Angela Bassett is taking on the mantle of Six, the codename for the leader of the elite counter-terrorism group depicted in Tom Clancy's video game series Rainbow Six. Bassett was unveiled Monday during a Ubisoft news conference at E3 as the latest "Six" in the upcoming "Rainbow Six: Siege" installment of the publisher's long-running shooter series. The character has always been portrayed as male in past "Rainbow Six" games, as well as in Clancy's original novel. Basset said she thought the role would be a very strong look, as a woman and as a black woman.??
