Star Trek actor Tim Russ plays Sylens in Lego Horizon Adventures , IGN can confirm. Russ, who famously plays Tuvok in Star Trek: Voyager , assumes the role of Sylens after Horizon developer Guerrilla Games recast the character following the death of Lance Reddick in March 2023. Sylens is the deuteragonist of Horizon Zero Dawn and a returning character in its sequel.
He allies with protagonist Aloy to discover the truth behind the machines and the fate of the Old Ones. IGN's Lego Horizons Adventures review returned a 7/10. We said: "Lego Horizon Adventures reimagines Horizon Zero Dawn with a playful Lego twist, simplifying the story while keeping the heart of its key moments and characters.
" Russ played Jetakka in 2022’s Horizon Forbidden West , so has a history with Guerrilla’s action adventure series. Last month, Guerrilla Games' senior world artist Lucas Bolt told IGN : "Lance Reddick tragically passed away in 2023, and he is deeply missed within Guerrilla and our community. "He wonderfully portrayed the essential character of Sylens in Horizon Zero Dawn and Forbidden West.
The character of Sylens does appear in LEGO Horizon Adventures, and we will introduce the new actor at a later date. Hearing the voices of other original actors including Ashly Burch as Aloy, JB Blanc as Rost, John Macmillan as Varl and John Hopkins as Erend has really brought back the tone of comradery found in the original game." Recasting perhaps suggests Russ will play Sylens in future Horizon ga.
