Watch as Dundee enlist Hollywood actor to voice latest new stadium teaser

Dundee have enlisted the help of Hollywood actor Brian Cox for a new teaser surrounding their Camperdown stadium project. 

The club aren't set to move to the new ground for a few years yet before departing their current home, Dens Park. 

A Dundee native himself, Cox starred in recent popular TV series 'Succession'. He has also won 21 Emmys in a vastly successful acting career spanning decades.

Now 79 years of age, he was tasked with voicing over a YouTube video teasing Dundee's new stadium: "Jute, jam, journalism - Gilzean, Shankly, Cox... no, not that one," he said. 

The full clip can be viewed below:

John Nelms, Director of Dark Blue Property Holdings and Managing Director of Dundee FC, said [dundeefc.co.uk]: "We are grateful to Brian for agreeing to provide the voiceover for this captivating piece of film.

"We’ve said from the start of the Camperdown project that we will honour the memory of the Dens and pay homage to Archibald Leitch’s architectural brilliance in some of its design elements.

"We couldn’t have asked for a more illustrious local hero to sprinkle some Hollywood magic on the film and we have a few other surprises to excite fans within the coming weeks, hopefully culminating in a successful application for Planning Permission in Principle."

The club are currently second-bottom of the Scottish Premiership as they fight for survival in the division. 

While a trip to face in-form Hibernian this weekend may be daunting, Tony Docherty's men will have a host of post-split fixtures across which they will have the opportunity to maintain their top-flight status. 

They remain just one point off Ross County and Kilmarnock, who sit tenth and ninth in the table, respectively.
