Also returning is the character of Jill Valentine, played once again by British actress Sienna Guillory. A former police officer who aligned with Alice against the Umbrella Corporation in Resident Evil: Apocalypse, Guillory was last seen ordering the killing of all remaining survivors—including Alice—at the end of Resident Evil: Afterlife.
“Jill is being controlled by Umbrella now,” explains Guillory. “She’s a good girl trapped in a bad body. And she’s a real baddie in this film.”
Guillory was delighted to return to the world of Resident Evil, as well as to work with Jovovich and Anderson once again. “On these films, you’re part of a team and the support is incredible,” she says. “Milla is the most giving actress to work with and Paul has a limitless imagination. I felt like I had come home.”
Oded Fehr, familiar to audiences as Carlos Olivera, a member of the Umbrella forces special commando unit in Resident Evil: Apocalypse and Resident Evil: Extinction, also plays dual roles in the film. Fehr says that his return to the franchise makes perfect sense.
“If you can have a hundred Alices, why not have more Carloses, Ones and Rains?” he asks. “There are so many twists and turns that it’s going to be a blast. And it was great to be reunited with the ‘family’ from the films I did earlier.”
