So Now We Know....
Leon and Ada have been cast in the new live action movie Resident Evil Retribution. What does everyone think of Anderson's choices?
Leon will be played by Johann Urb
Ada will be played by Li Bingbing
I haven't seen either of these two act so I can only go by looks. I think they resemble their respective characters enough for me to be able to picture them in the roles. I'm very open to seeing what the result is and I hope they do well. I was preparing myself to be appalled by Anderson's take on Leon and Ada. Though I'm still ambivalent about it, I can't help but think how cool it would be if the characters were handled well, had a good amount of screen time and had plently of scenes with each other. But maybe that's too much to hope for considering how Alice-centred these movies are.... *Adjusts expectations* Okay, I hope they at least look hawt in costume.* :3
* And that Li Bingbing gets to wear the RE4 dress because she certainly has the legs for it.
One more thing before I shut up. Li Bingbing, in the above video, was in the process of learning English and she has a good grasp of the language but is still a little shaky. So this makes me wonder whether Anderson and co will decide on Ada having a Chinese accent instead of a North American one.
