Resident Evil: The Cast

Okay, I've finished up that little side-project. After a conversation with Libby the other day, and remembering a thread with a similar topic posted some time ago at a message board I hang out at on occasion, I decided to put together a list of actors that I would choose to play in movie versions of the Resident Evil games. None of that non-canon Milla Jovovich stuff, but movies that are more faithful to their source material. I did the six main chapters of the storyline, and left out any characters that are too minor to deserve any real attention. Some unknown actor can play those guys. But enough jibber-jabber, let's get to the lists.

• Leelee Sobieski as "Rebecca Chambers"
• Mark Wahlberg as "Billy Coen"

So that's that. Any comments, complaints, questions, and the like can be sent to the usual places. So now that that's out of the way, I have plenty of room to work on my next projects: those reviews I mentioned on Friday. I'm aiming to keep the names of those reviews a surprise until I get them posted, so start the guessing games now. Or don't start the guessing games, what do I care.
