Milla Jovovich as Alice |
This comes as a breath of fresh air, original star Milla Jovovich and director W.S. Anderson are re-teaming for
Resident Evil: Retribution.
Exclusive breaking news as Bloody Disgusting has learned that Milla Jovovich will be returning once again as "Alice" in Resident Evil: Retribution. We have also exclusively landed the news that Paul W.S. Anderson will direct from his own screenplay. Anderson directed both the first film in the franchise and Resident Evil: Afterlife 3D, which arrived in theaters last September.
Sienna Guillory had posted on Twitter
that she will be returning as "Jill Valentine," although we're being
told that she's being recast. Who should replace her? They are also
casting "Barry Burton", who was a member of S.T.A.R.S. (Special Tactics
And Rescue Service), and "Leon Scott Kennedy," a U.S. Government agent,
and previously an officer for the Raccoon City Police Department."
The newly titled pic is gearing up for a shoot this coming October that
will take Alice from Toronto, Canada all the way to Tokyo, Japan.
Plot details are under lock and key, but Sony Screen Gems is aiming to
have it in theaters come September 14, 2012. An October start date could
ensure this.
