Jennifer English, who gained fame for her portrayal of Shadowheart in Baldur's Gate 3 and then won a BAFTA award for best performer in a leading role for Clair Obscur: Expedition 33, has announced that she is withdrawing from the role of Gwendolyn in the upcoming Tides of Annihilation in order to "properly look after [her] mental and physical health."
Revealed in 2025, Tides of Annihilation struck me as an Arthurian Elden Ring set in modern-day London: Gwendolyn, the only survivor of the "Outworld invasion" that's shattered London, can summon the spirits of the Knights of the Round Table to help her do battle with the "demi-gods of Avalon." As videogames go, I'd say it sure looks very videogame-y.
