The two actors Xbox named
Brian Bloom returns as B.J. Blazkowicz and Debra Wilson as Grace Walker. Xbox named both in its November 12 recap, and both appear in the motion capture photo MachineGames posted.
The motion capture photo shows two people in capture suits sitting across from each other at a table. Xbox's recap of the day named them, and the naming is the only casting information in existence.
Brian Bloom as B.J. Blazkowicz
Bloom has played William "B.J." Blazkowicz across the MachineGames games, starting with The New Order in 2014 and continuing through The Old Blood and The New Colossus. The character he voices is the same one id Software put on screen in 1992: an Allied operative who spends the series killing Nazis in an alternate history where they won the war in Europe.
He is also the actor in the chair on the left of the capture photo, which is the detail that makes the announcement feel like a production update rather than a logo.
| Actor | Character | First played in | Confirmed for Wolfenstein 3 |
|---|---|---|---|
| Brian Bloom | B.J. Blazkowicz | The New Order (2014) | Yes, named by Xbox Wire |
| Debra Wilson | Grace Walker | The New Colossus (2017) | Yes, named by Xbox Wire |
| Anyone else | Not named | - | Not announced |
Debra Wilson as Grace Walker
Wilson played Grace Walker in The New Colossus, where the character leads a resistance cell. That is the whole of her history in the series: one game, one role, and a photo from a capture stage nine years later.
Her return is the more interesting half of the announcement, because Grace was a supporting character in a 2017 game and a nine-year gap is a long time for a supporting role to sit. Xbox chose to name her specifically, which means she is not a cameo being kept quiet.
What the photo does and does not prove
It proves two performers were on a capture stage together on or before November 12, 2026. It proves they were seated at a table facing each other, which matches the interrogation scene on the script page.
It does not prove the scene they were shooting is that scene. It does not prove they are the only cast. It says nothing about who plays Otto, despite Otto having the loudest line on the page.

Where to watch for more
Casting updates will come from the same two accounts that broke this one: MachineGames and Xbox. The news log tracks every official statement with its date, and the characters page collects what each named figure has actually done on screen in this series.
