It seems that we haven't heard the last of Commander Zavala in Destiny 2: In a tribute to voice actor Lance Reddick, who died unexpectedly last week at age 60, Bungie confirmed there are still "performances yet to come in the game."
Reddick had an impressive career in movies and television, and he also appeared in a number of high-profile games, including Quantum Break, Horizon Zero Dawn, and Horizon Forbidden West. But it's fair to say that he's best known in games as Commander Zavala, the big cheese in Destiny—not just for his stoic, commanding presence in the Tower, but also because he was an enthusiastic player who clearly enjoyed interacting with fans.
