The rebooted version of "Resident Evil" will be released in November this year, and until now the film has not exposed anything other than the starring lineup and subtitle confirmed as "Welcome to Raccoon City", but today we finally ushered in the first batch of stills about the first part of this rebooted version, so that we can have a preliminary understanding of the content of the film, to see if you are satisfied with the appearance of the new version of the casting.
First of all, Leon and Claire, Lyon played by Awan Jogja, looks more tender and fits his positioning as a police rookie, while Claire, played by Kaya Skodario, looks a bit out of line, the actor himself is more suitable for the role, but this curly hair seems to be a little out of line with the actor himself.
Followed by Wesker, played by Tom Hopper, Nathan Brad Wickers as Dales (who can't see the styling very well), Jill played by Hannah Jon-Carmen, and Chris played by Robbie Amel, all four actors look like they don't have much of a problem at the moment.
In addition to the actors, you can also appreciate the background and tone, the background they are in should be in the Western-style pavilion, and the basement, but the tone of the two stills is the same, relatively dim, especially the atmosphere in the western-style is still quite feeling, the director has repeatedly emphasized that he wants to return to the style and tone of the game itself, so to say, relative to the old version of the live-action series action scenes occupy the main part, I believe that in this reboot, the horror component will be amplified.
Speaking of horror, there is also a still in this exposure, showing Lisa Trevor.
The character looks very scary and weird, but at the same time it has some very sad feelings. She is a character added in the 2002 "Resident Evil HD Remake", this character itself has a strong tragic color, she was originally the daughter of the builder of the Mansion, but was kidnapped by the umbrella people, and later she and her mother were used as experiments, mutated into monsters, the mask-like face on her head was actually she killed other characters after tearing off the skin and pasting it on her body, the final ending of this role is also lamentable, she finally saw her mother's skull after self-consciousness awakened, chose to jump off the cliff and commit suicide. The character's story is really well suited for introduction into the film, so that the monster characters in it can also have flesh and blood.
Ukrainian jiu-jitsu and dancer Marina Mazepa played the role of Lisa:
The director said in the latest interview that people want to see those classic characters, and iconic scene architecture, so that they can feel that the film itself is in the same world as the game, which is why the director will choose to go in this direction, he said that they have worked very closely with Capcom, they even got the blueprints of Spencer House and Raccoon City Police Department from Capcom, they used this as a basis to restore as much as possible to create a perfect scene, They even have the original art drawings of the murals on the walls of the Western-style museum, and They are very satisfied with the effects of these films that Capcom watched some time ago.
In-game Western-style house:
The rebooted version of Resident Evil will be adapted from the game's 1st and 2nd generations, and the story will be divided into two main scenes, namely the Western-style hall and the Raccoon City Police Station mentioned by the director above. According to the director, the film will be a group drama film, and Raccoon City will be the real protagonist of the film.
The reboot of Resident Evil will be the first film in the reboot series, and there are new six-part plans at the beginning, the first of which is currently scheduled to be released in North America on November 24 this year.
