Baldur’s Gate 3 has been a long time coming, finally arriving this month over two decades after the release of the last entry in the series. The Dungeons & Dragons-based RPG was developed and published by Larian Studios, which is known for creating the Divinity franchise. The title first entered early access in 2020, growing over time to include the level of expansive narratives, exploration, and character options seen in the final release that have made the game a hit with so many players.
The voice cast of Baldur’s Gate 3 is quite impressive, featuring actors like Spider-Man’s J.K. Simmons, Detroit: Become Human’s Neil Newbon, and Maggie Robertson, who rose to prominence after playing Lady Dimitrescu in Resident Evil Village. The role earned her the Best Performance Award at the 2021 Game Awards, and she has since gone on to several other projects like God of War: Ragnarök and Back 4 Blood. In Baldur’s Gate 3 Robertson plays Orin the Red, who is arguably the scariest member of the game’s villain triumvirate.
Screen Rant sat down with Maggie Robertson to discuss her role as Orin the Red, her personal history with gaming, and the importance of telling villains’ stories.
Screen Rant: I read in an interview that when you were approaching playingLady Dimitrescu as a character, you mentioned creating a sense of both an internal and an external rhythm for the character. I’m curious if you approached Orin in the same way, and if so what those two rhythms were?
Are there any scenes that stand out to you as being especially rewarding or difficult to get right? I know there’s a lot of stuff that maybe would be a spoiler in that regard, but speaking in more general terms.
