Captain Price Actor Barry Sloane Says He’s the Most Qualified Person to Star in the Call of Duty Movie

Barry Sloane has said he wants to play Captain Price in the planned live-action Call of Duty film, arguing that his nearly decade-long experience with the character makes him particularly qualified. His comments matter as fans have called for the game’s actors to appear in film adaptations, though the studio’s casting choice remains unknown.

The film, directed by Peter Berg and written by Taylor Sheridan, is expected to draw on the Modern Warfare universe, but it is unclear whether it will adapt a game or tell a new story. If it is part of the games’ timeline, the story would need to be set before Modern Warfare 4, which leaves Price presumed dead; the film is due in 2028, with casting news expected nearer production.
