Who is Who in L.A. Noire
content auto translated from {from}

The release of L.A.Noire: The Complete Edition has taken place for all platforms, including PC, and many players have already completed or are in the process of playing the game, encountering various actors from the world of cinema and television along the way who may look familiar (fans of the series Mad Men will surely recognize many faces besides Aaron Staton's, who plays detective Cole Phelps).

So for those who wondered where they could have seen these actors, this article was written. Please note that this article is not a "copy-paste," and all information has been gathered from various foreign articles and Kinopoisk. I made an effort to mention not only the main characters but also those whose faces were particularly memorable.
