Bill Clinton Turned Down Fallout 3 Role

I have nothing against Malcolm McDowell. I think he’s a good actor and did a great job as President John Henry Eden. That said, I would have much preferred former President of the United States Bill Clinton in the role – after all, he was asked.
Lev Chapelsky is the general manager of Blindlight, a company that acquires Hollywood big shots to do voice work in video games. In a recent interview with Edge Online, he revealed that President Clinton was asked to do the voice of the President in Fallout 3.
Needless to say, that didn’t happen. I don’t even know how that would’ve been received in the gaming community. It’s pretty awesome, of course, but also totally bizarre.

That would have been a great addition to the game. Imagine that you had no idea and the first time you heard the president talking on the pip boy radio, you hear the former pimp of the nation himself! I wonder if now someone will make a pc mod that allows you to change the president's voice to a voice similar to Clinton? Interesting.
