Right after the release of the newest Overwatch hero Sombra, speculation has been going around saying that Doomfist would be the next hero that Blizzard would bring to its popular first-person, team-based videogame. After gamers started suggesting online that it would be interesting if Hollywood muscle-man actor Terry Crews would do the voice over for Doomfist, Crews jumped in on the discussion and expressed a lot of interest in playing the part of the rumored hero. Now, it seems like the American actor may be doing just that.

Yesterday, Terran Gregory, the project director of Bethesda's other game, World of Warcraft, posted on Twitter a picture of himself and Crews in one of Blizzard's offices. Though the picture may seem casual and unassuming, many Overwatch gamers have begun to speculate that Crews may have been called in to start work voice acting Doomfist, and if not, then another Overwatch hero. After all, why else would Crews be spotted in the Blizzard campus?

Still, if Crews wasn't actually going to Bethesda to iron out the work on Doomfist, gamers still hope that the Hollywood actor could voice another Overwatch hero. Others are also hoping that he could host the next Blizzcon.

Rumors of Crews voicing Doomfist began when gamers on Reddit began suggesting that the actor would make a great actor for the hero on Overwatch, and speculation swelled to even further heights after Crews went on his official Reddit account and responded with an enthusiastic "I wold LOVE TO PLAY DOOMFIST."

According to Gamerant, this does not come as a surprise since Crews has been found to be a fan of Overwatch as well. Not only did the Hollywood actor build himself a new PC, but Crews also made a post on his official Facebook page highlighting the Overwatch free weekend that happened back in November.
