It's not often you see this much Hollywood star power in a video game. Star Citizen, the upcoming crowd-funded space sim from developer Chris Roberts, has just revealed the star-studded cast that will be featured in the game's story mode.

The long in-development title, which has raised $92 million from internet backers, debuted the opening cinematic for Squadron 42, the single player campaign which launches sometime in 2016. The footage was shown at CitizenCon, an annual celebration of the record breaking game.

The trailer features veteran actor Gary Oldman as Admiral Bishop; the military leader of mankind's space forces. The character is seen giving a rousing speech to members of a futuristic human senate following the aftermath of a tragedy called the Battle of Vega II. The clip ends with a rundown of the other cast members.

Joining Oldman will be X-Files star Gillian Anderson, motion capture wizard Andy Serkis, Game of Thrones' Liam Cunningham, and none other than Luke Skywalker himself Mark Hamill. Who exactly these actors will be playing remains a secret, but developer Roberts Space Industries did give a detailed rundown of who exactly Bishop is and his role in the overarching narrative.

Alexander the Great, Hannibal, Patton. To many in the UEE, Admiral Ernst Bishop has built a career evocative of these great military tacticians. A lifelong soldier, Bishop quickly distinguished himself as leader and strategist by seeing angles that others don't and taking risks that others won't. Strategy is a shifting puzzle to him. For better or worse, he is capable of disconnecting his empathy to the point where a battleship is simply an asset (with strengths and weaknesses) in the game, not a ship of five hundred souls. This is how he keeps winning.

The exact release date for Squadron 42 is still unknown.
