If it's good enough for James Woods, Michael Keaton and Ray Liotta then it's good enough for Conor McGregor.
A break into show business has long been predicted for
The Notorious but, in keeping with his MMA career, the UFC featherweight is taking the route less-travelled.
McGregor is to feature in the next instalment of the massively popular Call of Duty computer game franchise,
Call of Duty: Infinite Warfare.

The game can be pre-ordered from October and looks like more fun than a post-victory cheese party in a Las Vegas MacMansion.

McGregor's exact role in the game was not specified in the story released on his own
MacLife website, but he will be joining a long-list of Hollywood luminaries who have dipped a toe in the lucrative computer game voice-over market.
Batman star Keaton featured in an earlier iteration of the Call of Duty series, with the likes of Woods, Liotta, Michael Madsen and Burt Reynolds all voicing characters in the
Grand Theft Auto games.
Of course McGregor, obsessed with movement and control, may have to come to terms with his on-screen likeness being either accidentally killed, maimed or laughed at by numpties.

The pixellated acting career is sure to be lucrative for McGregor, whose wealth was estimated at over €20million by Forbes magazine earlier this year, and this was *before* his very lucrative rematch victory against Nate Diaz at UFC 202 last month.
