As anticipation builds for Ubisoft's upcoming installment in the famed Far Cry series, a user known for accurate leaks about the franchise has hinted that Cillian Murphy, known for his roles in 'Oppenheimer' and 'Peaky Blinders,' might portray the antagonist in Far Cry 7.
One of the trademarks of the Far Cry series is undoubtedly its eccentric main antagonists. Since the release of the third installment in 2012, each villain has oscillated between sanity and madness, leaving a lasting impact on players' minds. While characters like Vaas, Doctor Krieger, and Pagan Min are etched in our memories, few have left the same lasting impression.
The rumor suggesting Cillian Murphy's involvement in Far Cry 7 as the antagonist has sent shockwaves through the gaming community. The user, known for accurate leaks in the past, hinted at Murphy's potential role, igniting hope among fans.
However, subsequent statements have left fans perplexed. While detailing a thrilling race against time to save our fictional family and providing insights into Far Cry 7, the user added a puzzling disclaimer: 'Mind you, I NEVER said that Cillian Murphy will be in the game.' This statement has left many questioning the validity of the initial speculation.
In the previous installment of the series, Giancarlo Esposito portrayed the primary antagonist, adding to the anticipation surrounding the casting choice for Far Cry 7.
