Star Wars game from Visceral, EA adds writer Todd Stashwick

Hollywood writer and actor Todd Stashwick is Amy Hennig's co-scribe on the Star Wars game coming from EA and Visceral Games. Hennig tweeted today, "Thrilled to announce that my friend @ToddStashwick will be joining me as co-writer on the Star Wars project for @VisceralGames @EA!"

Stashwick has acted in Heroes, Justified, Supernatural, Curb Your Enthusiasm, and a host of television shows and movies. This appears to be his first foray into video games, though his biography reads, "He is an avid gamer and lover of comic books, sci-fi and horror."

Stashwick tweeted about the news, saying he was "beyond humbled and excited" to work on Star Wars with Hennig.

Visceral announced Hennig as creative director and writer of its Star Wars game earlier in April.
