Paul Mercier (Leon Kennedy's voice actor) has some info on his IMDb page. It says he is voicing Leon Kennedy in Brawl.

Check for yourself, I can't paste a link using my Wii, sorry. If someone can post it, I'd like that.

No clue if this means anything, but it's up there. Anyone remember a Krystal rumor like this.

Wrong forum anyhow. Try character discussion, Sariku.

Pilot Evan beat me but
Here's what it says:

Paul Mercier.

Dairanto Sumasshu Burazazu ekkusu (2008) (VG) (post-production) .... Leon Scott Kennedy
... aka Great Fray Smash Brothers X (Japan: English title: informal title)
... aka Super Smash Bros. Brawl (International: English title)


Pretty good news if you ask me.
AT would be awesome.
Playable would be pretty wtf but very unlikely.

Yep, this game is going to be the best thing to ever happen in gaming history, LEON KENNEDY FOR PC!!! I'll even accept him for AT! He's definitely one or the other because the actor Paul Mercier is voicing him for something in Brawl. :grin:

I thought this was going to be a troll, but then I saw it was Sariku.Uchiha. I would love to see Leon as a character. He could be a playable character or an AT. Although why would Nintendo hire him just to use him for an AT?

edit: my **** internet spazzed out

To incorporate damage in your idea, the zombies flying around would cause damage to other people. :laugh:
I could have thought of Leon just attacking people himself but the zombies was interesting lol.

*facepalm* this has been around for Weeks.
I thought people already knew or I would have posted it.
Leon will probably be an AT if anything, and it Could be hacks, VIP users can edit the pages.

FAIL until Sakurai confirms.

This is very exciting, but highly questionable news. IMDb isn't particularly reliable.

IMDB had 50 Cent as Epona's voice actor in TP for a while, it's prone to sabotage just like wikipedia, so a character being "revealed" through it is in no way more believable than a prophet.

Oh...my...goodness.

It's IMDB.

Almost anyone can edit it. I usually don't trust IMDB when it comes to information on an unreleased movie, TV show or game. At one point, someone edited it so it said that Captain Janeway from Star Trek would be in Power Rangers in 2004.

Well... Leon is pretty darn popular with RE lovers...

Im not against him, he could turn out to be rather interesting.

Leon in before Mega Man? Doubtful. Leon in Brawl, period? Awesome.

However, to my understanding that IMDb can be edited by the public, like Wikipedia, so it could be a hoax. A little part of me is hoping for this to be true, because I played Resident Evil 4 and it is awesome, though I can't really see how he can't be a Snake clone without giving him a knife for tilts and a shotgun :laugh:

Snake took Spy/Gadget user. Leon could be more straight forward.

I made a moveset for him a while back. http://blogs.ign.com/InvincibleAgent/2007/11/03/70684/

And it's conceivable that they wouldn't put Megaman in first for Capcom... Maybe they don't want a Samus clone. Or maybe they don't want another Samus clone ;)

I've seen this topic a few days ago. Everybody dismissed it by saying that the IMDB wasn't creditable..

IMDB can be edited. It's not as bad as Wikipedia, but the point remains that it's not always a credible source of info.
