Tamara Smart is set to play the younger role of Jade, while Siena Agudong will portray Billie.
The two characters will move together to New Raccoon City in the 2022 timeline of the show, EW reports.
The rest of the main cast consists of Adeline Rudolph, Paola Nuñez, Ahad Raza Mir, Connor Gossatti, and Turlough Convery.
While the outlet reports that “Wesker’s resurrection” is a secret, the show’s executive producer and showrunner Andrew Dabb did comment on the matter to the outlet.
“He’s immune to lava. I don’t want to give too much away, but I will say the explanation for why Wesker is the way that he is and how he is still alive go hand in hand.”
What are people saying about the Netflix series?
Once Netflix tweeted the news about the show’s release date and trailer, fans of the franchise chimed in with their thoughts.
One user wrote: “Why is it so difficult to adapt resident evil into other forms of media. This just looks like a generic teenage drama. It was already seeming like a dumpster fire before this trailer was revealed. At least welcome to raccoon city was FAITHFUL to the material”
A separate user wrote: “As a hardcore fan of the series. Why can we not wait for a series to come out before you all flip the lid. Its CONNECTED to resident evil with brand new characters set in a place we have never seen before.
“I am sure it will have the lore in place. Just wait and see then judge”
