I am a fan of Wentworth Miller, especially ..er well obviously in Prison Break but as Chris its gonna be iffy.
But from what I've seen they're going for a Pre-5 looking Chris anyway.
Added Note -



at least they're gonna TRY and make her look like Claire

Obviously the movies didn't follow the games very accurately, but i thought that they were at least good action movies, and besides that, even if Anderson had followed the games by the letter, die-hard fans STILL would have complained about something or another, and they'd have said he ruined the games, the actors weren't good enough, or this or that.

No one can please everyone, but I at least liked the movies.

I'm gonna go out on a limb and defend the movies
1) They did introduce a lot of people to the series
2) On their own, they are decent action flicks
3) The First movie DID have quite a bit overt "Resident Evil-ness",ambiance and atmosphere.

Saying Anderson didn't try is incorrect unless you just don't like the first movie, remember..
He only directed the first film, which for all intensive purposes of course was originally going to be a prequel to the game and also, DID and I will repeat DID rejuvenate the Zombie film.

To me? And especially now?
The movies are a love/hate thing, while I do and always will enjoy and like the first film for what it was the 2nd tried far to hard incorporating aspects of the game, thus we got a shitty movie, and 3 strayed far far from the games themselves outside of references (Herbs in the movie FTW, creatures (Tyrant, Hyper Zombies, Crows, etc), characters obviously even though they were seriously out of character (i.e. ....Claire). Thus the "Trying to Stay Close to the games" was traded in with better direction and action sequences, etc.

With Anderson directing the Afterlife, I'm wondering how they'll continue to merge their "Alternate RE Reality" with the one we know. With Wesker being recast and more appropriately, I can only hope it'll be a better Resident Evil movie overall.
Though, I think we'll all be rooting for Wesker to kill Alice.

[Sidenote: The movies DID make Carlos more badass]
[2nd Sidenote: DON'T assume I love the movies, I don't. But I take them for what they are.]

I pretty much agree with everything Soul said. ^_^;

Resident Evil Afterlife picks up where the third film left off. Since the events of Resident Evil Extinction, Alice has been roaming the world searching for any remaining survivors. As she enters the ruined Los Angeles, she stumbles onto a prison surrounded by zombies. She then teams up with a group of survivors who had been hiding in Los Angeles since the T-Virus outbreak and helps them break out other survivors held within the jail which include Claire's brother Chris Redfield.

In August 2009 it was announced that the film would be released on August 27, 2010, but in December it was set back to January 14, 2011. In January 2010, it was announced that the release date was moved again, this time to September 10, 2010.

The first teaser trailer is expected to be released with A Nightmare on Elm Street, on April 30th.

Paul directed the first movie and will be directing this next one. He wrote or helped write the other two as well. The point I'm trying to make is that he just plain screwed over the series with the first movie. I know a lot of people defend it by saying that it was a prequel to the first game, but come on. Then use someone that was obviously known to have had an impact on the series prior to the first game, like William Birkin. So easy. But no, he went with Alice. Who the hell is Alice? And why is every single chick in the movie so super badass? They are more manly than the freaking men! I also can't get over the nip-slip. Tasteless.

I don't know. If Anderson had made the first movie better, I would be able to forgive that Capcom made it obsolete with RE0. The fact is, even if RE0 was never made, the first movie was shit.

They probably shouldn't have used Nemesis, considering his direct involvement with RE3 and S.T.A.R.S., and the third one was pretty suckish.

But other than that, I never had a complaint.

When I first saw Apocalypse, I never even knew about Nemesis in RE3 and he was pretty kickass to me.
