Red Alert 3 or check out the press picture below and let us know what you think in
the forums.

Then we can have a R rated spin-off called Red Alert: In the City.
That said, I was dubious about most of the actors in C&C3 and KW, but they turned out okay, so maybe I'll be pleasantly surprised again.

My only issue with her promo shots is that 'kin awful gun.
Sorry, but that REALLY ruins it for me. EA could damn well afford at least a plastic replica, rather than what looks like some cheap **** skinning of a 'green gun'.
RA2 Eva was played by Athena Massey along side Kari Wuhrer who where both brunette.

Has anyone ever told you that you know a little too much about C&C?
Having said that, a part in Red Alert is hardly anything particularly big..
Depends on the type of 'hands on'. :o
I don't think she's that attractive.
HAHAHA!! Nice.
Misogyny aside though, C&C and terrible acting go hand in hand, so this can be no bad thing!!
I still would though. As for her acting though, meh.

I keep thinking she's dressed up as a flight-attendant, rather than a military officer.
I agree, she looks more like a flight attendant.
googled some images of her and i can say she has some big boobs..... but i feel they are faked somehow...
I don't think anyone ever got a major Hollywood role because they appeared in a cheesy FMV sequence.
It's probably the breast implants that give you that feeling ^_<
boobies
I think I would require an in-person examination to be sure .
its Red Alert cut scenes, ITS SUPPOSED TO HAVE TERRIBLE ACTING
good acting would DETRACT from it, shes ****ing perfect for the job :p
