Call of Duty Duo Sign with Hollywood Talent Agency

14
Less than two weeks after departing Call of Duty series developer Infinity Ward on allegations of insubordination, co-founders Vince Zampella and Jason West have signed on to be represented by Hollywood talent agency Creative Artists, reports The Los Angeles Times.

While it's not entirely unheard of for video game developers to sign with talent agencies, it's not exactly common either. Then again, we're also talking about the duo that helped create Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2, a game said to have had "the biggest launch in history across all forms of entertainment."

Exactly what Zampella and West are planning remains unknown and likely depends on the outcome of their court case against former employer Activision, which sees the two seeking royalty payments and rights over Modern Warfare-branded games.

        The additional filing in the lawsuit and the eventual verdict I think will un-earth a big piece of the overall picture.
