PC gaming icon Joe Kucan, who plays evil bald-headed bad-guy Kane in the Command & Conquer series, has told VideoGamer.com that he would be happy to reprise the role in the as yet unannounced Command & Conquer 4.

Kucan, who plays Kane in Kane’s Wrath, the expansion to Command & Conquer 3, also said he’d be up for a C&C movie, were it ever to happen.

“I’ll come back as long as they’ll have me”, he said. “It’s tough because of my yo-yo diet. I weigh about 350 lbs right now, and for the next game, the Command & Conquer 4 game, should that ever come to fruition, I’m going to have to drop a couple of hundred. As far as my health goes it’s kind of tough, but as long as they’ll have me back I’ll keep coming back.”

Despite the fact that Kucan has played Kane in the C&C games since 1995, he’s not concerned that he might be typecast as an evil villain.

“No, it doesn’t bother me at all. It’s actually quite flattering to think that there’s a role for me in the world out there. Look at me. Am I going to play the head of the school choir? Am I going to be the first guy you think of when casting for that pre-school teacher? No, I don’t think so. I’m a scary bald guy and I’ll get the scary bald guy roles.”

And Kucan told us that he’d “love” to play Kane in a C&C movie, were it ever to happen.
