Alan Wake 2: The Lake House Star Explains Why Remedy Is Special
The final expansion of Alan Wake 2, The Lake House, is out now, closing a chapter for Remedy that was 13 years in the making. In The Lake House, players assume the role of Agent Kiran Estevez as she investigates the titular Federal Bureau of Control satellite station following a disturbance. The high strangeness of Remedy's Control mixes with the horror of Alan Wake 2, giving the expansion the feeling of both an epilogue and a prologue, as the studio continues to build out its connected universe, the RCU.
I recently caught up with the DLC's star, Janina Gavankar, whom you may know from things like Star Wars Battlefront 2 and True Blood. Gavankar explained what she loves about working with Remedy, why she's hoping to do it again soon, and whether we can expect to see her in Control's sequel.
"I've been stalking Remedy and Sam [Lake] for eight years," Gavankar said. "Quantum Break was my first Remedy game, and I loved it so much. I found all three acts of [in-universe movie script] Time Knife, and I invited some of the cast over, and I made a soundboard so I could play effects, and I streamed a live reading of it. I think that's when Sam and other people at Remedy realized, 'Oh, she's like us.'"
