Nathan Fillion – Cayde-6
Much of Destiny 2’s marketing has been centered around the Hunter, Cayde-6. He’s witty, charismatic, and an important part of the game’s plot.

He has also played Buck in the Halo series and God in Saints Row: Gat Out of Hell.
Gina Torres – Ikora Rey
The Warlock Vanguard is described as determined, fearless, and merciless but she is affected greatly by the events of Destiny 2’s early scenes. She is played by Gina Torres, who is best known for playing Jessica Pearson in the excellent TV show, Suits. She has worked on video games before, including lending her voice to DC Universe Online, playing Wonder Woman.

Nolan North – The Ghost
Originally voiced excellently by Peter Dinklage, The Ghost is now played by voice acting legend Nolan North.
